48 Non Candy Valentines Ideas with Free Printables

I was doing the usual rounds at Target last week when I spotted the valentines.

So many memories came flooding back:

… the time that I lost the Valentine’s Day teddy bear parade in kindergarten to a kid whose parents most definitely did all of the work for him (yes I remember and yes it still ticks me off)

… the time I redeemed myself and won the Valentine’s Day Box Contest in 4th grade

… the time I got a kid in trouble by reporting him to the teacher because he wrote a bunch of creepy questions on all of the girl’s valentines, oh the memories.

I had been seeing a bunch of cute ideas floating around Pinterest for non candy valentines, an idea that I can totally get behind.

I decided to round up my favorites so you can find a non candy valentine that your kiddo will hand out with pride this Valentine’s Day!

  1. I really love these ideas , what is great is that there are some children who cannot eat the candy or chocolate at school because of allergies and it makes them feel excluded but valentines like this are fun and safe !

  2. And then I found out that we're not supposed to send “treats” or gifts with Bean's valentines. Boo! I guess I'll have to save the ideas for when she's older.
