Getting creative with Valentine's cards is tricky! My children's classes do not allow sweets, so we had to come up with different ways to celebrate the day with them. This is a list of some simple, cheap, and cute ideas for non-candy valentine gifts to give your children's friends or classmates.

  1. Small pretzel bags
  2. Pencils
  3. Heart shaped erasers
  4. Red or pink wristbands
  5. Bookmarks
  6. Crayons
  7. Chalk
  8. Foam stickers
  9. Glow sticks
  10. Yo-yos

Happy Valentine's Day!
