Looking for some Valentine’s fun with your kids, without throwing a party? Perhaps your child could invite his best friend over for a wonderful afternoon or evening of cooking up some tasty morsels to celebrate. If the idea appeals, you could make:
- A batch of Pokey Brownies
- Heart-shaped cookies
- Real chocolate pudding
- A dozen or so decorative cupcakes (get the cupcake
pan at Amazon.com)
- Try a Valentine’s candy recipe of your choosing.
Speaking of treats, for kids this holiday is all about chocolates and candies. It is definitely a sweet day! If you are looking for some original candy ideas to give your kids for Valentine’s Day, here are some suggestions:
- Chocolate hearts and lips
- Hershey’s Kisses
- Red Hots
- Gummy hearts and lips
- Heart lollipops
- Conversation hearts
The Candy Warehouse has an excellent selection of bulk, novelty, and unique candies, and offers particularly good deals if you need to buy large amounts.
To give, wrap treats with white or red tissue (left over from Christmas!) and seal with a heart.
