Valentine’s Day Ideas for the Littles

I like making Valentine’s Day feel just a little extra special for Rex and Willow. Growing up I remember coming home from school to a fun after-school snack / treat on the table my mom had made and a small pink package (pjs or a new top?)… which my sister and I would scream overAs little girls it felt like such a fun (slightly unexpected holiday) surprise.

This year I was hunting around for something small for R & W and since we have a Tahoe trip coming up I landed on new beanies, a pink beaded necklace for Willow and I’m still trying to come up with something small / additional for Rex. Maybe a book (he’s really into these!). But depending on the ages or what you have coming up (maybe something they need for their sports or for a trip?)… new pjs are always needed around our house (these are extra soft and a set Willow loves and this is another brand I love to gift them on special holidays)… jewelry, a play makeup set or a purse for the little girls and new sneakers for the boys. Also, The Real Real kids section is worth taking a browse for some lightly used kids gems!

Since both of my kids wear uniforms to school now I don’t realize when they’re in need of new clothes until we have somewhere to go / dress up for! It’s always nice to take a look at their closet and use a holiday as an excuse to get them something they actually need.

And if your little girl loves a tutu as much as Willow (she promptly changes into one as soon as she’s home from school)… something sparkly and pink is always a win for this 4 year old!
