It is time to start shopping (or past time) for Valentine’s Day gifts for your family or loved ones. Who you shop for might be different and that is okay. I try to think outside the box for gift ideas for all families and not just a nuclear family. Seeing I’m a single parent I do a Valentine’s Day with my kids. It is different than when they were little but we still make a fun day out of it.
The Manly Man Company is an amazing company with gifts for those hard to shop for! This is a great gift for anyone! Hearts, bouquets Beef Cards (these are really cute) and more that are beef jerky! These, and more are available from The Manly Man Company. This is a great way to give a gift that you can appreciate and eat! I ordered one of the cards for my son with his name on it in big letters. This can also be a great significant other gift.
Have a little outside fun with these cute FlightLine parachuteters. These two even light up and flash so they are easy to find at night too. You can get a bundle of four for $19.99 on Amazon.
The Office fans will love this set of a dress shirt, tie and overalls. This outfit can be a gift for any occasion but I thought it would be great for my son, since he is hard to shop for. The outfit, as well as others (for Halloween, Christmas and other occasions) are available from TV Store Online.
These two cute t-shirts are from TV Store Online too. The Cat in the Hat shirt is for myself and the Friends shirt is for my daughter. I thought it was cute to have some new shirts added to our wardrobe. They come in small to XXL sizes and in multiple colors. The Cat in the Hat one is perfect for Dr Seuss day at school.
Have fun with the butterfly habitat! Great introduction to spring. You can order butterflies for them with the voucher inside. You can learn to care for them and watch the caterpillars grow, form into a cocoon and hatch into a beautiful butterfly. Not only is this educational but having the butterflies inside is safer for them. They don’t have to worry about predators or running out of food.
I’m loving this dual from Shore Buddies. They are both made out of recycled plastic. Stephen Seagull has a button on both, when you press it you can hear the sound of like a real seagull. The mission of Shore Buddies is to keep marine life safe and keep plastics out of the oceans. I love how they are a cute gift and recycled.
If you have a SO this is is a great way to give a gift that isn’t food and something you can both enjoy. Fog of Love is a game for two people. Each game is 60-120 minutes. The game is age 17+. It is also a great way to get to know someone better too. They also have diversity games and extension packs available. It is available on Amazon for $50.
You can do some fun crafts with the kids with delicious Wonderful Halos. They are a great snack for any time of day. This craft is super easy for kids of all ages to make these Love Bugs too. You can find Wonderful Halos at your local grocery store and the supplies are just a few things you can get from your local craft store. I used some toothpicks, gilttery heart stickers in two sizes, googly eyes and some glitter.
If you have a Circuit Joy you can check out their templates for Valentine’s Day cards. I made some to mail to my friends and some for my kids too. I have a mat to put the cards in and can chose the card color and the insert that goes behind it. I’m still learning on how to put the pen in it to write on the inside of the card.
No matter what you do, I hope you find ways to make Valentine’s Day about you and your family and you all enjoy it. This might not be a holiday for us to eat in a restaurant or do much else but we can still have fun at home.
What are you doing with your family for Valentine’s Day?
