Trying to cut just a little bit of sugar out of Valentine’s Day? Check out these fun Non-Candy Valentines Ideas! They are great for creating healthier habits for your children and being more inclusive to kids who have food allergies.
Why Non-Candy Valentines?
I love candy just as much as anyone, but some holidays the kids can just be overloaded with treats. So, I thought I’d put together a handful of sugar free, non-candy Valentine’s options. These are also great when you have kids in your class with food allergies and want to make sure that everyone gets the same Valentine! They can also provide a way for your child to give unique Valentines and last longer depending on what they decide to give.
Non-Candy Valentine Ideas
In case you are feeling the same as me, tired of so many treats, here are a few fun printable valentines. I generally like to print them on thick cardstock. Then, once cut out, attach them to your Valentine gift with string or a stapler.
- “Blowing Kisses your way” is the perfect valentine to attach to some fun bubbles. Bubble Valentine PDFÂ
- “You are O-FISH-ally my friend” can be attached to a bag of cheesy goldfish crackers or pretzel goldfish! FISH Valentine PDF
- “You are the apple of my eye” valentine. You can attach it to an apple, apple juice, apple sauce pouch, or even to some cute apple stickers or an apple-shaped eraser.  Apple Valentine PDF
- “Wishing you Loads of Love” valentine. Attach it to a matchbox car or truck.  Red Truck PDF
- “You make my Heart Bounce”. Simply attaching a ball is great for kids of all ages. Be careful to make sure the bouncy ball is big enough not to be a choking hazard to younger siblings.  Heart Bounce PDF
