I know, I know… Vday is overrated and a Hallmark holiday. But, anyone with kids knows that it can be a super fun way to incorporate some fun family or friend time(or a time to give back to others). See below for WE EVENTS kids valentines picks.

BE KIND
Kindness Rocks | Spread some love
This is one of my favorite crafts as it incorporates a project, spending time together, giving back and exercise! All you need is some clean rocks, paint or markers. Write kind words on the rocks and let dry. Next time you are out for a walk leave them by trees and guaranteed when people walk by them they will smile.
Doggie Love | Adopt me Bandanas
Help dogs at local shelters get adopted with cute bandanas. All you need is some fabric(I like white jersey from Joann Fabrics) and paint pens. Write ADOPT ME in big letters on the bandana and decorate with cute colorful images. Drop off a local dog shelter.
