vdaynoncandy No joke, I still have a massive bag of Halloween candy in our house.  It’s been sitting on the top of our fridge for months and my kids probably only had a total of 5 candy pieces from each of their loot bags since they collected their candy. It’s such a waste and I know most houses are the same way!

I went on a search to find some non-candy Valentine’s Day options for this year. I don’t want my kids to be that kid that doesn’t give candy but at the same time, who needs another bag of conversation hearts?  I wanted to find something that would at least be fun and exciting for the kids to get amidst their bag of other Valentine’s card goodies.  Here are some options I thought were good!
