Valentine’s Day is an exciting holiday for all! It’s all about the love, friendship, and kindness - and it’s amongst kids’ favorite holidays. Here are some tips on how to throw a fun kids’ Valentine’s Day party.

Valentine’s Day is about giving to others. Children typically exchange store-bought valentines with each other, but homemade cards are more personal and much more fun to create! Making your own valentines is a fun way to have a creative activity and send a heartfelt message.

No wonder kids love Valentine’s Day, it has some of the best candy! Set up a candy buffet with an arrangement of goodies that each guest could hand pick for their own treat bag. Provide different chocolates, candy hearts, and whatever else you think will let the little valentines know just how sweet they are. You could also make the event more thrilling by bringing in a Valentine’s Day pinata.

Last but not least! Book some entertainment that the kids will fall in love with. A puppet show is a great option, as you could request your kids to be a part of the story. Hire a magician to spread the magic of this lighthearted day. What kid doesn’t love animals? Have a petting zoo come to the house and let the kids share all the love in their hearts with some cute, furry creatures.
