Valentine’s Day is approaching and many choose to celebrate with sweets, something many parents don’t necessarily like. Whether you’re avoiding too much sugar or your child has a food allergy, sometimes it’s hard to find non-candy Valentine’s Day treats.
That’s why we made this very short video to show you how easy it is to make these adorable non-candy Valentine’s gifts for children. Your kids can also help you make them in just a few minutes! You can easily customize these jars for other holidays or birthdays by simply swapping out the heart stickers and stamps for your child’s favorite characters.
