Valentine Gift Ideas

Here are some small gift ideas (most $10 or less) that we wish were available when our older kids were smaller. A lot of them are fun sensory tools or hands on activities to enjoy during free time.
”Finding the Right Gift for the Little Ones in my Life”

Now that our kids are older, I struggle trying to figure out what to get my niece, age 5 and my great nephew, age 2. What my kids liked 15-20 years ago is different than today. Both of their birthdays are in December and then there’s Christmas. Being an educator, I always enjoy buying books and learning toys. These are some gifts I have gotten over the past few years. Interactive toys and books to help fuel the imagination and their love for reading. If you are in a similar situation in which your kids are older but you now have younger children in the family, I hope this is helpful. These will work for grandchildren too!
