But homemade Valentines are extra special.
My east coast grands, thanks to their creative Mama, (my daughter), made Mexican-styled flowers on sticks for Valentine's Day.
Each Valentine has a lollypop wedged in the middle of the flower!
The flower colors sizzle.
I'll bet anything the non-traditional Valentines are going to be a hit with the kids at school.
WHAT DO YOU REMEMBER ABOUT YOUR CHILDHOOD VALENTINE DAYS?

Fun and colorful. In elementary school we would make folders that we would hang on the back of our chairs like little mailboxes that classmates could place Valentine's cards in. At least that's what I remember though it is a foggy memory. I used to have one of the folders and the valentine's but have absolutely no idea where it might be now. :/
Those are so cool and creative, Susan. Your daughter did a lovely job making them. Love all the bright colors and the lollypop idea. Oh, you reminded me to send the grandkids Valentines. I usually get them the traditional ones that we shared in school. Those are my favorite. : )

I love sending Valentines cards and getting them. Your daughter did a great job with those creative looking Valentines for the children. I always loved putting together my mailbox at school and decorating it for Valentine's day. We used shoe boxes.
What a cute idea. When I taught preschool the parents were very creative.
Your daughter did a great job. I remember in grade school decorating white bags with red hearts and doilies. We would drop Valentine cards in each bag for our classmates. After forty plus years, I reconnected with a classmate and we sent friendship Valentines this year. We live four states apart now.
