Fun Ideas for a Kid’s Valentine’s Party

Valentine’s Day is for lovers, right? Of course, that’s a common theme, but if you have kids, you know that it’s also a fun holiday for children. Hearts, flowers, and shades of pink and red all appeal to children, and Valentine’s cards come in just about any theme your little ones can imagine. This year, why not throw a fun kids’ Valentine’s party to celebrate the day?

· Bake some cookies or cupcakes. These are easy to bake, and fun for kids to decorate. You can even buy refrigerated cookie dough to make your part of the action easier. Once the goodies are finished baking, kids will enjoy eating them even more than they liked decorating them. Send all of your guests home with small boxes of cookies, and you won’t even need to provide a goody bag. Not enough room in your oven to bake the cookies quickly? Consider renting an extra oven to get the job done.

· Do some crafting. Taking into consideration the age of the children in attendance, find some fun crafts with a Valentine’s theme. Provide a few different options, giving them plenty of space- both literal and figurative- to be creative. Consider suggesting a project that would allow them to bring home a gift for a parent, to encourage giving on this holiday of love. Need an extra table so they can really spread out? It’s easy to rent what you’ll need.

· Play some games. Kids’ parties are not really complete without some fun games, so find a few that fit the theme and set them up ahead of time. You might also consider creating a photo booth by renting pipe and drape and providing your little guests with whimsical Valentine’s props like big cardboard hearts, fluffy feather boas, hot pink mustaches, sequined hats, and anything else you can dream up.

· Share the love. Use your Valentine’s party for a charitable cause. Make care packages for soldiers, donate some of the goodies you baked to the local fire station, or pack backpacks for homeless children. Helping kids find ways to give back is a really important way to teach them what love is really all about.
