Gifts for children are arguably some of the cutest items to shop. And Valentine's Day gifts for kids are no exception. I’ve always found such joy in giving loved ones special treats for this holiday, but it’s been even more rewarding to shop Valentine’s Day gifts for my daughter now that I’m a mom. This year, I’ll be adding to her stuffed animal collection, most likely with one of her favorite Jellycat stuffies and a few other little gifts. For older kids, I love giving hands-on holiday-themed gifts like LEGO kits, sticker sets, coloring books, and Valentine’s Day themed clothing.
With so many adorable options to choose from, remember that the perfect gift is one that will make your child light up with a big smile. “Valentine’s Day at our house is all about simple, fun traditions,” says lifestyle influencer and mom of two, Ashley Brooke Chambers. Her family starts the season of love in mid-January with matching Valentine’s Day pajamas. And on the morning of the fourteenth you can find them eating heart-shaped pancakes and gifting picture books to their kids. So, whether you’re ready to go all out or are looking for a little treat for the kiddo in your life, read on to find some great gift ideas to inspire your Valentine’s Day shopping.
