As someone who nannied for nearly seven years, Valentine's Day activities were some of my favorite activities to do with the kiddos, especially when it's too cold to go outside.
It's so easy and simple to create fun activities for the kiddos, add some color to the winter months, and teach them the value of making gifts from scratch.
