As you all know, we're anti-resolutions on this blog, and rather make small changes so this week I'm showcasing some books and products that can help you make the small changes in your life, that may lead to larger ones! ENJOY!
Today- let's start thinking ahead to Valentine's Day- you going to go for the same old same old? Or are you and your kids, gonna shake it up some this year? We can help!
Ah Pear Tree Greetings, you SO SO SO rock! Just when I think they can't beat the great New Year's Resolution cards, they send me a sample pack of their ADORABLE Valentine's Day cards!
Tired of the same old boxed character based Valentine's Day cards for your kids to hand out at school? Well Pear Tree has some excellent alternatives:
Joy (aka Kiddo)'s fav sample:
Dinosaur Fever (right) : It is an adorable COLORABLE card on nice medium weight stock! It also comes in robot and owl! But she said the dino was cool and I have to agree that it is good for boys AND girls. AND how neat they can color it too! Win win as far as we're concerned!
Sprinkled Cupcake (left): OK, so it was a REAL close vote- Joy actually wanted these for her upcoming birthday! I love that again, they can be for boy or girl, and still get the sentiment across in a girly way!
We then decided that the Love Coupon (right) was perfect for the Grandparents and other family members-you get to customize with a photo on the back and the card is good for one hug! Perfect if you need to send to relatives miles away, or your sweetheart!
And as always, Pear Tree has MATCHING labels for all the cards! Even the basic photo cards would look great with the Bee Mine heart Label!
Aren't they all adorable?
AND Pear Tree has some EXCELLENT specials to save on the Valentine's Day cards AND FREE shipping on their promo page, so be sure to check it out!
We love them and are trying to decide for sure which ones we want to order! And one of you is going to have the SAME problem, because Pear Tree is going to give one of you:
Giveaway:
24 free Kids Valentine’s Day Cards!
( you get to choose whichever Kids Valentine’s card you want- YEAH)
This will be a quick giveaway to allow for design and shipping time!

Hmmm, differently? I would hope that this year would be different in that my husband and I would actually go spend some quality time together! Hopefully we'll at least be able to have a nice dinner without sippy cups and crackers.

not sure what we will do different.. We take our daughter on a Valentine lunch to Red Lobster, give them a box of Chocolates and I make them a flower arrangement of some sort. their hubbys can get them roses... we also give the grand kids a small box of candy, and a card... Hubby then takes me out on that weekend for a special dinner.. Maybe I will make him a small quilt for his chair for his valentine gift.

I'm going to let my kids choose their own Valentine cards this year. Novel idea, I know. I always just grab cards from the store and let them choose from what I picked up.

Since my kids are old enough to finally 'get it' - I think this year for v-day we'll do hearts/red everything for breakfast and dinner! It'll be fun for me to figure out the menu and fun for them to see everything in red!

This Valintines Day my youngest can not have dairy so no chocolate, which is what she has always had as she can not have any food colouring at all - so we will have to be creative in what she gets, perhaps a toy - or a adventure, we will have to think about that.
