You're Cool, Don't Change Valentines

Jamie from C.R.A.F.T.. has been collecting catchy little Valentine phrases to share with you on her blog.  I am always looking for something cute that isn't to mushy.  First because I don't want my kids giving people cards that say "I Will Love You Forever" and second because my son doesn't want to give cards that say "I Will Love Your Forever".  At least not yet.

So I have been on the lookout for just the right valentine idea and here are a couple that I think might fly with my kids:

Jac o' lyn Murphy found some chocolate coins and printed up a tag that says Don't Ever Change:


My son loves chocolate coins, so I know this one would get his seal of approval.

This printable set from Style Crush are really cute, but again I don't love the phrases that are a little to intense:



I think the tape that says let's mix is funny, but I am pretty sure none of the first graders in Lou's class know what a mix tape is.  I do like the cupcake and the ice cream cone though, so I might print out a few of those for Lou to give to her friends.  A popsicle version of the You're Cool valentine would be cute too.  And I think I have a cute popsicle image somewhere.

If you want to see more cute valentine ideas, head over to Jamie's blog and check them out HERE and HERE.

That's hilarious about the mix tape. I also wondered about the typewriter??? Doubt that the kiddos have any idea what one of those are! I love them though. Very cute.
