February 14 is coming up soon, but Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to be all about romance! Use these fun celebration tips to plan a day your whole family will remember.

1. Plan a family dinner. Get dressed up and try a new restaurant or have a fancy at-home dinner. 
2. Snuggle up for a family movie night. Grab some blankets and pillows, pop some popcorn, and cozy up on the couch and watch a movie together. 
3. Bake a special treat. Get out your aprons, turn on some music, and whip up a special Valentine’s treat for the family to enjoy after dinner.
4. Have a special family game night. Load up on appetizers and snacks and plan a night full of fun board games and card games.
5. Say “I Love You.” Go around the dinner table and have everyone share one reason they love each member of the family.
6. Make cards and spread the love. Gather pink and red paper or premade cards from the store and make valentines for family, friends, or neighbors. Add candy for a special treat.
7. Go to the library and pick out some books to read together. :

           – “Full, Full, Full of Love” by Trisha Cooke
           – “The Day it Rained Hearts” by Felicia Bond
           – “Happy Valentine’s Day, Curious George” by N. DeAngelo
           – “Snowy Valentine” by David Petersen
           – “The Berenstain Bears’ Valentine Party” by Jan & Mike Berenstain
