I feel like the luckiest girl to have Ben as my main Valentine and then 6 mini Valentineās! ;) Ben and I gave each other love letters and a house for this Valentineās day. (Haha. So for sure on a budget with presents for each other.) But… for the kiddos we wrapped up presents for some at home play! The kids werenāt able to do Valentineās at school this year, which they were kind of bummed about. But…we had a nice day celebrating love day together at home and these little gifts helped make it even more festive and fun! Today I wanted to share what I gathered up for each kiddo. All great budget friendly picks for Holiday or Birthday gifting!
(Iāve had some of these items since pre-Christmas – my little stash of saved deals- But I’ll link everything below for you!)
(Hunter, on the end, just woke up. as you can see. haha.)
I always like to have a little area set up for the Holiday!
The kids helped me tape up some hearts on the walls and blow up balloons…
it was a team effort to put together this pretty table!
LET’S CHAT PRESENTS!
Here’s the gifts we gathered up to give each kiddo on Valentine’s Day. We didn’t do a lot of candy because I wanted more “activity” type gifts in hopes to keep them busy/happy and not just a sugar crash. haha. You get me? I know the mamas do! ;)
I found these really cool outlined markers on Amazon…and split the pack between the two girls. They were a hit! I paired them with a heavy weight drawing pad from Target. It was cool seeing what they were doodling!
I went with Kinetic sand for the big boys because I wanted a non electronic activity for them to do together. They are always asking for it and this felt like the right time to say yes. ;) Sienna LOVES Simone Biles. I hear about her daily haha. So I was really excited when I found this gorgeous book about her life at Target. Sienna has been reading it to all the kids. She is so inspired by Simone and wants to be just like her!

Itāll be 14 years of marriage this summer (somehow) and these photos take me back to when he scooped me up as we walked in our first home. Now here we are, with all these cute kiddos and building a dream home?!! He is amazing how he loves us and takes care of our family.
