Valentine’s Gift Guide!

Sunday, February 1st, 2009

Are you looking for the perfect Valentine’s gift for a pregnant mama or little one? I love celebrating Valentine’s Day as a parent, much more so than when it was more of a romantic holiday. I love making homemade Valentine’s cards with and for my family. I love making fun Valentine’s treats- anything heart shaped, pink, or red. I love showing my family just how much I love them!

Here are a few eco-friendly gift ideas for children from Clementine NW (click on the photos to shop):
