Valentines’ Cards

Has your young son or daughter finished preparing their Valentine’s cards for their class mates yet? Ever wonder what to do with the left over few cards from the box. Like many of us you probably wish you could hang on to them for next year so they could be used but don’t want to add them to the paper clutter in your home. Here’s a couple of different ideas. Hopefully one will fit your home.

  1. Store them with your craft supplies and use them for craft projects.
  2. Send them to your children’s daycare so they can use them for craft projects.
  3. Keep a box of gift cards and greeting cards and add them to this box.
  4. If your Christmas decoration box is easily accessible, store them in there. They will be ready to pull out when you put next year’s Christmas decorations away.

Happy Valentines Day! Low Clutter Children’s Gifts

For many people, the traditional children’s gifts or tokens at Valentine’s Day are plush toys and chocolate. This year, I was particularly challenged as my 13 year old daughter has given up chocolate for Lent. We no longer accumulate plush toys as she has purged her collection down to her few very favourites. My solution is to bake a (vanilla) cake for the family and yes, it will be pink or red(ish).

Do you have suggestions to offer the readership? What do other people use as clutter free, candy free gifts or tokens to the kids?

Add you comments below and let us know your solutions.
