17 Valentine's Day Gift Ideas for Kids of All Ages
Valentine's Day is not just about romantic love. It is also about family love and friend love. Self-love. Parent-child love. Every day is a good day to tell someone that they are loved, our kids especially, but Valentine's Day really celebrates that. Because they might not get the traditional Valentine's experience at school with shared snacks and valentines, why not treat them to some small, but awesome gifts at home?
We found easy, affordable, and fun Valentine's Day gifts for kids of all ages that they will love. There's ideas for toddlers, like squishies and a book. We've also rounded up inspiration for older kids, like a book of jokes and doggy heart pajamas, as well as gifts for tweens and teens, like candy, a tie-dye sweater, or heart socks. Socks are always a hit! No matter which gift, they'll feel the love, no matter what.
This delightful Pusheen and Kai Teddy Bear Plush is an ultra-soft 9.5” plush that shows Pusheen radling her adorable white Kai teddy bear. A must-have for teddy bear enthusiasts these plushies are designed for both easy cleaning with their surface-washable construction and maximum snuggle factor.
Books are always a good idea, and adults aren't the only ones who love them these days. Kids love new books, and they make great gifts for toddlers, too. This book My Little Lovebug can be personalized with the child's name and it has the right theme for Valentine's Day.
Squishies! Kids love them because they're so fun to squeeze. (And maybe some adults, too.) This pack of six sweet donut squishies include valentines notes on them, which make them a perfect gift for one or a few kids this year.
Super soft, cozy pajamas are always a great gift. These are made from 30% organic cotton and 70% bamboo from viscose fabric and feature an adorable heart print (that look a lot like candy conversation hearts).
With not many places to go due to the health crisis, staying in and baking or cooking makes for a fun Valentine's Day activity. Make it even more special by gifting the kiddo with a personalized heart baking apron.
The TonieBox is a unique audio system designed just for kids, perfect for creating a screen-free experience. Just set up the TonieBox audio player, pop on a Tonie (like the ones in this bundle, Elsa, Moana, and Mirabel), and listen to stories, songs, activities, and more.
Kids love jokes. There's a reason they're on the back of juice boxers or lollypop wrappers. Take their jokes up a notch with this joke book, geared toward Valentine's Day and with jokes appropriate for kids. It goes right with the saying, "Live, Laugh, Love."
For older kids who love art and getting creative, this "Sweet Hearts" wooden bead set is a perfect Valentine's Day gift. It's a super fun activity toy that matches the love and pink and red theme of the holiday. The bracelets or necklaces made are an added bonus.
Chocolate on Valentine's Day isn't a new concept, but it's one that is always welcome. For the kids who are less about hearts and love and more about video games, give them this chocolate bar that is shaped like a video game controller.
Kids who love to play with Lego bricks will love this Lego cupid dog for Valentine's Day. It's a fun toy (that takes time to put together — gotta get those brain juices going) and it has a Valentine's Day theme. The dog comes with its own heart and cupid's bow.
Remember these toys? They're not just a blast from the past, but these viewfinders are still around for today's kids to enjoy. We included this one on the list because it can be customized with family photos for the kids to see whenever they peer into the binocular reel viewer. Now that's love.
If there's a budding baker in the household, we recommend the gift of a good cookbook. And not just any cookbook, but a Valentine's Day themed one from Taste of Home with good, sweet treats they will love. Get it? Plus, the second part of the gift is eating what they make.
Give your kids something delicious to snack on this Valentine's Day. This heart-shaped cake contains candied wild strawberries and decadent dark chocolate. It's guaranteed to be a crowd pleaser!
Making our homes cute, festive, and cozy has been a trend since social distancing measures have forced everyone to be home a lot more. That includes kids' rooms. This heart string light is a great gift idea for the kid looking to change up his space.
Tweens and teens will adore this bath bomb set, and it's a great way to teach them about self-care and self-love, especially on Valentine's Day, whether they have a special someone or not. It comes with 12 bath "droplets."
Tie-dye is back in style, as is loungewear. Whether it's on the weekend or during virtual learning, big kids will love this vintage-style crew-neck sweater. It's a peachy-pink color for a Valentine's Day look that's festive, but not too obvious.
There is nothing wrong with festive socks, and these Valentine's Day ankle socks are perfect. They feature red lips and the world "love" on them, and well, it can't get any more Valentine-y than that.
