From delicious desserts to healthy after-school snacks, these 20 healthy Valentine’s Day treats for kids offers something for everyone!
My children love Valentine’s Day. From choosing the perfect Valentine for each friend in the class to making their special mailboxes for school, we’re all in! They also LOVE the candy and sweets that come along with it. And I’m with them! Give me a chocolate covered caramel and you’ve won me over!
Because the girls are getting bombarded with candy and other super sweet treats at school, dance and otherwise, I try to find a few alternatives that are still sweet but also offer a hint of some nutrition (even if that is a strawberry dipped in chocolate!). That’s why I gathered 20 of my favorite Valentine’s Day treats from my favorite kid-friendly bloggers and registered dietitians to share with you. Hopefully, you’ll find a fun idea from this list that you can make for (or with) your sweeties!
