All Things Valentine’s Day
Valentine’s Day has always been one of my favorite little holidays - after the rush of the end-of-year season, I love keeping things simple while still finding new ways to create meaningful moments for the people I love. This year, I’ve been sharing a mix of easy ideas, traditions, and small touches we’re doing with the girls to make the season feel special without overcomplicating it.
I created this page as a home for all of my Valentine’s Day content in one place - videos, stories, links, and ideas I’ve shared (and will continue to share) on social media. Whether you’re looking for a last-minute idea, something to save for next year, or just a little inspiration, I hope this makes it easy to find everything in one spot.
Scroll through the sections below to see each idea broken out with photos, videos, and links ✨

Valentines in the Nest
For Valentine’s Day this year, I kept the girls’ gift baskets simple, practical, and full of things they’ll actually use. I reused the same baskets and tags we’ve had for the past few years. While ours are older, I’ve linked similar items and kept the focus on a few thoughtful additions instead of lots of extras. Each basket included a dance-themed book (Tallulah’s Tap Shoes and Tallulah’s Tutu), a K-Pop Demon Hunters coloring book with new markers and crayons, cozy pajamas, a new outfit for their dolls (Hadley/Mckenna), and a kid-friendly microscope. I may add a small candy treat, but otherwise this felt like the perfect mix of fun, creative, and useful.
Last-Minute Valentine’s (Grocery Store Edition)
If Valentine’s Day snuck up on you, these classroom ideas can all be picked up during a regular grocery store run. No extra stops, no special orders -just simple, kid-friendly options that still feel festive and thoughtful. While these aren’t my original ideas, they’re inspired by Valentine’s classroom ideas I found on Pinterest and loved for their simplicity and ease, especially for last-minute class parties.
If you try any of these ideas, I’d love to see them - feel free to tag me on Instagram or send me a message. I’ll continue updating this page with any new Valentine’s Day ideas I share, so be sure to check back, and don’t forget to save this page to come back to next year 🤍
With love,
The Nest Collective
Creating beautiful, joy-filled Valentine moments for little ones (and their grownups).
