Handmade Valentine’s For Kids

Yup, it’s that time of year again. Valentine’s Day is almost here, and for many, that means the same old routine of boring store-bought gifts and candy for the kids. This year, why not think outside the chocolate box? We’ve selected five adorable handmade children’s gifts from Etsy to make your February 14 a little sweeter.

 

For Girls: Talk about bling! This ruby-red sparkly ring is fit for a princess of any age. The whimsical heart is made of resin and glitter and is attached to an adjustable silver-plated ring. This beauty comes packaged in a cute heart-shaped tin just in time for Valentine’s Day.

For Boys: Add some swag to your little cupid’s outfit this Valentine’s Day. Not only are these adorable red suspenders practical, they’ll add a bit of flair to your son’s casual look. These stretchy, fully adjustable suspenders are ideal for children ages newborn to 5 years, and are available in a variety of other colors.

For Softies: This baby panda bear might be small, but he has a big heart! This little guy is hand-crocheted with soft wool yarn and lots of love, and he’s small enough to be lovingly toted around by your little one in a backpack or stroller. The coolest part about this lovable bear? His heart is removable and can be worn as a pin!
