Valentine’s Day is this week and though it's a great time to celebrate your partner, it's also a BIG holiday for kids. From Valentine's cards to lollipops and chocolates, your children will be wanting to celebrate accordingly.
I hate that most of the treats given out during Valentine's Day are filled with artificial coloring and refined sugars. I understand you can not control everything your child eats when they are at school or away, but when they are home I aim to give them healthier options and create a healthy lifestyle for them to follow (even on holidays).
Here are a few healthy treat options I wanted to share from my family to yours that your kids will love!
