Valentine's Day is just around the corner and what better time to experiment with food while also learning valuable thinking skills by making edible Valentines?! The bonus is that this activity also serves as a wonderful way to bring some peace back to the table for families that are dealing with picky eaters. No pressure, just a fun activity that has some food in the vicinity or for craft purposes {much can be learned about food by using it in other ways!}.

Planning your Valentine Activity
  • Have regular Valentine cards to fill out or make just in case anyone isn't comfortable with the edible Valentine activity. This will allow the child to still participate without feeling "left out" or pressured to do something with food that they're not comfortable with
  • Pick an easy to assemble Valentine food craft. It could be as simple as making strawberry milk or as elaborate as decorating a heart shaped cookie or making a heart shaped sandwich. Check here , here and here for some fantastic ideas for easy Valentine food crafts
  • Serve a few of your picky eater's safe snack foods for them to munch on as they are working-the edible Valentine supplies will serve as a "new" food for them to get comfortable with

Until next time, keep growing and blooming!
