and Galentines

February 14th doesn’t just need to be a day where you express romantic love. Let your heart lead the way and celebrate all kinds of love this Valentine’s Day. There may be one cherished close friend, a special little group you celebrate Galantine’s with, or a sister from another mister who makes everything that little bit better, whoever they are, send them a card and let them know they’re special to you, with one of these lovely messages.

For the Kids

Along with celebrating your friends, telling your kids how much you love them, and helping them to express their love for others, is a really fun and important thing to do on Valentine’s Day. Although the words written in these Valentine cards won’t be romantic, February 14th is still a wonderful day to express appreciation and affection, share kind and loving thoughts with your kids, and help them share their own feelings with the people most important to them.

 

  • You make the world a lovelier place. Love you lots and lots
  • Every day with you is the nicest of all. Have an extra-special day
  • You’re just funny, kind and an all-round amazing daddy! What’s not to love!
  • You’re such a kind and loving mummy. Every time I’m with you I burst with happiness
  • Hope you know that you’re our favourite person. Love you to the moon and back!
  • Wishing you everything that makes you heart happiest today!

We hope these suggestions make it easier for you to express your true feelings on Valentine’s Day, so just use them as they are or as a starting point for your own special message. But, whichever you choose, just let your heart lead the way and remember that Valentine’s Day is a lovely opportunity to show and tell someone you love them, not an annual test each February 14th!
