Yes, it is that time of year again to dig out the Valentines Day Books for Kids (you may want to give some of these lovely books as a gift, combine them with some cute Origami Bookmarks and they make a fabulous present)!!! We have a handful of lovely “love themed” books to read with the kids all year round, but Valentines Day is a great opportunity to dig them out again and talk about those we love and what Valentine’s Day actually means! We love Valentine’s Day Bookmarks! I love discovering and reading new books with the kids all the time (and we have rather a huge collection of kids books in our house, I can never resist to get a new one…). But we do try and do a mixture of “new books” for our “Home library”, as well as reserving books at our local library and discovering new reads too! This year, I want to get each of the kids a Valentines Day Books for Kids, that they can bring into school with them and donate to the School Library. Here are a selection of some of the sweetest, cutest, but also FUNNIEST Valentines Day Books for Kids out there are the moment!!!
