Valentines Tradition in America

What are the Valentines Tradition in America? That is the questions my children asked me after they asked me what family traditions we have as a family unit. It got me thinking of our tradition of a unique Valentines idea. Then it inspired me to add to my family tradition with another layer of tasty fun.

The Valentines traditions in America has always been a box of candy in my case Hershey kisses and flowers. I have always had another tradition for my children. I buy them t-shirts for Valentine’s day. The way they find their gift is I have always set up a trail of Hershey’s Kisses leading them to their prize at the end. I make sure to decorate our dining room and create a heart filled treat for breakfast. I have a heart pancake guide and a heart muffin tin. I think it is so important to have things that you do every year. I hope that my children keep up this family tradition because it is so special to us. I was looking for something to add, and I realized that there are tons of Unique Valentines ideas on the CelebrateWithHersheys.com website.
