Happy Valentine's Day!

I'm sorry about the quashed text! It does this sometimes. Does anyone know why? (Or how to stop it!) I have edited it three times and it doesn't seem to make any difference. Can't keep playing around with it, as I have a million and one things to do, as usual! I'll try once more and then come back to it later.











Whether or not you have a partner to share Valentine's Day with, it's fun to share it with the kids. I have found three fab websites with lots of wonderful things to do with the kids this Valentine's Day. (My two always love an excuse to plan a party, cook up some delicious treats, or get all the craft stuff out on the kitchen table for a creative session!)
There are lots of ideas here, including crafts, cards and posters, recipes, romantic poems and films, and Valentine's day jokes and riddles. Most of the sites I have included are aimed at families or children and are well worth checking out at any time, but have special Valentine's pages.
My Top Three

1. Kaboose is a fantastic family network site, with some great suggestions for any time of year, but here are some fab Valentine's ideas:

Crikey, you've pushed the boat out on this! Really should check out the 'Dating your partner' item, though we're months away from even contemplating anything romantic (4 year old plus 9 week old = not a whole bundle of romance...)

I'm not sure if little ones or teenagers are worse!

I think dating a partner is a fab idea ... it's a shame how easily we get out of the habit of dating when we live together.

Happy Valentine's Day to you and Supermum!
