Valentines Cards - Sending one to a child?

Posts: 1,711 Forumite
I have a friend who ALWAYS brags about how many cards they've recieved.( To the point of ringing up at various times of the day to update that he recieved another card)
So this year a group of my friends have decided to send cards to his son.
With the hope that the 3 year old Son recieves more cards than our friend. (And shuts him up)
However Im now stuck - I refuse to buy a card - But what kind of thing is okay to put on a valentines card for a 3 year old boy - Im currently thinking lots of red hearts and stickers???

Love is the answer. At least for most of the questions in my heart,
Like why are we here? And where do we go?And how come it's so hard?
It's not always easy,And sometimes life can be deceiving,
I'll tell you one thing, its always better when we're together

Hi Phunkles, do you know what he's into such as In the night garden? theres a cute picture of iggle piggle kissing upsy daisy here. You could use that, maybe do a 3d decoupage card with it.You cant take a step forward with both feet on the ground0

ah yes but there is a flip sideI don't send my girls any, but had to tell you this, my youngest dd 10 has been friends with a boy in her class sinc reception, she calls him her husband to be, they spend every playtime together, Tuesday she goes to school, and comes running back to me with a card and a balloon on a stick he has got her, the card has to my special girlfriend on the front:-), guess what we had to go and buy after school tuesday evening,

my son who is 8 wanted to make his "girlfriend" a card which he did last weekend it's been ready to send ever since.
Today, he was in tears as she has broken up with him (as far as I can work out this happens about one a week). As I tried to console him on the drive home from schol he said "she'll regret it when I kill myself" !!!!!!!!!!!! what the!!!!!!!:eek:
No more valentines cards for him until he's 21. I woud never have allowed him to buy a card but I thought it would be nice for him to make on when he asked if he could. More trouble than they're woth IMHO.0
