Can you believe January is almost over and February is coming up! Which means Valentine’s Day is around the corner. Of course we have to start thinking about what our kiddos will be doing for school and planning ahead. Obviously we always turn to our friends at Minted as they have the cutest and most creative classroom cards! It’s so fun to see their new designs year after year and this year they really outdid themselves. If you have trouble finding just the right card don’t worry, they have something for everyone! We chose cards for our little ones and they are all so unique and fun! Their personalities shine through for each of them, take a closer look below and shop all of our favorites!

I chose this adorable Boot Scootin’ Valentine by Kiersten Garner for Henry hoping he would love it and I was so glad he did! He usually opts for anything sports related so I was happy he went western this year since it’s all the rage!! He chose this cute little packet of Gold Mine Gum to give to his buddies with the valentine since he loves chewing gum these days. The little stickers are cute to boot and complete it!

I have a kid who is more obsessed with her Stanley cup than anything else that she owns! So the “Fill My Cup” card by Pixel and Hank was the most perfect choice for Penny. She chose the “Grape Remix” color way and I love the complimentary colors of purple and orange together.
A lot of Penny’s friends have these silly “big dumb cups” so we decided that straw toppers would be a great gift to go along side this cutie card! My favorite little detail of these cards are the personalized stickers for the envelopes they just add one extra layer of fun.

Cruz is always a mystery to me when it comes to his Valentine choices. Each year he surprises me, and this year was no exception! I am super happy with his choice though as it is adorable! This “Friendship” card by Vera Lim is oh so cute and has the sweetest little pun. Plus, who doesn’t love potato chips?! They are a classic guilty pleasure that we all love! I also love the pretty blue color of this card! I added a sweet photo of Cruz with his big blue eyes to go with it! The adorable chip stickers make me so happy too! Mission accomplished!

The Capy Valentine’s by Ashley Presutti Beasley couldn’t be more perfect for Isla, she is absolutely obsessed with Capybaras. She was thrilled that minted offered this valentine, and she was happy to customize it to help represent her preppy, girly pop style. She decided to gift a cute little capybara keychain and some of her favorite Haribo heart gummy’s to her besties complete her valentine.

August is my kindergartner who loves to build! Rather than following the instructions on all his Legos, he uses his imagination to create amazing vehicles and robots of all shapes and sizes. We love to see what he comes up with! The minted Lego “Built to Be” Valentines by Alethea and Ruth were a no brainer! They’re so cute and colorful, he loves them as much as I do! We plan to give out lego bubble wands to all of his friends and add the adorable stickers to each and every envelope!

Court is now a 10 year old 5th grader so choosing Valentine’s isn’t exactly his ideal activity, haha! However we did find this “Vibes” card by Erin L. Wilson that we both thought was funny and cute! I mean, “It’s Giving Valentines”?! Too good! Both of my boys like pink and anything flashy so these colors really popped. Plus using the word “giving” is so slay… Haha, this is the world we live in now, help!! I opted for a simple tic tac toe game on the back as having his photo on it is a BIG no-no and I found Valentine themed Hershey kisses in colors that coordinated with the card. Add in the personalized stickers and you are set! Easy Peasy!
