Hallmark always knows how to say ‘I love you’ so at Valentine’s Day it’s only natural that I would know that they would have the perfect gift ideas. We all know that they have cards that say everything we want to and more but they have found other ways to say just we want to say.
Literally.
Hallmark Recordable Storybooks record our voice to tell the story. Your child can follow along and when you are there and when you aren’t they can hear you tell them the story every time they want to hear it. Last year I got Gavin the ‘All The Ways I Love You’ book and he loves having it when I travel.
Here’s a quick video to show you just how they work.
We also found these Blooming Expressions Flowers in our local grocery store. Okay, I didn’t find them Gavin did. He’s been all over them since. I’m super excited give one to him this Valentine’s Day since I know how much he loves them. A simple token that will go a long way. They have four different messages so they aren’t only limited to giving them to your sweetheart love but the other loves in your life too!
Here is the inside of the flower for Gavin. It’s not mushy gushy love but perfect for my child. I love that there are different phrases so that they fit all the different people in your life. The fact that they open and close make them fun and sweet. A cute way to have your note of endearment last on far past Valentine’s day- unlike real flowers.
Don’t forget those kids need Valentine’s for their classroom friends too! There are new Classroom Valentines that allow them to upload their photos and become the star of the card! New designs include Star Wars, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Disney Princesses. Check out the full line at Hallmark.com and enjoy a 30% discount off of $10 or more by using CLASS30 at checkout (valid until Feb. 14). And if you’re heading to a Hallmark Gold Crown Store anytime soon, they have some fun new innovation and paper craft greetings for Valentine’s Day this year that you’ll want to check out. There are cards that light up, cards that play your favorite songs and some really unique paper craft designs.
So, there is just a quick view of some of your options with Hallmark this Valentine’s Day! Make sure to stop by your local Gold Crown Store today!

I just love the recordable book and blooming flower, they would be awesome to win, but I would also love to get my husband the Sweet on You Pepe Le Pew. It’s kinda funny, we have been having a problem with skunks in the area and this would be so cute to give to him.
If I win I would give the book to our little angel and the flower to my MIL.
Thanks this is awesome giveaway.
