Inspiration from Valentine's Day Around the World ♡ A Cute Petit Gift Idea Collection from "Valentine for Kids" ♩

Party culture is amazing in foreign countries♡

Halloween, Easter, Christmas... Foreign events have such incredible decorations and stylish concepts that I can't help but admire them＊

Recently, while browsing Instagram, I realized that foreign Valentine's Day is also really cute.

Speaking of Valentine's Day abroad, the famous image is "men giving women roses or lingerie," and I didn't have much of an impression beyond that, but it turns out that there’s a "friend chocolate culture" in foreign countries too.

It's called "Valentine for school" or "Valentine for kids," where mothers create cute gifts for their children to take to school to distribute to their friends♡

Among these adorable ideas for children's friend chocolate Valentine's gifts, there are many that are inspired by international culture and are super cute, so let me introduce them♡

I've picked out some things that might be great references for small gifts or hospitality♩

Get inspired by overseas children’s Valentine's Day♡

<1>

Attach a heart-shaped tag to a heart-shaped cookie and give it as a gift.

I was shocked by how stylish this idea is...! (And it’s practical too!) It seems perfect for wedding favors as well♡

➡︎ There are so many cookie cutters available in various sizes and shapes, and they are pretty affordable＊

A card-type gift with kiss chocolates arranged like a game♡

Tic-Tac-Toe is the Japanese name for the game we know as "X and O"＊ With two colors of kiss chocolates, it feels just like playing a game♩

<3>

Tie a bright red heart balloon to a card♡ This alone makes for a stylish gift♡

(Seeing things like this makes me realize that cuteness and style don't always correlate with price....!)

Put a tag on Swiss Miss (a staple cocoa in foreign countries) for a small gift.

Swiss Miss is sold at Costco too♩

Attach a mini figure to the card. Think Toy Story soldiers♩

<6>

Here’s another idea: attach a toy doll to the card and tie it with a ribbon♡

<7>

This idea involves tying a mini car with a ribbon♩ It could also be applied for escort cards or place cards♡

<8>

Stick an animal figure onto the card with washi tape♡

"I am WILD about you" means I’m crazy about you♡

It conveys a sense of being wild in love!

<9>

An idea for designing message cards♩

Isn’t it too cute to have a message typed out from a typewriter?♡

<10>

A gift with a special touch, where you create the recipient's name with sweets♡

<11>

Instead of handing over the sweets as they are, you could attach them to a card as a base to add some style.

This is an idea that invites various applications＊

I thought it would be great to try it with ring lace sablé＊

➡︎ Here is the shop page for ring lace sablés＊＊

<12>

Filling a pill case with beads and ribbons and tying it like a gift box is also super cute♡

(This seems like a classic idea!)

<13>

This seems perfect for children’s gifts♩ A playful small gift set with crayons and coloring books♡

Attach a tag to toy sunglasses.

They look adorable just lined up.

Simple but cute. I want to use this stylish card design as a reference♡

Packed with a sense of party culture♡

Foreign events are just so stylish, even when it comes to the children's section♡ I received plenty of inspiration from Valentine for kids♡

I would like to keep these ideas for enriching wedding hospitality and everyday life♩
