| Most kids in our class include some type of treat with their cards. I bought cards and candy for a total of ~ $10. |

| Just nothing with nuts in it. |

OP - Thank you for all the suggestions!! I bought this last night ...

We have always given out pencils and it has been well received. Kids use it during the school year |

My kid used to give out individually wrapped ring pop. You can find it at Costco.
Also, you can hand out individually wrapped rice Krispy bars from Costco. |

Those are fine! There will be a range of things your kid will bring home, and will fit no problem. |

OP - Thanks for the feed back - Phew!
I just checked my orders and it say they should be delivered tomorrow. But i do see if you purchase them now it will arrive after Valentines day. |

You just go to the store - grocery store or someplace like that - and buy the valentines in boxes. No one hand makes them these days. There are too many. Then you have your kid write the name of each classmate on a valentine, so that there is one for each kid. I always got the valentines that came with a lollipop, and then the lollipop would attach to the card. Some years I went further and sent in a little gift bag with a few pieces of nut-free candy and maybe a Valentine pencil. But a card is usually enough, or maybe a card with a lollipop taped to it. |
