Kid-friendly

Valentine's Day

February 14 can be a day for friendly notes. A gift is not required.

The next date is February 14, 2027. Dates follow Mountain Time, America/Denver. Stories below are from the archive.

How to take part

Free and safe. No fee, no student email, and no trip taken alone.

  • Write a friendly note to a classmate, a neighbor, or a family adult.
  • Include the whole class if you bring notes to school.
  • Skip a gift. Kind words are enough.

For classrooms

A short prompt for a teacher to use with children. This page is for adults.

Make a free note for every student, or for none, so no one is left out. Do not require candy, money, or a valentine for a crush.

More stories a teacher can read aloud are in the Kids section.
