What about making a word search, the words are things you love about your kids/husband? (haven’t done this yet, don’t know how long it takes) Or a fill-in-the-blanks card with the same idea…things you love about each person? Could you “borrow” a poem from another poet for your husbands card? We are doing Robert Louis Stevenson and similar poets, so I’m no help with a particular suggestion. We’ve done homemade coupons in the past as well.
One year I cut up a bunch of red, pink and white paper hearts of various sizes and trailed them up the front steps, like foot prints. Probably quite a few heart shaped food ideas out there too (other than cookies), I’ve heard of heart shaped pizza, pancakes, toast/sandwhiches (use cookie cutter). Chocolate pudding would be fast. My kids are younger (7 and under) this year the older too have been working on a construction paper heart banner with Bible verses, we are having large soft pretzels with cheese (I’m adding veggies in on the side) and each child is getting a small toy animal (dd is a rabbit, who will wear a tag “Some bunny loves you”). i bought my husband a cd, and I have no idea what he made me, but there was sawing last night and I can’t go in the garage. Usually we are not so prepared for Valentines Day though. Hope you get some good ideas!!!
