While many associate Valentine’s Day with romance, for others, the holiday that has been celebrated for centuries is about more than roses and chocolates and declarations of undying love.
The romantic origins of the holiday have given way to family traditions of gift giving that extend beyond spouses. Valentine’s Day can be a family celebration, a time for parents and children alike to remind each other that they are loved.

“My mom still sends me Valentine’s Day cards,” said Alexandra Thickel, 24, of Oakwood. “It’s nice knowing she is thinking about me.”

Add sprinkles and you have a fancy-looking, easy-to-make Valentine’s surprise that the whole family will enjoy.
