Just because they can’t have a box of chocolates doesn’t mean you can’t celebrate your baby’s first Valentine’s Day!
Valentine’s Day is usually focused on romance, and that’s great. We’re all for romance and reconnecting with your partner. In fact we encourage it (just check out those romantic Airbnbs!). Of course, that doesn’t mean we’re skipping our baby’s first Valentine’s Day! It’s still a milestone and there’s nothing we as parents love more than celebrating our little one’s firsts. Even though they won’t remember their first Day of Love, we can’t resist these adorable baby V-Day goodies!
We’ve put together the perfect list of baby-ready gifts for February 14th. Things to build, friends to snuggle, and adorable little love-themed outfits to wear in pics (that you’ll be sharing to your Tinybeans album, of course!). No matter how little (or big, actually), our babes have the biggest pieces of our hearts, so we’re making sure they know it. Baby’s first Valentine’s Day gifts are right here!
Wooden Heart Blocks
Bella Luna Toys
This is even better than a box of chocolates (for babies, anyway). Each sweet block has been stained with water-based, non-toxic dyes, and sanded down to smooth rounded corners, so they're even safe enough for them to teeth on! They'll be able to play with this adorable puzzle for years.
What's better than this cute koala to celebrate your little one's first Valentine's Day? Knowing that he's handmade by knitting artisans in Lima and in remote rural villages in Peru. They work closely with organizations dedicated to empowering women through income-generating projects. Artisans enjoy a safe work environment and earn a living wage with respect for their cultural traditions. That's one special koala!
Peekaboo is a classic, so why not add a little love to it? Which each page including something to push, pull, or turn, this interactive book is sure to become a favorite.
You probably already know our deep love of Slumberkins, the collection of darling plush 'Kins', board books, and affirmation cards designed to help little ones get to know their emotions. So when we saw the special edition Valentine's Day Blush Otter Kin, we fell in love.
Music, sounds, bright colors, and a cozy feel? This unicorn has it all. There's also a chameleon and a caterpillar if the unicorn isn't quite their speed!
Hand-eye coordination skills don't usually go hand-in-hand with Valentine's Day, but this puzzle makes sure it does! It has soft pieces that are ideal for little hands, too.
This unisex romper from Pehr has a precious little subtle heart print, is made with certified organic cotton, and even feature leg snaps to make diaper changes a breeze! And don't worry; if hearts aren't your babe's style, there are lots of great prints to pick from.
Not only is the heart shape perfect for the Day of Love, but the multi-textured surface of this teether is ideal for sore little gums. They're available in multiple colors, too.
Award-winning Babiators sunglasses for babies, toddlers, and kids offer 100% UV protection and flexible, durable frames. These heart shaped frames come in two sizes to fit kids ages 6 months to 5 years+!

Just like Weeble toys, this Wobbly Stacking Tower wobbles around but won't fall! It's excellent for teaching hand-eye coordination and is made with lime wood and non-toxic water-based stain.
The water-safe LED light in both the cute little astronaut and matching rocket ship activates when placed in water or when touched and stay lit up for 15 seconds at a time.

The best baby feeding supplies for mitigating messes
When it comes to finding the best baby feeding supplies, there’s absolutely no shortage of options. Whether it’s your first little one or your newest addition, feeding gear is always evolving. Of course, that’s a good thing, but it can leave you feeling a little overwhelmed with choices. But you have us, so you can relax and let us handle the hard part.
Most of us would agree that the best options have a few key features. We’re looking for suction-bottom plates and bowls (babies are mighty flingy as far as bowls and plates go), high-quality baby-safe materials, soft-on-the-gums utensils, and weighted sippy cups (because of that flingy thing again). A lot of feeding supplies are created with food-grade silicone, since it’s soft, but we also found stainless steel and bamboo options for those of us looking to skip the plastic. There are even options that also keep your comfort in mind. From bibs to bowls to snack containers, these are some seriously clever products for feeding your little one. Check out our list of the best baby feeding supplies below.
Best Utensils: Baby Spoons & Forks
Avanchy Bamboo Baby Spoons
Avanchy on Amazon
Shorter handles and wider scoops make these perfect for babies just starting out all the way to the toddler stage. Multiple colors and set options are available, too.
Made in Denmark, these aesthetic toddler and baby utensils are as pretty as they are functional. They're so simple that they're easy for little ones to hang onto while they learn their way around solid foods. They come in lots of soft colors, too.
These chunky little baby spoons and forks are ideal for little grips. The shape helps them hang onto their utensils and the kiddo-friendly colors (there are lots of them!) help to keep them engaged.
Munchkin baby spoons are a parent favorite: gentle on baby's gums, ergonomically shaped, and long enough to reach the bottom of those food jars. What's not to love?
Created by moms who just get it, these curved spoons are great for littles learning to feed themselves. They help develop motor skills without exhausting their wrist, shoulders, or elbows with overly complicated movements. Available in 2 sets of different colors.
The best baby feeding supplies let you say goodbye to flying baby bowls. The suction cup bottom keeps these securely in place, while the quick-release tab makes it easy for you to clean up when mealtime is over.
Suction bottoms are a theme here, of course, but the WeeSprout plates offer a divided design and matching lids for on-the-go carrying, leftovers, and meal prep. Lots of color combos are available, too.
Trying to avoid plastic? This bamboo and stainless steel bowl set from Avanchy is a great way to go. The bundle includes both bowls and a lid for easy transport or leftovers. Several colors are available, too.
You probably already know ezpz, and this beauty doesn't just include a suction bottom, but it also has a built-in placemat to majorly mitigate spills. Available in 4 colors.
Warm up baby food by steaming over a saucepan or steamer with this bowl. And don't worry—the bowl itself doesn't get hot as it steams, either, so it won't get overheated.
These snack cups are soft and collapsible, with an interchangeable snack cup or straw sip lid. Plus the secure snack lid keeps goodies contained and is perfect for little hands.
As far as baby snack containers go, this isn't just one that keeps the Cheerios from flying out. With a straw, storage lid, and snack dispenser lid, you can use it for everything from Goldfish to soup to smoothies and beyond. Lots of cute color combinations are available, too.
Oh, mushie and their soft colors that we just can't get enough of. The double handles are super helpful for little ones, too. Tons of color options with this one.
The rounded sides of the plate make it easy for scooping and containing food, and this set also includes a stable cup for learning to drink, and easy-to-hold utensils. It comes in 4 colors.
The best baby feeding supplies are multi-functional, and Busy Baby agrees. This bundle includes Busy Baby's best sellers: Mat (original size) with 4 Tethers, Mini Mat, Teether & Training Spoon, Bungee Bib & Utensils, Bottle Bungee, and Toy Bungee. Not only are they excellent feeding tools, but the bungees keep toys, utensils, and more from falling on the floor.
The Lalo First Bites set is one of the most popular out there. It includes utensils, bib, 4oz cup, suction plate and bowl and is available in 5 colors.
Designed for babies 4+ months, the MICHEF set comes complete with 2 baby food feeders with 3 different sized replacement silicone sacs, baby spoons, and a bowl with masher.
Cover them alllllll the way up with these best selling long sleeve bibs. There's a good chance they'll still find a way to drip something somewhere, but this set mitigates the possibility. Lots of colors are available.
Looking for serious bib coverage? Look no further. This one is designed to cover your babe and their highchair, plus its machine washable. Multiple color options, too.
Fabric bibs are classic for a reason: these waterproof fabric bibs are soft and strong and include a crumb-catcher pocket. Machine wash them over and over. Plus, they come in lots of adorable colors and prints.
We're really into this apron style bib with little arm holes that are totally tug-proof. The sweet colors and prints are a major selling point here, too.
Learning is is the name of the game when it comes to baby water cups, and this one is designed by pediatric experts. The weighted base prevents tip-overs and your little one can see inside the cup to know what's in it and how much is left (which is a big deal when they're learning to drink for themselves). 5 colors available.
Made of Tritan that's clear as glass yet strong as stainless steel, the Evorie Sippy Cup is an award-winning cup with a straw that allows babies to drink from an angle while minimizing extra air that can lead to tummy upsets. Multiple colors and designs are available.
The weighted straw idea is brilliant, honestly. It lets your little one drink from any angle or position and keeps spills and leaks to a minimum. There are 7 colors available.

Traveling with teens is a whole new ballgame. When the kids were little, you picked where you wanted to go, ensured there were activities the family would enjoy, and off you went.

All the resorts listed below have accommodation options that are great for families traveling with teens and are ideal for multi-generational and group travel as well.

There are plenty of things your kids wish they could ban. Broccoli for instance. Or bedtimes. But we’re guessing books wouldn’t make their list. Promote the power of “yes” by pulling these banned children’s books off the shelf and into your evening reading routine. You won’t be disappointed, and neither will the kids! Looking for other books for kids? Check out our collection of classic children’s books, our favorite bedtime stories, and books that feature diverse protagonists.
When you read this book title as a directive, rather than as an innocent and undeniably catchy rhyme, it’s easy to see why a Toronto father’s rights advocate challenged the wildly popular Dr. Seuss book. But pulling it from library shelves because it “encouraged children to use violence against their fathers” was only the tip of the iceberg for his 2014 challenge. He also thought the library should fork over some cash to cover “damages resulting from the book.”
Ages 3-7
If you haven’t read this story about humble, radiant Wilbur (a.k.a. Some Pig) then you’re in for a treat. Although a group of concerned parents disagreed in 2006. They tried to have this book banned from classrooms because they found the book’s talking animals to be disrespectful to God.
Ages: 8-12
Let’s be honest. This book is every parent’s fantasy. After all who doesn’t want a song-activated magic pot that cooks them dinner? The late Tomie dePaola’s classic tale of the Grandma Witch has been banned in several U.S. school libraries for promoting witchcraft.
Ages: 4-8.
It seems a certain 1987 version of this book would have fared better in Europe than it did in the States, where it was banned in both Michigan and New York in the mid-1990s. Although the story behind finding the now-infamous “nude bather,” that caused the version to be pulled from the shelves, has since been lost, we’re guessing it had something to do with one reader’s relentless search for Waldo.
Ages: 5-9
When it comes to dystopian novels, tweens, and teens just can't get enough of them. And Lois Lowry's Newbery Award-winning classic continues the trend. But parents in Blue Springs, Missouri grew concerned over "twisted" and "lewd" content in the book and tried to have it removed from an eighth-grade reading list in 2003. The good news is, the compelling story is continued on in three more books in the series.
Ages: 12 & up
Readers the world over love Harriet the Spy, because not only does she tells it like it is, she also rides a dumbwaiter, and who wouldn’t want to try that? Over the years, the book has been banned in school libraries because parents are concerned it teaches children to “lie, spy, talk back and curse.”
Ages: 8-12
Kids have loved the quirky drawings and odd poetry of Shel Silverstein for generations. But in 1986, the West Allis Milwaukee School District banned this particular poetry collection because of “drug reference, suicide, death and a disrespect for truth and authority.” Shortly after, a school district in Pennsylvania did the same.
Ages: 6-8
Magical wardrobes, talking lions and evil queens: Narnia’s got dibs on some of the best fantasy elements ever written. But the first book in this popular series was first banned in 1990 because adults were concerned by its “graphic violence, mysticism and gore.” Then in 2005, a group focused on the separation of church and state tried banning the book from Florida’s public schools after then-Governor, Jeb Bush, promoted it in a statewide reading contest.
Ages: 8 & up
The 10th most challenged and banned book of 2017, I am Jazz is an autobiographical picture book chronicling the early years of transgender reality TV star, Jazz Jennings. It first appeared on the banned list when a group of Wisconsin parents objected to its reading at school. They were concerned about sex education, language and offensive viewpoints.
Ages: 4-8
You’ve read this one to your sidekick so many times, you’ve got it memorized. But when this classic hit the scene in 1963, it caused quite a stir. Banned in many southern states for depicting child abuse (the no-go supper for Max), it’s also been challenged for being “too dark” and showing supernatural elements. If you’re looking for more books to put on your nighttime reading list try one of these all-time faves.
Ages: 4-8
The surprisingly dark tales spun by the Brothers Grimm have been challenged many times. But we bet the specifics behind this particularly gruesome classic will surprise you. Was it because of images of cannibalism? Or perhaps because it promoted unhealthy eating habits or tooth decay? Nope. In 1992 two witches challenged this book claiming it painted witches in a bad light.
Ages: 5 & up
This Newbery Award winner’s been challenged a few times for undermining religious beliefs, and in 1985 it was challenged at a Florida elementary school for promoting witchcraft, crystal balls and demons.
Ages: 10-14
First came Roy. Then came Silo. Then came a baby and made their family complete. Based on the true story of two male penguins at New York’s Central Park Zoo, this ALA Notable Children’s Book made its way onto the banned book list for featuring a same-sex relationship.
Ages: 2-5
More a case of mistaken identity than concern over content, Bill Martin’s classic children’s book was banned by the Texas State Board of Education in 2010. It turns out that the children’s author didn’t also pen Ethical Marxism: The Categorical Imperative of Liberation. Oops!
Ages: 2-5
If you think your house is filled with drama, you haven’t been to middle school lately. Get a refresher with this tween graphic novel that follows theater geek Callie as she strives to build a Broadway-worthy set and figure out … well, boys. But the real drama for this book came when it hit the banned children's book list in one school district and two school libraries in Texas because it features LGBTQ characters.
Ages: 10-14
We dare you not to shed a tear over this touching story of a selfless tree who loves a boy. But it was a cynical interpretation of the tree’s selfless giving as “sexist content” that landed this Shel Silverstein classic on a Colorado library’s banned book list in 1988.
Ages: 1-8
J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series has been translated into 68 different languages, distributed in over 200 different territories worldwide, and has sold over 450 million copies at last count. And the number of challenges and bans on this series, usually for depicting witchcraft and wizardry and promoting anti-family themes, is also impressive. By 2000, it had been challenged about 650 different times.
Ages: 8 & up
Another Newbery Award-winner, this story of friendship and loss is a definite tearjerker. But it wasn’t the tragic death of a friend that led the New Brighton Area School District in Pennsylvania to remove it from their 5th-grade classrooms. They were concerned about the disrespect, foul language and confusion that could be created when kids read about Terabithia, the fantasy world dreamed up by BFFs Jesse and Leslie.
Ages: 9 & up
Roald Dahl is no stranger to the banned book list. James and the Giant Peach is on there. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is too. But it’s his classic tale of a boy-turned-mouse and his cigar-smoking grandmother who fight against witches that continues to find its way onto the list again and again and again. It was challenged at least ten times in the late 1980s and early 1990s for things like “being too sophisticated” and “not teaching moral values.”
Ages: 8-12
Families coming in all shapes, sizes and colors is the theme of this popular Todd Parr book. But concerns over depicting families that have two moms or two dads kept this bold and colorful paperback off the shelves in the Erie School District in Illinois in 2012.
Ages: 5-6
One of Avi’s lesser-known works, it’s the story of 13-year-old Jonathan, who wants to fight beside his brother and cousin, against the British, during the Revolutionary War. This ALA-notable book was banned at the Bay District school library in 2008 over parent concerns around the use of profanity.
Ages: 9 & up
If your kid has read the book, watched the movie and bought the T-shirt, then you’re not alone. But you might be surprised to find that this popular Dave Pilkey series was at one time the most banned book in the country. In the early books, concerns were raised over content that wasn’t suited for the age group and encouraging disobedience. The release of the 12th book caused new concerns over references to Harold being gay.
Ages: 7-10
The powerfully poignant diary of Anne Frank, who spent two years hiding from the Nazis, with her family in the cramped “Secret Annexe” of an office building, often shows up on the banned book list. Although concern over sexually explicit material is the reason usually cited, once in 1983 the Alabama State Textbook Committee tried to ban it because they thought the diary was “a real downer.”
Ages: 10-13
This story of a donkey who wishes himself into a rock set off alarm bells with the Illinois Police Association. In 1977 they challenged the book because the police are depicted as pigs in the story. In the aftermath, it was banned in many parts of the U.S.
Ages: 3-7
If you cringe every time you read Junie B. Jones to your kids and she “runned speedy quick” or “did a shrug” or commits some other crime against grammar, you’re not alone. Most of the challenges to this series are about Junie’s speech patterns and the fact it might encourage young readers to follow suit.
Ages: 6-9
This book has been banned by a North Carolina school district claiming that the book taught children to be transgender. Jacob's New Dress is actually about acceptance and anti-bullying when Jacob wants to wear a dress to school.
Ages: 4-7
Maus has been banned in a Tennessee county for profanity, nudity, violence, and suicide, although it presents the argument of how to honestly portray the Holocaust without those things.

'New Kid' was written by author Jerry Craft about his own life experiences, then a Texas school district banned it for "Critical Race Theory and Marxism." When Jordan Banks starts at a new private school, he was one of the only students of color, and he discovers this new struggle of fitting in when there is very little diversity. This banned children's book is the winner of the Newbery Medal, the Coretta Scott King Author Award, and the Kirkus Prize for Young Reader's Literature.
Ages: 8-12
The story of 13-year-old Lakshmi, a Nepalese girl who is sold into sexual slavery is a powerful, but not easy, read. Banned in multiple states for depictions of violent sexual content, this book is not for the faint of heart. Still, it's an important topic about a very real subject that affects humans all over the world. Ages: 14+
Christopher Paul Curtis' iconic historical fiction book tells the tragic true story of the 1963 church bombing in Birmingham, AL, through the eyes of 10-year-old Kenny, on a trip to see his grandma.

These are the beauty gift ideas that’ll make you feel like a holiday gift guru
The holidays are around the corner, and this is going to be the gift guide you save to send to your partner and family for sure. Although you can definitely use these ideas for your own mom, sister, BFF, etc., we put this one together with you in mind. So we ask: What’s better than indulging in some beauty products that you wouldn’t normally buy for yourself?
We’re all about the home spa experience, and these goodies range from intensive treatments to apply-and-go makeup to help you get out the door in a snap. We’ve rounded up the top beauty gifts of 2023 that will leave you feeling relaxed, recharged, and ready to tackle the day.
Avon Haiku Serenity Gift Set
Avon
There's no better time for a little zen than the holidays. Avon's cult-fave Haiku scent features a fresh, clean, green + floral blend that's best-selling for a reason. This set has the Eau de Parfum, Hair & Body Mist, and Haiku Intense Travel Spray.
Yes. It is that good. It's a little bit of a splurge, but it's super rich, so it lasts a long time, and the scent is unbelievable. There's a reason Bum Bum Cream is such a viral hit.
This limited-edition set from the collab between Smashbox x Christian Cowan gives you everything you need to create a stunning full-glam look that's perfect for the holidays (and beyond).
Woody, warm, earthy...Vetiver meets lavender, cedarwood, and green tea notes. Wear it alone or as a layer. You can't go wrong (well, you can't go wrong with pretty much anything from KORRES.).
Designed to work with the Shorts & Suite Mineral Mist Pods, the Mist Wand rapidly delivers the finest dispersion of active mineral ingredients. It's perfect for the winter when skin is parched, and ideal for travel, too.
Get a non-invasive facelift, depuff, and contour your face with the ELEANOR. It uses radio frequency and LED light therapy along with the Glow Rose Conductive Gel (sold separately) to maximize effectiveness right from your home.
These reusable eye masks help you get the most out of your eye cream or serum. Just apply, top it off with the eye masks, and leave on for 10 minutes. They also help protect during makeup application. Did we mention they're reusable? Just rinse, dry, and store them in the included compact when you're done.
The DIORIVIERA Set includes limited-edition 5 Couleurs Couture eyeshadow palette with shades that match the 5 miniature Dior nail polishes, all inspired by the French Riviera.
Give them the gift of transforming their lashes and brows with this collection. Condition, strengthen, and soften lashes while defending against brittleness and breakage. Brows are shaped and revitalized. And the Volumizing Primer + Mineral Tint makes those peepers pop. This is a great routine to start for the new year, too.
A $279 value, this pretty chest comes packed with all of Charlotte's favorites—a mini Pillow Talk Beauty Light Wand, Rock 'n' Kohl Eyeliner, Push Up Lashes! Mascara, and more. Everything Charlotte is most famous for is included in her Lucky Chest.
The number of hours we spend shaving over the course of a year adds up (and it's kinda depressing, to be honest). The Air3 IPL handset offers a quick 12 minute treatment, skin-cooling technology for a nearly-painless experience, and results in only 3 weeks.
A 12-in-1 collection of all the things you could possibly need in one convenient box. It's literally a full face routine of name-brand luxe beauty brands, including brushes and an additional compartment for extras, in a take-anywhere-box. You can also purchase additional pods to swap out and refill. It's the only thing you'll ever need and we're obsessed.
Step into your new skin with this one-two punch of a shea butter-infused body wash that's PH-balanced for all skin types plus an effective exfoliator that unclogs pores and leaves your skin totally ready for the next step in your routine (and helps it absorb the additional products you use daily).
VIOLETTE FR's iconic Petal Bouche lip color duo in (clockwise from top) Amour Fou (Violette's signature red—the one that looks good on everyone), her newest deep wine hue, Cerie Désir, or Cœur Infidèle (an intense magnetic pink), . *Tip: make sure to hydrate your lips before applying this matte, long-wearing color.
This is no ordinary face mask. When you combine the ampoule and solution, use the included brush to paint onto your skin, wait 15-20 minutes, and you'll see major transformation after the first use.
This plant-powered + clean makeup set features three lifhtweight cream multi-use makeup sticks to create a youthful, natural glow with skin-hydrating benefits.
A bauble trio that can work as stocking-stuffers, tree ornaments, or just wrapped under the tree. Includes 3 best-selling body washes: Pink Pepper, Black Pepper, and Rhubarb and Rose.
For the makeup-lover who likes to add some drama, these stunning multi-tonal gel shadows are the perfect option. Pictured in 'Snooze', there are multiple colors to pick from.
6 travel-friendly a.m. and p.m. essentials to cleanse, exfoliate, hydrate, brighten, and replenish your complexion, resetting your skin to it's happiest state. We're talking in as little as 30 days.
You don't have to know everything about skincare to build the perfect set. Just enter the zip code of your gift recepiant and Pour Moi Beauty pulls up everything needed based on the climate of that area. Genius.
Who knows a smoky eye better than Victoria Beckham? Each minimalist compact sports 4 expertly-curated, high impact shades that take the guesswork out of application. Available in 5 color pallets (Signature is pictured here).
