Valentine's Day - history and fun

How did sending Valentine cards become so popular around the world? What is
the historical background of this "holiday?" What crafts can my family make,
besides purchasing cards, to save money?

All of these questions can be answered for you in a highly entertaining way -
on your computer. On the site: History.com, there are several videos to choose
from about romance; How chocolate is made (Hershey Corp.); Valentines
around the world, and lots more. Okay, so there are some commercials,
but it is easy to click on the "skip" choice to ignore them. You will learn lots
of interesting stuff about Valentines for the whole family.

Another interesting site is:
http://www.kaboose.com/features/valentines/valentines-cab.html
This site offers lots of ideas for crafts and cards for all ages.
Have a great Valentine's Day and remember to tell someone you love him/her!
