Valentine’s Day is one of our favorite holidays to celebrate with kids. There’s nothing like seeing the joy and celebration of love through our children’s eyes. From their sweet little handprint crafts to their giggles over passing out cards to their friends, it’s hard to not get excited about celebrating a day all about love.

That’s why we like to keep it simple as possible, especially when it comes to the treats. We’ve crafted this simple, yet delicious, Cupid Crunch snack mix to make sure you (and your family’s)
