I don’t know about you but I hate the pre-Valentine’s Day build up. You can’t even seem to buy shower gel without tacky hearts and “cute” bears on it. Okay, so I might be exaggerating a little but you can’t deny that the lead up to this gaudy occasion has gone on for far too long.
It is a good excuse, however, to write silly cards of appreciation to your friends, blackmail your boyfriend legitimately for the next year because he neglected to get you anything, and marvel at the filthy cards that grace the shelves of shops that shall not be named for fear of legal action.
Back in the day, I used to get a little box of heart chocolates and a little mystery note from someone with handwriting not dissimilar to my mother’s. In return I bought her a card with my pocket money. Cute, you might think, but it had on the front a hamster in a leather jacket, riding a motorbike and showing off a “MOM” heart tattoo.
Here are the best (or worst) top ten children’s Valentine’s cards. Enjoy!
