Depending on how you feel about Valentine’s Day, you may consider this heart-shaped holiday in and of itself a big ol’ punchline. But even if you’re not a huge fan, you probably lean into it for your little ones since Valentine’s Day can be a blast for kids. It allows them to show their creativity (see: that drawing of a person composed entirely of tiny hearts hanging on your fridge) and learn about different ways to demonstrate affection. And one of the most fun ways to demonstrate affection? Sharing humor.

That’s right; go ahead and tell those corny but oh-so-cute Valentine’s Day jokes. Do something goofy. Let your kiddo see you wear your Taylor-Swift-and-Travis-Kelce-stanning heart on your sleeve. Help them pop some adorably cheesy zingers into their class V-Day cards.
