Mailbox Valentine Fun and FREE Printables!

Spoiler Alert!  If you are a grandparent or relative of mine and are reading this, STOP!  NO PEEKING!  This may becoming to mailbox near you sometime soon. 🙂

You may recall the Dollar Store Diva’s super clever Valentines by Mail ideas.  I’ve always loved the idea that you can mail just about anything as long as it has a stamp and the right mailing address.

Well, this year I decided that two can play at this game.  I’m guessing that kids aren’t the only ones who love to receive clever Valentines in the mail.  I’m pretty sure that Grandparents and Aunts and Uncles and Dollar Store Divas would get a kick out of finding unique treasures in their mailbox on Valentine’s Day as well.

So I took a run to the Dollar Store (where else?!) and perused the shelves for Valentines by Mail inspiration.

The boys also had fun taking markers and adding their own little Valentine messages all over the Puzzle Map.

I’m going to slap a couple addresses on these and head to the post office to send them off to my Valentines far away.

Easy. Fun.  That’s how we roll around here.
