General Valentine's Day Activity Ideas

Implement these Valentine's Day ideas and watch love grow before your eyes!

A small gift for everyone
You can make the day really special for all those who work for you but get little else other than wages. Be it your newspaper boy, your plumber, your doctor, your housemaid, the postman or the pizza delivery man - you can present each of them with a small token gift like a white rose or a little chocolate box. The smile you get in return will make the gesture worthwhile.

Share a treat with your colleagues
If you are an office goer, it would be a perfect idea to show your love to colleagues on this day. Cook a nice dish and pack it to office. If cooking is not one of your strengths, you can buy a Valentine cake and unwrap it during lunch hour to share with your co-workers. It will help you celebrate the occasion with those whom you work with all year long. It would also strengthen your workplace relationships.

Make a Valentine's Day craft
It is also a great time to bring out the creative person hidden in yourself. A beautiful Valentine's Day craft, made all by yourself, can serve as a great home decoration item or even a nice gift for a loved one. You can use our Valentine's Day craft ideas to make some amazing crafts with materials easily available around the home.

Charity begins on Valentine's Day
Valentine's Day is the time for love. St. Valentine gave up his life for a common cause. Is it too difficult for you to spare a couple of hours for others? Think deeply and you cannot deny that 2nd February is actually a good time for some charitable activities. Take time off to visit a local hospital, a charitable center, nursing home or old age home and spend some time with ailed or old people who have none to care for them. Take along a bouquet of yellow roses along and gift a flower to each of those you visit. It will produce a good feeling and this would surely be mutual. But be sure to inform the hospital authorities beforehand and prearrange your visit to avoid any embarrassment later.
