I feel like with kid's allergies on the rise and parent's worried about too much candy, non-food valentine's are a way to go.

These little zoo animal valentine's are a cute alternative to the average candy hearts. I found these plastic animals at Target where there were also small tubs of sea animals and dinosaurs.
Print out my free printable here for the valentines, cut out, glue animals using hot glue or glue dots. Feel free to add some baker's twine before gluing.
