Attach one of Helzberg's "I Am Loved" pins (available free at Helzberg locations, Helzberg.com) to a card or package. The pins have been a Helzberg Kansas City tradition since they were first announced in the Kansas City Star in a 1967 ad campaign.
Commemorate your love with a love lock on the Old Red Bridge in Minor Park (KCParks.org/attraction/old-red-bridge-love-locks/). "The placing of love locks is a custom whereby couples affix a padlock to a bridge, fence, gate or similar fixture, so pronouncing their unbreakable and everlasting love. The Old Red Bridge is adjacent to the new bridge located on Red Bridge Road between Holmes and Blue River Road in south Kansas City."
Treat your sweetheart to made-from-scratch personalized chocolates from Laura Little's Candies (LauraLittleCandy.com). They offer free personalization on fudge hearts for your valentine!
Cookies from McLain's Bakery in Waldo (McLainsKC.com) have been enjoyed by generations of Kansas Citians since 1945! Buy a dozen to share with the family.
Eat heart-shaped pizza from Papa Murphy's (PapaMurphys.com), where they sell take 'n bake pizza. Or dine in or order carry-out at Minsky's (Minskys.com), where they sell the special shapes for holidays.

Or, make your own KC valentine tradition and share it with us on the KC Parent Facebook page at Facebook.com/KansasCityParent.
