Traditional Valentine's Day gifts pale in comparison to the gift of a hearty (not to mention heartfelt) laugh.

Well, that's a gift that keeps on giving. Not only are these kid-friendly jokes and Valentine’s Day riddles worth re-telling, but they make the perfect addition to any Valentine's Day card or gift given by or to your little one.
