our second annual bunny brunch was THE cutest! I have been wanting to do a Peter Rabbit themed party for a while - I love the idea of decorating with fresh garden florals + vegetables. Our sunny dining room transformed into Mr. McGregor’s garden - even if spring hasn’t fully arrived yet!

Here are 16 of the cutest valentine's day books for children (in my opinion!) I had to stop myself at 16, but there are so many sweet books about love, hugs, kisses, hearts, and friendship. My kids love books and I love giving them books for special occasions - and I always include a book in their gift baskets!
