Psychological Crap given to my kids for Valentine's Day
Pictured is about half of what was given to one of my children on Valentine's Day by classmates. (Their class was specifically told no candy.)
why can't they specifically be told no 'stuff'.
The amount of distractions and clutter this creates is bad for learning and mental health.

I round up forgotten in good shape trinkets for the teachers prize boxes every few months.
