To celebrate the upcoming holiday, and to get myself & the kiddos in the pink & red spirit, I made this fun Valentine snack mix!!!
sshhhh – I actually made it last year too, but I didn’t have a blog then so I had no one to share it with (until now!)!!
It’s such a simple concept.
All you have to do is grab anything cereal/snack related that is pink, red, or white (or hearts!) & throw it all together for a fun colorful snack mix that the kiddos will undoubtedly love (& you will too of course ;).
hearts + yummies + kiddos = a whole mess of happiness ;)
♥ the specifics for mine ♥
…you kind also find the quick 10 step tutorial for the little treat bag here!

Hi there, I was wondering what the measurement amounts of each? I have most the the supplies other than the TJ freeze dried strawberries. Thanks.
Hi Jodi!!! I didn’t really measure – just kinda threw it together. Maybe try a cup of the big stuff & the cereal. And the candies & sugary stuff maybe only 1/4 cup. Be creative & experiment with what works for your kiddos :)) Target also has some yummy FD strawberries too :) Hope that helps a little – enjoy! Thanks for stopping by & checking it out!! xx ♥ m
That is the greatest pink snack mix…I love the heart cereal. What kind is that? I’m not sure I have ever seen cereal in the shape of a heart!
Thanks Jocelyn & thanks for the feature :) The cereal is Quaker Whole Hearts {http://amzn.to/VG539L}…you can get it at any grocery store (I got mine at Target) :) xx ♥ m
