My daughter is 12 and in the 7th grade. In elementary school there was a party - and all of the kids exchanged valentines. Now that she's in middle school - does she just do nothing? Do kids bring candy or cards for just their friends? What gets exchanged? I asked her last night if she wanted to get some candy (you know the kind in little boxes with a place to write To/From - and she said she just wasn't sure. What's considered the cool thing to do these days?

Well I'm in high school now, but I was in middle school 2 years ago. Just buy a bag of candy(any kind) and she can hand it out to her friends, teachers, everyone. If you don't write to/from, then the candy can go to everyone without leaving anyone, from best friends to people you just met. This is what I did and the kids liked that I gave candy out to everyone, not just my friends. I'm planning on doing that this year, too. It's simple, inexpensive and fun.

We don't do anything, Iam in the 8 th grade, we just give out candy to our friends or teacher and that it.
Oh! we buy valentine's grams ,their just a paper with heart on the outside, and you write on the inside, like a message, and then the teachers put the gram inside with a bag and inside there is candy. the more you get the more candy you will have.

im actually in the same position im 13 and in the 7th grade and i am kind of troubled about it too. Most people dont hand out valentines to everyone..and there are no parties for exchanging valentines. i would go to a website such as fredflare.com and look at there valentines. they are retro and they are really cute..i think she would like them.

nothing...just bring maybe a few candies for your close friends, but don't go out handing valentine cards

They dont do anything.... Valentine has now become for boyfriends and girlfriends... Even though she is only 12, she is with the older kids now.... It's a little sad isin't it....
