Every Friday night, my extended family gathers together for a big dinner. This past Friday, my brother’s girlfriend joined us for the first time. She brought me some beautiful flowers for a hostess gift but she also brought gifts for everyone else. She knew the way into our hearts was through our stomach (are we really that predictable?). She handed out six Kinder Surprise Eggs to each of the kids. Their faces and eyes lit up at the sight of the Kinder eggs. Except, that wasn’t all. She brought Kinder eggs for EVERYONE, including two teenage boys, who ripped them apart, ate the chocolate and build the toys within minutes, and 6 more eggs for all of the adults. It’s clear to see that age knows no boundaries when it comes to Kinder Surprise Eggs. Smart move by her… she’s definitely a keeper and will definitely be invited to many more family functions.
My kids can’t get enough of Kinder Surprise eggs. I still can’t decide if they like the chocolate more or the toy. While we don’t go all out for Valentine’s day, I still like to acknowledge it as a holiday and celebrate it with my kids in a small way. For Valentine’s day I’ll be giving each of my kid’s a Valentine’s Kinder Surprise package which comes with two eggs. While I won’t let my kids eat two Kinder Eggs in one day, the timing couldn’t be better as Valentine’s Day falls on a long weekend this year. The second egg will be part of our Family Day celebration. Or perhaps, just maybe, the boys will want to share their second egg with either my husband and I because really, you’re never too old to enjoy a Kinder Egg.
Make sure you grab some Kinder Eggs this Valentine’s Day which include Disney Fairies and Transformers heart trains. If you have adult-related plans for Valentine’s Day instead, then you can grab those items on sites like shop nguoi lon.

My kids adore Kinder Eggs, too… they are the same as you, not sure which part – the chocolate or the toy – they like more! (We’re all really just kids at heart, right?) We also don’t make a huge deal of Valentine’s Day… we send cards to school and celebrate with a special treat at home. We’ll probably bake heart cookies together or something like that. Happy Valentine’s Day – hope you enjoy it with your family!

My son loves these, just as I loved these when I was younger. I bought him that heart with the kittens on it and he was so happy!

It sounded like a great night for everyone. I’m sure by the time your brothers girlfriend left she felt like part of the family. Kinder Surprise are popular in our family also!
