For Valentine’s Day, Megan Lavin of our Megan’s Minute video series, offers clever ways to let kids with food allergies feel the love.
First up in this video is her “heart attack” door. Megan and her husband place a cut-out heart with a personalized compliment on the bedroom door of each of their four kids. Over several days, a new one is added. By the big day, each child has a collection of fluttering hearts.
The main event, however, for Megan – who is known for her Allergy Awesomeness recipe website – is her Valentine’s Love Meal.
