Level it up: Include an assortment of Valentine’s treats (homemade or store-bought) or tuck their card into a cute plush.

Give your siblings the gift of quality time with their family by sending them a fun board game or puzzle they can do together.

Level it up: If they live in a place where it’s chilly at this time of year, think about including something warm and cozy like matching scarves or fuzzy socks or slippers.
