2023 Valentine’s Day Gift Guide

2023 Valentine's Day Gift Guide

Brief History of Valentine’s Day:

According to History.com, the origins of Valentine’s Day are shrouded in mystery but it is influenced by both Christian and ancient Roman traditions. There are numerous legends as to whom and what St. Valentine actually did as the Catholic Church at least three different saints named Valentine or Valentinus, all of whom were martyred.

Lupercalia is a fertility festival dedicated to Faunus, the Roman god of agriculture, as well as Romulus and Remus. This festival is celebrated on February 15th. At the end of the 5th century, Lupercalia was outlawed and February 14th was declared Valentine’s Day by Pope Gelasius. Another fun fact about Valentine’s Day is that in France and England, it was thought that February 14th was the start of the mating season for birds which added to much of the lore and ideas of love we associate with Valentine’s Day today.

Valentine’s greetings tradition goes back as far as the 1400s and today Valentine’s Day is celebrated in multiple countries by many.

Bumpas Dolls:

LUCKY

Bumpas Dolls are plush weighted dolls that are designed to hug you. Their weighted arms even form a heart which I think is adorable. They are seriously so cute and the four Bumpas characters all have their own backstory. I received Lucky whose backstory is the following:

“When Lucky smiles, the sun breaks through every dark cloud that may float into your day. All is well when you are within Lucky’s embrace. She shines brightest when she is held against your heart, offering comfort and total acceptance; whether you are good or have been a little naughty. Sometimes we are disappointed when things don’t turn out as we would like. But Lucky wants you to understand life holds many surprises, so smile and be nice to yourself. Know how truly special and loved you are… just the way you are. “Always talk nice to yourself and be kind to others,” Lucky encourages her special friend.”

Bumpas Dolls make a great gift for those of all ages!

You can purchase one on their website for $45. Bumpas dolls also are available at FAOSchwartz.comLearningExpress.com Amazon.com,  Macys.comWalmart.com, and many independent toy stores.
