Valentines Day at School in the Mid 20th Century

from The Baby Boomer Radio, TV, Movies, Magazines, Music, Comics, Fads, Toys, Fun, and More Show!

Will you be our Valentine? On this episode of Galaxy Moonbeam Night Site, we look back to those Valentine's Days of our childhood. In particular we recall the activities in school, where the afternoon of Valentine's Day was a festive occasion in class. All the students would exchange cards and everyone had a paper bag taped to their desk to receive those cards. It was a festive, innocent time where children could have fun and enjoy an afternoon of treats and merriment. Adults too of course exchanged Valentines Day greetings and many of those traditions continue today. We also look at how things have changed, how today's politically charged environment makes people and kids more cautious about what is being said or written. But thinking back to earlier days fills us with good memories of a more innocent time. Join us, won't you? We have a Valentine just for you on Galaxy Moonbeam Night Site, on the Galaxy Nostalgia Network! Click here: http://bit.ly/GALAXY227
