(29) On this day lovers all around the world mark this occasion as a day for sending poems, cards, flowers or candy, etc. One of the oldest customs was the practice of writing women’s names on pieces of paper. The woman whose name was written by a man became his valentine, and he paid special attention to her. (30) The famous artist Kate Greenaway created cards which featured joyful children and beautiful gardens. Esther Howland was one of the first Valentine card manufacturers in the United States. Inspired by a British card, she began production in 1847. Her cards featured lace and paper flowers and leaves. (31) In the United States and Canada, children exchange valentines with their friends. In some schools, the children hold a classroom party and put all the valentines into a box they have decorated. At the end of the day, the teacher or one child distributes the cards.

Many children send their largest, fanciest cards to their parents and teachers. In Europe, people celebrate Valentine’s Day in many ways.
