"Good Morning America" asked Cavallari to share how she spends Valentine's Day with her kids, with the hope that it will inspire families to celebrate in a way that best suits their style. Cavallari is the founder and CEO of Uncommon James as well as host of the podcast "Let's Be Honest with Kristin Cavallari."

Overall, Cavallari said she keeps things pretty low-key.

"I'll give my kids a bag and some small presents and candy, and decorate the kitchen, but nothing major," she said over email, explaining that she got her daughter a horse necklace and a T-shirt this year ("she's obsessed with horses") and shoes and candy for her boys.

Over the last few years, Cavallari said they've also chosen to dress up and go out to dinner.

"When we go to dinner, my boys love wearing their suits and my daughter will wear a pink or red dress. It's very cute that they love to get dressed up!" she said.

She added that her daughter also loves T-shirts and sweatshirts with heart prints, but Cavallari "[doesn't] always buy something new."

When it comes to ideas for gifts or treats kids can bring to their friends, Cavallari suggested Valentine's Day stickers or candy gummy lips, especially if a school doesn't allow homemade food.
