Looking for fun Valentine's Day games? Do you want them to be fun, but also clean? Look no further - below are listed 6 of the best Valentine's Day games ever! These games are perfect for any setting: for a large group Valentine's Day party, for teenagers or college students, married couples and even for families and kids. Enjoy!
1) Do You Know Your Partner: Everyone playing will be paired up with their Valentine (or any partner). In preparation, write down 10-15 questions that you will ask to the whole group. Examples of some questions might be: what is your partner's favorite food, movie, song, color, etc. Or, where did we go on our first date, what day did we get engaged, where were we for our first kiss, etc. Think of any type of question. Then, ask each question to the whole group, and each partner will answer (write down on a paper without partner seeing) what they think their partner will answer. Everyone will reveal what they wrote down, and the pair that gets the most right wins (and has to kiss)!
2) Romantic Drawing Charades: In preparation, give each player 3 slips of paper. On each paper, players will write down one Valentines related word or scenario. Examples might be: kiss, hug, candlelight dinner, heart throbbing, lips, bouquet of roses, box of chocolates, etc. Place all the slips in a bowl, and divide the group into two teams. One person from each team will come up and draw one slip out together. They then will, at 'go,' have to draw what was on the slip for their team on a piece of paper. No talking allowed by the drawer. The first team to guess correctly what it is receives a point. Send another drawer up and this repeats until one team scores 15 points and wins!
3) V.A.L.E.N.T.I.N.E Scavenger Hunt: This scavenger hunt requires a car, digital camera (or cell phone camera), and a paper/pen for each team. Divide everyone playing into teams of three people each. The goal is to go out into the city and find one Valentine related item for each letter of the word V.A.L.E.N.T.I.N.E., and take a picture of it. For example, you might find a Vase for V, or the word 'Love' for L, etc. Teams will take a picture of the item found for each corresponding letter. The first team back with a correct picture for each letter is the winner!
4) Back to Back Guessing: In preparation, gather about 30-40 random objects from around the house. Examples might be: a paper clip, spatula, bowl, cell phone, book, picture frame, pen, flag, etc. Everyone will be divided up into pairs or couples. One couple will go to the center where they will be two chairs, back to back, and the couples will sit facing away from each other. One partner will be given a random object and their goal is to describe it to their partner as quickly as possible to score points. But, only one word can be said at a time, no saying the word (or any part) of the actual word/object, and no forming sentences in your description. So, if the object was a picture frame - the person describing might say: photo, borders, look, sides, memories, etc. The partner is limited to only 3 guesses. If the partner guesses correctly in the first 5 guesses, they get 3 points. If the partner guesses in the next 5 guesses, it is worth 2 points, and if in the next 5 guesses it is worth 1 point, otherwise their turn is done. The next couple comes up and receives a new object. The first team to score 20 points wins.
5) 'I Love You' Game: Those playing will sit in a circle, and everyone will start by covering their teeth with their lips. The object of the game is to keep your teeth covered for the entire game! If at any point someone's teeth do show while talking or laughing, that person receives a strike. After the second strike, a player is eliminated from the game! Someone will start by turning to the person on their left and saying: "Hello, my name is _______, and I love you so much because you are _________." They will fill in the blanks with their name and with whatever they want for the second part of the sentence. The goal, of course, is to get your neighbor to laugh so that they will show their teeth, but while doing so, not laugh yourself! Then, the person who was asked the question will have to respond by saying: "Thanks ________, I love you too." They will fill in the blank with the person's name before them, and turn to the next person and also say: "Hello, my name ..." (repeat). It is important to note, however, that even those not participating in the question/answer part still must keep their teeth covered. Thus, a person receives a strike if their teeth show while talking or laughing, or if someone is laughing so hard that they don't respond to a question within 5 seconds. As the game continues, players will receive 2 strikes and be eliminated, and the person who keeps their teeth covered the longest is the winner!
6) Heart Attack: This is not so much a game as it is a very meaningful and fun activity. Identify someone special to say 'thank you' or 'I love you' to. Make many cards in the shape of a heart, and on those cards write kind things as to why you love or appreciate them. Then, take the cards and decorate their yard, front door, bedroom, etc.
