Valentine Party Games
Cupid Bingo is fun and can be played with conversation hearts for bingo markers. You can easily make your own Cupid Bingo cards by setting up a grid with C-U-P-I-D at the top and copying numbers from regular bingo cards. Print them out on cardstock. Or use Bingomaker, software that lets you custom make your own bingo game.
A Valentine Matching Game is a fun party activity and a way to get kids partnered up. Use boxed paper valentines leftover from a previous year and cut them in half, at different angles in puzzle-piece shapes. Mix them up and give one to each party guest. Ask the kids to find their matching valentine holder.
Famous Loving Couples: Romeo and Juliet, Napoleon and Josephine, Fred and Wilma Flintstone, Danny and Sandy from Grease – think of as many famous couples as you can, divide them and mix them up in two printed columns. See how many kids can match up the couples.

- Heart-shaped sugar cookies frosted with pink-tinted icing are easy and everybody’s favorite.
- Anything chocolate! What better holiday to feed the inner chocoholic in everyone! Your young party guests will love chocolate covered strawberries. If your party is for older kids and teens, set up a chocolate fondue and have strawberries, kiwi, bananas and apple slices and other fruits for dipping.
- Heart shaped cake: Heart-shaped cake pans are readily available. If you don’t have one, you can easily make a heart shaped cake with a square cake pan and a round cake pan. Simple make one of each in a simple yellow cake recipe, remove from pans and allow to cool. Turn the square cake and turn it so it’s a diamond shape in front of you. Cut the round cake in half and place each half against the top sides of the diamond. Frost with a thick layer of pink icing and you’ve got a perfect valentine cake.
- Have some fun with Fruit by the Foot by creating cupcakes that look like roses. Find out how at Family Fun.
