Game ObjectivePlayed as a traditional game of Bingo but using items related to Valentine’s day.





Game Preparation

1. Make Bingo cards using Valentine’s related items in each square, and play Bingo. (Bingo cards are typically unique for each individual. There are also usually more items than the bingo grid. You might use some of the items below or make up your own) Place a heart in the center square as the free space.





2. Place slips of paper with the Valentine’s words in a hat or box decorated for Valentine’s Day.





Game Play1. Pass out the heart-shaped

papers.2. Give each child a supply of

Hershey’s kisses or candy hearts to use as markers on the board. Ask them not to eat them until the game is over.

3. Draw one slip of paper at a time from the hat or box. Read the saying out loud.





4. Ask participants to look for the saying on their paper. If they find it, they should place a candy heart over it. (Make sure each participant covers the free space.)





5. Play until someone gets five hearts in a row either horizontally, vertically or diagonally. The first person to do so must yell out “Be my Valentine” and wins. Check the grid to make sure the placement of the hearts agrees with those that have been called out.





6. Repeat the game a few times or keep on playing the first game until each child has covered five squares in a row.

7. Let everyone eat the candy after the game is over.
