Throwing the Smile
|
| In this game players are forbidden to smile until they are chosen.
Players sit in a circle, making sure they can see everyone else. One
player who is It starts the game by smiling widely, while all the other
players are somber. He then uses his hand to wipe the smile off
his face and throw it to another player who has to catch the smile with
his hand and put it on.
This player can then wipe off the smile to throw to someone
else--though he will probably choose to mug wildly at everyone for a few
minutes before relinquishing his happy role. Meanwhile, all other
players must sit stone-faced. One smirk and they're out. |

Cupid's Tree Scavenger Hunt
|
| Tiny clues lead to big fun in this variation of an old
game. Set up a Valentine's tree centerpiece on the dining room table;
a small bare branch held upright in a jar of marbles or stones works
well.
Write clues on small pieces of heart shaped paper for items that the
kids must find or make of paper and hang on the tree. Then tie the clues
onto the branches of the tree.
When the kids come back with the last item, have small gifts or
valentine cards waiting under the tree. |

number of pink and red hearts.
On each pink heart, write a

Cupid's Arrow
|
| One student
(Cupid) is blindfolded. Cupid's arrow is taped to his back. Another
student sneaks up and steals Cupid's arrow, then returns to his seat.
The blindfold is removed and
Cupid must identify the thief. He may ask up to five yes/no questions
("Was the thief a boy?" "Does he have glasses?" etc.) before making his
guess.
If Cupid correctly identifies
the thief, he may retain his position (up to three turns). If he fails
to identify the thief, the thief becomes the next Cupid. |
