I have volunteered at my children's holiday party events every year for the past 6 years. Now that I have 3 in elementary school the party time has grew and I'm not sure how it is at your kids' school but what I have learned is that you have to get your activities in fast! They give you less than an hour to cram in the fun on top of all the treats parents sent in that need to be passed out. If you want to get an activity or game in it has to be quick and easy or before you know it times up and they are heading out the door to go home. Trust me, painting the inside of ornaments and decorating window art, and having a snack station sounds like a fun idea and it was but kids weren't able to finish because it just took too long. Below I have listed quick and easy activities for your next Valentine's party that will fill the time you have with fun without the rush!

1. BINGO

Everytime I have brought BINGO, even for the older kids, they always had a good time playing it!

2. CANDY, CANDY, HEART

Put a Valentine's twist on the traditional game of Duck, Duck, Goose

3. PARTY EMOJI GAME

This is a fun little game to guess the valentine's themed words using nothing but emojis.

4. HEADS UP HERSHEY KISS

Put a Valentine spin on the classic heads up 7 up game! 5-7 students stand in front of the class. The rest of the students put their heads on their desks. The kids in front then move about and puts a Hershey kiss on a student's desk. Once all the kisses are gone the seven say “heads up Hershey kiss!” The students who have the kisses then get a chance to guess which of the kids gave it to them. If they guessed right, they get to change places and be one of the students in the front of the class.

5. PARTY PACK

With this pack you get trivia, word scramble, and pencils all in one!

6. FOUR CORNERS

Pick one person to be it. Label each corner of the room a Valentine's theme. The person that is it has to stand in the middle of the room with their eyes closed while everyone else picks a corner. When the person is done counting, they pick a corner and everyone in that corner has to sit down. Continue until there is only one person left standing!
