Valentine’s Day Games
Why is Valentine's Day celebrated?
Valentine was a pastor who served under the reign of Emperor
Claudius II during 3rd century. February 14 was devoted to the Roman
goddess Juno. Romans worshipped Juno as the idol of marriage and
women. Emperor Claudius II believed that bachelor men perform better
as soldiers than family men. As a result he banned marriage in his
empire. Valentine felt this act as injustice. He opposed Claudius
and carried out marriages for young lovers in secret. When
Valentine's activities were found, Claudius sentenced him to death.
So as a regard for the Saint, Valentine’s Day is celebrated.
What is the impact of games on Valentine's Day?
Valentine's Day Games not only entertain and amuse your guests
but also act as an introduction among young people. But, while
preparing the games for the Valentine's Day party, keep in mind the
age of your guests. If you have planned for a children’s party, then
the game will be unusual from Valentine's Day games.
Do you know some of the common Valentine's Day
games?
Know Your Love
Distribute small heart-shaped papers and ask each guest to write
their favorite movie, food, book and how they spend their vacation.
No one should mention his or her name in the paper. Then, drop
papers in a bowl and ask everyone to take out in random. The person,
who guesses the most correct answers, wins. This shows how you know
your loved ones.
Funny Rings and Jar
For this game, take a bowl of milk or dark liquid and put the
ring in it. Now ask a couple to take off their rings and throw it in
the bowl which contains many other rings. Then they have to put
their hands in to the bowl to take the ring of their partner without
seeing it. They are allowed to take their out hands only once. The
couple, who discover the right ring in the shortest time, is the
winner of this game. You can fill a glass jar with candy and ask
your guest to guess the number of candies inside. But before
starting the game, make sure you have counted the number of candies
inside. Whoever guesses right, or closest to the answer wins the
game.
Lip Sticking and Matching
Draw a big face on paper and have a pair of lips cut separately.
Participants in this Valentine's Day will be blindfolded and they
have to stick the lips in the right place. Write a pair of some
words associated with Valentine’s Day and put them in a hat. Each
piece of paper will have one word and its pair will be written on a
separate sheet of paper. Your friend has to pick a word from the
bowl and he has to search for the person who has the liaison word.
The pair, who finds the first two words, wins this game.
Couple Quiz
Take out a person from each couple and take them to a separate
room. Ask questions about the person's spouse. Note the responses
given by the person, and once all responses are recorded get some
other people in the room and put the same questions to them. Now
compare the answers given by each and see how they understood each
other.
Party games are the best Valentine’s Day Games. But, make sure
you have all the features like money, space, idea of the game etc
before arranging a game.
