But if you’re looking for even more ideas, here are 5 additional Valentine’s Day party games that are sure to be a hit:

  1. “Love Letter Scavenger Hunt”: Hide small pieces of paper with love-themed words or phrases around the party space and have the kids search for them. The first one to find all the words and use them to create a love letter wins.
  2. “Heart Toss”: Set up a bucket or basket and have the kids take turns tossing small foam hearts into it. The one with the most successful throws wins.
  3. “Cupid’s Arrow”: Cut out large paper hearts and write different points values on them. Set them up in a pyramid shape and have the kids take turns trying to knock them down with a cardboard tube “arrow.” The one with the highest score wins.
  4. “Musical Hearts”: Just like “Musical Chairs,” but with a Valentine’s Day twist. Set up a circle of hearts (made of paper or fabric) and have the kids walk around them while music plays. When the music stops, they have to sit on a heart. Remove one heart each round and the last one standing wins.
  5. “Heart Match”: Cut out several pairs of paper hearts with different patterns or colors. Mix them up and have the kids try to find the matching pairs. The one with the most matches wins.

With these fun and kid-friendly party games, your Valentine’s Day celebration is sure to be a hit with all the little ones!

Use LEGOs to Build Landmarks from Around the World

I love using LEGOs and other blocks in educational ways, because it’s a way to build on something that most kids already love and sneak in a bit of learning about another topic. Building is a great STEM lesson because it teaches creative thinking and problem solving, and it’s also just fun. 

123 Homeschool 4 Me brings blocks to your social studies or history lessons with a set of LEGO challenge cards involving landmarks of the world. The cards don’t call for any particular blocks, they just show a picture of the landmark and kids can use what they have to try to re-create the design. 

The cards included in the set are: 

  • Taj Mahal, India
  • Windmills, Holland
  • Brandenburg Gate, Germany
  • Eiffel Tower, France
  • Notre Dame, France
  • Arc de Triumphe, France
  • Sagrada Familia, Spain
  • Leaning Tower of Pisa, Italy
  • Colosseum, Italy
  • Stonehenge, United Kingdom
  • Big Ben, Great Britain
  • Blue Domed Church, Greece
  • Acropolis, Greece
  • St Basil’s Cathedral, Russia
  • Pyramids of Giza, Egypt
  • The Blue Mosque, Istanbul
  • Statue of Liberty, United States of America
  • Golden Gate Bridge, USA
  • Capital Hill, USA
  • Mount Rushmore, United States
  • Great Wall of China, China
  • Sydney Opera House, Australia
  • Machu Picchu, Peru
  • Chichen Itza, Mexico

You can use these challenge cards in lots of different ways. Of course you can just tuck them in the block are and see if kids want to play with them. You can also add them to a unit where you are learning about that country or a particular time period where the landmark makes sense to include. Have kids do a little research on the landmark, build their own version and present their findings. 

I would love to try some of these challenges, and I’ll bet your kids will, too. You can grab the free printable landmarks LEGO challenge cards from 123 Homeschool 4 Me. I’d love to hear how you use them!
