14 Valentine’s Day Party Games for Kids

Valentine’s Day isn’t just for flowers and chocolates—it’s a perfect opportunity to celebrate love, friendship, and fun with the little ones!

Whether you’re a parent planning a small gathering at home or a teacher organizing a party for your students, Valentine’s Day party games for kids are a brilliant way to engage everyone, create memorable moments, and sprinkle some extra excitement into the day.

Here’s everything you need to know about why Valentine’s Day party games are a fantastic idea and how they can make your celebration shine.

Fun Valentine’s Day Party Games for Kids

Need some inspiration for your classroom or at-home bash?

Here are six simple, engaging Valentine’s Day party games guaranteed to bring smiles to kids’ faces.

Heart Scavenger Hunt

Hide paper or foam hearts around the party area in different spots (some easy, some more challenging).

Create a list of clues or a map for kids to follow.

The child or team that collects the most hearts wins!

To make it extra special, write silly activities or challenges on the hearts for participants to complete.

Pin the Arrow on Cupid

A Valentine’s twist on the classic “Pin the Tail on the Donkey.”

Draw or print out a large Cupid figure and blindfold kids as they attempt to place the arrow as close to Cupid’s bow as possible.

Get ready to hear lots of giggles from the inevitable off-target placements!

Valentine’s Bingo

Create bingo cards with Valentine-themed images like hearts, chocolates, roses, and Cupids.

Use candy as markers, and award prizes to winners.

It’s simple, adorable, and very engaging—perfect for classroom parties or smaller playdates.

Candy Tower Challenge

Provide teams or individual kids with candy conversation hearts and challenge them to stack as many as they can without the tower toppling over.

Add a timer to increase the excitement.

This game is a test of patience, fine motor skills, and a whole lot of fun.

Love Letter Relay

Set up a relay race where kids must deliver “love letters” (envelopes or paper hearts) to designated mailboxes on the other side of the room.

Add obstacles along the way, like heart-shaped steppingstones or soft hurdles, to make it even more entertaining.

Guess the Candy Count

Fill a jar with Valentine-themed candies (think red and pink M&Ms) and have kids guess the number.

The winner gets to take the jar home—or at least a share of the goodies inside!
