I spent several years as “Head Room Mom” during our daughter’s elementary school years. Signing up every year felt like such a great idea until it was time to actually plan the party. After the first insanely elaborate (and expensive) party, I realized the easier the game was, the more participation I received. It also meant more fun for the kiddos. Here are some of the games that ended up being Valentine Party favorites no matter the age… just tweak them to work for the grade you’re partying with!
Minute to Win It: One-Handed Bracelet / Teach Mama
What do you need?
Pipe cleaner
Fruit Loops
How to play:
Give each child a pipe cleaner and Fruit Loops.
Set a timer for 60 seconds.
Children have one minute to get as many Fruit Loops on the pipe cleaner as they can.
For older children, they have to tie it into a bracelet… still with one hand!
