Game 1{Steal My Heart} Set a bowl of candy hearts on a flat surface within easy reach of the players & hand each person a pair of chopsticks. Set a timer for about 1-2 minutes. At "GO" players start removing hearts from the bowl using only their chopsticks, placing the candies in front of them. When time is up, the player with the most hearts wins!
Game 2{Memory} Try to find matching pairs with the conversation hearts. Then turn them over and take turns trying to find the match. When you find a match you can either eat it right away or wait and count them all up!
Game 3{Calendar Drop}Take a February calendar and place it on the floor. "Tape" a line for everyone to stand behind. Everyone playing needs to pick a different color of the heart candy. Taking turns for about 5 minutes, players need to throw their colored candy onto the calendar. What ever day it lands on it your score for that turn. When time is up whoever has the highest score wins. (You could laminate the calendar for year to year use and it could also be used as a placemat)
Game 4{Tell A Story}Give each player a certain amount of candy hearts. Give some time to make up a story. When everyone is ready, then share the stories.
Game 5{Tower of Hearts}Each player needs to have a handful of conversation hearts. The object is to stack the tallest tower of candy hearts in 30 seconds. When the time is up count how many hearts you have in your tower. The one with the most wins.
Have FUN!
Those are all great ideas. Thanks for sharing.
