How Do you play Valentine’s Day Charades?
The rules for charades are simple. You will want to divide into two equal teams. Once the teams are set you decide who will go first. The first team will draw a card and look at it. Then have a scorekeeper will set a timer (usually 1 minute) or flip over the timer and the team begins acting.
They will try to get their team to guess the word before the time runs out. If they do they will get a point. If they don’t the other team has 1 guess, the first word that is said aloud to try and steal. If they get it right then they get the point. The first team to the set number of points wins!
Helpful Tools We Love When Downloading Printables
- Printer– I love my HP+ printer that uses Instant Ink. I love it because we can use as much color ink as you want for one low cost starting at $.99/ month for ink. Try it out for free here!
- Cardstock- I always recommend printing on cardstock. This makes it way more durable so you don’t have to worry about printing it time and time again.
- Laminator / Laminating Sheets- Again, for added durability, grab a laminator and laminating sheets so that you can use this again and again!
- Scissors (I seriously love these ones)
- Dry Erase Pens- Use dry erase pens so that you can wipe your laminated printable clean over and over again for endless use!

Charade Hint Clues
Charade clues are a great way to give your team a little bit of help since the actor cannot talk. An actor can use these clues, but be careful because they can quickly eat up the time you need for acting.
- Number of words- If there are multiple words in your Valentine’s Day Charade you are acting hold up that number of fingers then point to the finger of the word you will begin to act out first. For example for the phrase “queen of hearts” you will hold up three fingers and if you are going to act out hearts then you will point to the third finger.
- Rhyming word- if you are going to give a rhyming word tap your ear for “sounds like”
- Song- Pretend to sing or wave your hand like you are leading music.
- Movie- Place one hand in a circle over your eye and then crank your other hand around in a circle like an old-school movie camera.
- Book- Pretend you are holding a pretend book with your palms closed and then open it.
- Show- If it is a TV show draw your hands in a square to show that it is a TV show.
- Quotes / well-known saying- make air quotes to show that it is either a quote or a well-known saying.
