Valentine's Day True or False

Description
Can you separate the Valentine's Day related facts from the fiction?

Resources
Valentine Heart shaped pieces of paper or Index cards and pens (or pencils)

Preparation
None

What to Do

  1. Let everyone write four statements about themselves on the heart related to Valentine's Day. (They can be in any order, but three must be true, and one must be false.) People should be encouraged to make the false statement sound plausible to make it more fun. (The clever ones will use something true about someone else in the group in order to mislead the group about the author’s identity.)
  2. In this Valentine's Day variation of a classic icebreaker, the statements should relate to Valentine's Day or romance / love:
    • Write down four things you have received or given your sweetheart for Valentine's Day.
    • Write down your four favorite love songs.
    • Write down four things you find romantic.
    • What happened on your four most memorable dates?
  3. The Valentine's Day Hearts are then distributed randomly to the participants.
  4. As each person receives a heart, he or she will read the statements out to the group that are written on it. The group tries to decide which statement is false and the identity of the person who wrote it.
  5. Once the group guesses the correct person, the next person reads his or her heart until all the hearts are completed.
