What I Like About You

What I Like About You

What I Like About You is an esteem-boosting game which can be played in the family or classroom. Great for Valentine's Day.

Age: any

You will need:

A stack of paper and pencil for each player.

Instructions:

Give each person a stack of paper and a pencil. Call out the name of one of your family members (or one child in the class) and ask everyone to write that name on the top of the paper. Now write down something you love (or like) about that person. Fold in half, and throw the papers into a hat. Continue until you have written something about everyone. Now pass the hat around and take turns pulling out a paper and reading what is on it out aloud.
