Game Preparation
1. Stick a straight pin carefully
through the rubber tip so
that the arrow or dart is
“loaded.”
2. Create a corny love poem
such as: “Roses are
red, violets are blue; if you
kiss me, you’ll come down
with the flu.”

3. Write each word of the poem
on a slip of paper and place it
in a balloon.
4. Inflate the balloons and tape
them to a wall. Have a
different color or balloon
designation for each team.
Red, White, Pink, pastels are
nice.

5. Mark a tape line on the floor
at least 10 feet from the
targets and line up each team
single file behind the tape.
6. Have a responsible assistant
handle the “ammo.” To avoid
dangerous crossfire, ammo
should only be collected once
all teams have shot all their
arrows.

Game Play
1. Each person gets one shot at
the balloons, then moves to
the back of the line.
2. When a balloon pops and
after all shooting
ceases, retrieve the word-clue
from any balloon that popped
and give it to the team of that
color (It is possible that
another team may pop the
balloon for you if their aim is
off)
3. The first team to figure out
the poem wins!

Verses related to love or
relationships.
