Help!!!

I desperately need ideas for a Valentine's party. Our school usually gives us 30 min. at the end of the day to pass out valentines and maybe a treat. However, this year, the kids are going to have a party. (Partly because the kids missed out on their Christmas party when the schools closed due to bad weather.) So, we need craft and game ideas.

The BIG problem I have is that I need ideas for fifth graders. The only ideas I've come up with our decorating a white craft bag for the kids valentine's cards. And, of course, decorate your own cupcake. His teacher has a Valentine Bingo. So, if we don't come up with any games, we can use that.

I work with disabled individuals. It's my job to come up with things for them to do during the days from 9-5, and we are also having a valentines party. Most of my individuals have an IQ that puts them anywhere from 5th grade to 8th grade. Therefore I tend to try to find alot of games for them to do because they really enjoy that. It won't let me submit links on this post because I am brand new. If you search valentine party games there is alot of info out there. I will try to post some of my favorite links after this post and see if it will let me. The really good places to click on is anything from about.com or kaboose.
