Description
Are you looking for a no-prep Valentine activity that’s fun and includes multiple learning opportunities? This Valentine’s Day Escape Room is just what you’re looking for! It’s the DIGITAL version of our popular Valentine’s Day Escape Room, about which one sweet teacher said, Wow, this is a super creative and fun resource! … a perfect way to get kids thinking without knowing it! ❤️
Your students will embark on an exciting race to help Cupid save Valentine’s Day. They will learn about the history of the holiday and practice reading comprehension. Engaging activities requiring critical thinking and puzzle-solving will have your kids learning while they work. However, the breakout room is so much fun that it won’t feel like work at all!
The story starts when students find themselves trapped in Cupid’s Valentine Factory, because Cupid has lost the combination to the safe in which he keeps his magical arrows. Students will read and answer questions, decode ciphers, solve puzzles, and unlock four locks in order to break out.
❤️ WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THIS DIGITAL VALENTINE’S DAY ACTIVITY? ❤️
- An escape the room that is digital, on a Google Site.
- Slides with movable parts
- A map with I love you written in 10 languages that the students will match to the country of its origin.
- Reading comprehension activities that include a newspaper article about the escape and a TRIVIA graffiti wall with fun facts about Valentine’s Day.

❤️HOW DO I USE THIS ESCAPE ROOM IN MY CLASSROOM? ❤️
All you have to do is give your students the link or assign it in Google Classroom. Everything is ready to go on the Google site*! You can use it as a classroom Valentine activity, as homework, for remote teaching, or you can leave it as a substitute assignment.
*IMPORTANT: Please make sure your district does not block the following websites: Google Sites, jigsawplanet.com, YouTube, and proprofs.com. These websites might be incorporated into the game. If you are unsure, check with your IT department.
❤️ WHAT MAKES THIS SPECIAL? ❤️
The storyline is interactive and immersive. YOUR students are directly involved in the story. It will provide you with a perfect opportunity to observe your students problem-solving. They can work as a team if you’d like.
❤️ HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE? ❤️
Completing the entire escape room will probably take about 40-50 minutes, depending on how quickly the class is able to complete the activities. Students will not have to leave the room. This is NOT a scavenger hunt.
