Games to boost your bedroom bond

Stuck in a sex rut? Not for much longer. We’ve got some guaranteed ways to spark up your regular routine — from strip snap to naughty treasure hunt.

Game 1: TRUTH OR DARE

WHAT YOU'LL NEED: The truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth… oh, and a bottle.
HOW TO PLAY:
Spin a bottle to see who goes first. Then ask each other sex-based questions; keep it general though — do you really want to know if his ex was better in bed?
For example: Have you ever indulged in a threesome? What's the most adventurous thing you've done in bed? Ever had sex with someone you've known for less than an hour?
But remember, if you dont want to answer truthfully, you’ll have to fulfil the dare…
HOT DARES WE RECOMMEND:

• Clean your partner’s house from top to bottom … completely naked.
• Own up to your hottest fantasy or help your partner fulfil theirs.
• Perform your own erotic strip tease.

Game 2: TREASURE HUNT

WHAT YOU'LL NEED: A stopwatch or egg timer and some serious scavenging skills.
HOW TO PLAY:
The aim of this game is to find items around the house that provide sexual pleasure… then put them to work. To start, set the timer for two minutes and begin the hunt.
Think creatively — you could grab a spatula for some light spanking, a loofah to give each other an all-over body scrub, a feather duster to run over each other’s skin, a couple of his ties to bind him to the bed, or an electric massager that could double as a vibrator.
Once time's up, whoever's amassed the most goodies gets first pick of what they'd like to have used on them. Choose one each until everything’s divided up, then get cracking.
WHY YOU'LL (HEART) IT:
It's the home-based alternative to visiting a sex shop, minus the embarrassment. You’ll never be able to look at an egg-beater in quite the same way again…

Game 3: STRIP SNAP

WHAT YOU'LL NEED: A pack of cards and one fully-clothed man.

HOW TO PLAY:
Traditional snap, but with a twist. For each hand of snap you lose, you also lose an item of clothing. Not only that, your partner gets to choose which piece it will be — and takes it off for you. First one naked loses…or should that be wins?.
WHY YOU'LL (HEART) IT:
It starts off slowly but finishes with a serious bang.

Game 4: THE NAKED CHEF

WHAT YOU'LL NEED: A fully stocked pantry and your chef's hat.

HOW TO PLAY:
Lie your partner down, then use their body as the base for an original recipe. For example, you may like to create a banana split … on his abs. Swirl on whipped cream and cherries, then lick it off. Once you've enjoyed the fruits of your labour, it's his turn.
WHY YOU'LL (HEART) IT:
Sex and chocolate? Life doesn't really get any better.

Game 6: PICK & MIX

WHAT YOU'LL NEED: A bowl, two pens and two stacks of paper — one colour for him, a different one for you.
HOW TO PLAY:
Grab your pile of paper and write down things you've always wanted him to do in bed, then ask him to do the same. Include a range of ideas, from "Caress my breasts" to "Talk dirty" to "Go down on me".
Fold them up into squares and drop them into a bowl before mixing well. Now, pick one each and follow the instructions. Keep going until the bowl is completely empty.
IDEAS FOR YOU BOWL OF LURVE:

• Jump in for a double shower
• me a hand massage, then suck each finger in turn
• Use my vibrator on me
• Blow, suck and lick my neck
• Masturbate for me
