Kids party game tips
1. Make a list
Before you get too carried away, perhaps ask the birthday boy or girl what party games they would like to play so you at least have a starting point.
Perhaps games they've enjoyed playing at their friends' parties.
2. Adapt games to your party theme
You can purchase pre-prepared party games or try some of our suggestions below, perhaps adapting them to work in with your theme.
For example 'Duck, Duck, Goose' can be changed to 'Princess, Princess, Frog' or 'Spiderman, Spiderman, Green Goblin'.
With the use of some computer or artistic skills, markers and poster board, Pin the Tail on the Donkey can be turned into Pin the Crown on the Princess or Pin the Wheel on Thomas The Tank Engine etc.
3. Decide where to play the party games
Next, you need to consider your party space and whether the games will be played inside or outside (weather permitting).
Also have a few extra games planned in case there is a change in the weather or if you sense that a game is not going well.
4. Don't forget the prizes!
Make sure you are prepared with all the game equipment and prizes ready to go.
Every child likes to be a winner, so play games that allow this to happen such as pass the parcel where each child gets a small prize when the music stops.
