Party Games For Children

Children's Birthday Party Games : How to Use Straws to Create Buildings or Bridges at a Kid's Party


Halloween Party Games for Children

While adults may be jumping on the Halloween bandwagon, first and foremost Halloween is a kid's holiday. Besides trick-or-treating and costumes, Halloween parties are one of the many activities that kids can look forward to each Halloween. If you are thinking of jumping in and hosting your own kid's party this year, one thing that you will need to think about is the games.

When planning kid's party games, keep in mind that many games will only have one winner. So be sure to play enough games that every child can be a winner, or consider providing second and third place prizes to help avoid hurt feelings. If you don't want to use candy for prizes, Halloween party favors and small toys also make great prize ideas.

Ghostly musical chairs

Almost everyone is familiar with the game of musical chairs, so you probably won't need a detailed expression of the rules. All you need is one chair less than the number of kids attending the party (so 9 chairs for 10 kids, for example). Cover the chairs with white sheets and paint some eyes and mouths on them to make them look like ghosts. Line the chairs up or arrange them in a circle. To play the game, play some music while the children walk around the chairs. When the music stops, the child left without a chair is out. Remove a chair, and keep playing until there is only one child left.

Dress the scarecrow

If you have some of dad's old clothing lying around the house, this is a fun game for kids. Divide the children into small teams, and give all teams some clothes for their scarecrow. Jeans or overalls, flannel shirts, boots, gloves, and a straw hat are typical, though you can use whatever you have on hand. One child in the team is the scarecrow, and has to stand still while the others of the team put the clothes on. The first team to complete a scarecrow is the winner.

Meet my mummy

For this one, you will again want to divide children into small teams and have one child volunteer to be the mummy (preferably a child who was not the scarecrow if you play both games). Give each team a roll of toilet paper, and have them wrap their mummy with it (you can also use rolls of streamers in Halloween colors if you would prefer). The first team done wins.

Pin the nose on the jack-o-lantern

Create a large pumpkin out of cardboard, or make one out of construction paper and pin it to a bulletin board. Paint or glue eyes and a mouth on the jack-o-lantern, leaving the area where the nose should be empty. Cut out several yellow triangles, writing the child's name on the front and placing a small piece of double-sided tape on the back. Blindfold children and have them attempt to pin the nose where it belongs. To make the game more difficult, spin the child in circles several times before having them pin the nose on.

Almost any child's party game can be converted to a Halloween game with a little creativity. Of course, leave plenty of time for snacks and the ever-popular costume contest.

Description

Quick, what's a beverage that has the letters "R" and "E" in the name? You've got 60 seconds. Wordplay for Kids is fast, fun and challenging. The spinner provides 2 letters that must appear in the word. A die roll selects the word category to guide the kids along. The category could be: "Food or Drink", "Object or Thing", "Living Creature", "Something in the House", "Boy's or Girl's Name" and "Any Word". Then it's off to the races! In each round, players write down a qualifying word on their game sheet. Everybody who forms a word moves forward, but longer words give you more spaces on the board and earn more points. Includes game board, sand timer, spinner, game pads, game pieces, die, pencils and instruction sheet.

Think you can come up with a girl's name containing the letters "Q" and "Y" in 60 seconds? Or a food or drink using "H" and "J"? There will truly be times when Wordplay for Kids will be anything but child's play. Designed for players 6 to 12 years, this combo of word building and racing to the finish line invites youngsters to come up with the longest word they can in order to gain the most spaces on the board. The spinner selects the two letters that must appear in the word, the die roll selects the category the word must fit. The enclosed rules are simple and, with one exception, easy to understand (you may want to adopt a house rule clarifying whether or not the word must begin with one of the two spun letters, or merely contain it). And it'll probably take only one fight between the player who composed "Patty" and the "Patricia-Elizabeth" wordsmith, before you'll want to outlaw the use of hyphens. Those preteens can be soooo devious. --Tony Mason

Colorful fun for your toddler! Crazy sounds make playtime fun! Plays 8 songs!Get silly with poppin', droppin' colored balls! Pump the plunger and drop the balls onto the spiral track. When they reach the bottom, look out the balls pop out the top! Giggles are guaranteed with wacky sound effects and 8 lively songs to help keep the fun rolling along. Requires 4 'D' batteries (not included). Ages 9 months and up.

The Playskool Explore and Grow Busy Ball Popper is a great put-and-take adventure for your infant or toddler. Designed for children ages nine months and up, the Busy Ball Popper will have your child popping the bright, colorful balls into a fun frenzy as they are air-popped out of the lower tube. The ball spinner/popper provides a fun sensorial experience, and includes fun, upbeat music to match the bright colorful characters. Explore and GrowBusy Ball Popper Ages: 9 months and up Requires: 4 "D" batteries (not included) Phillips screwdriver Adult assembly What We Think Fun factor: Durability: Ease of assembly: Educational factor: The Good: An exciting sensorial, put-and-take toy for your infant/toddler. The Challenging: Could be damaged if dropped or thrown repeatedly. In a Nutshell: A colorful toy that pops balls into the air or onto the ground for chasing. Watch the fan pop the colorful balls into the air! View larger. Colorful Balls that Spin and Pop in the Air The Busy Ball Popper is a one-piece toy that's made up of a removable ball trough, tube, and tray. When your child presses down on the big-eyed mushroom character on the Ball Popper, the balls move up the tube and pop out of the top, falling back into the tray to start the process all over again. The popper is made to withstand the rigors of your infant's play and can be easily cleaned with a damp towel. The plastic balls are large enough that you will not have to worry about them as choking hazards, but when your child is popping the balls, make sure to keep an eye out for balls as they can go off of the track occasionally. The popper also includes eight lively songs that start once you have pumped down the plunger to activate the ball-popping fan. Keep in mind that although the Busy Ball Popper is made out of a strong, durable plastic, it is fairly heavy and should be kept on a flat surface while being played to avoid any damage to your furniture. The toy also shuts itself off after a short period of time, but it is recommended to always turn it off manually for battery conservation. Great Sensorial, Put-and-take Work For Your Child This ball popper is a great toy for infants gaining gross motor skills, or for toddlers who are ready to chase the balls around the house and dance to the upbeat music. It is visually appealing with its bright, colorful balls and characters, and you never know where the balls may land, making it an exciting and new adventure each time. What's in the Box Ball popper base, plastic ball tray and lower trough, and five plastic balls. (Batteries are not included.)

  • Comes complete with five balls
