WHY PLAY GAMES AT A BIRTHDAY PARTY?

You may be thinking that playing games at a birthday party is going to be too much work and just won't be worth it. I believe that games can bring a lot of fun to a party and even more importantly it will keep the children focused and BUSY! There is nothing worse than a house full of kids with nothing specific to do!!

A birthday party is a great time to do a cupcake walk. A cupcake walk is the same as a cakewalk, but the kids will win cupcakes instead of a full cake! Tip:  Have the cupcakes in individual plastic to-go containers so that the kids can take home their winnings!

CUPCAKE WALK

MUMMY WRAP

My daughter's favorite class party included a mummy wrapping game. It was hilarious to watch and all the kids had a blast. This is a cheap game if you buy some cheap toilet paper, LOL. There is no need to get name brand toilet paper for this party game.

Bucket Toss

– Line the buckets up in a vertical line spaced out evenly. You can number the buckets if you want. – Make a line using masking tape or washi tape. The kids will stand at this line to toss the balls. – Children will try to get a ball in each bucket.

BALLOON STOMP

This is a very inexpensive game because you can get a bag of balloons at Dollar Tree! – Blow up balloons before the party but don't make them too big. The balloons are harder to pop if they aren't overly full. – When it is game time release the balloons onto the floor. – Kids will try to pop the balloons with their feet with the balloons on the floor.
