Animals
\nThis is game is fun for small kids who are naturally intrigued by animals and can\u2019t cope with the intricacies of a more complicated game. Have a selection of animal masks or small wild animals\u2013 the same number as you have guests. Hold one up, one at a time. Ask all the children to imitate the animal. Continue, changing the animal just as soon as you feel the time is right! At the end of the game, give a mask or animal to each child. This could be a good \u2018going\u2019 home game if you\u2019re brave enough not to hand our party bags!<\/p>\n
Sleeping Lions
\nSurprisingly loved by a huge age range, this is a great \u2018calming down\u2019 game before handing your guests back to their parents. Ask the children to \u2018sleep\u2019 on the floor like a sleeping lion. The moment anybody moves they are \u2018out\u2019. In reality, you can ignore the odd twitch and your guests can stay \u2018sleeping\u2019 until somebody comes to collect them! You will look marvellously in control and the children will have calmed down into a contented and peaceful state.<\/p>\n

\nThis is more of a time filler than a game with a winner and is enjoyed by everybody because it doesn\u2019t matter how good or bad you are! It\u2019s a good way to start a kids party<\/a> whilst you are waiting for everybody to arrive. Before the party, insert a small, light-weight gift such as a Stretchy Smiley Men into the opening of a balloon before inflating it. Then, blow air into the balloon and repeat until you have a balloon for each guest. The children have to try keeping the balloon in the air for as long as they can just be using their head. Once given the go ahead they can enjoy bursting the balloon and retrieving their prize!<\/p>\n
\nBefore the party wrap a gift into a layer of paper. Now wrap it in another layer and repeat until you have the same number of layers as you do guests. (If you have more than about 15 guests it\u2019s more fun for your guests if you play the game with 2 parcels). Seat everyone in a circle and play some music for a short time. When the music stops, the person holding the parcel removes ONE layer of wrapping. (Have a bin bag ready so you can keep tidy from the start!) Repeat until the last layer of wrapping has been removed. The winner keeps the present. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
