Child Birthday Party Game Ideas

Need some fun child birthday party game ideas that will turn your child's party into an instant success? Here are some great games that your party guests will love.

The Secret Of The Mummy

Divide your party guests into two teams... Have each team choose a player to be "the Mummy."

Then give each team three rolls of toilet paper... Then start your party theme music and see which team is first to wrap up their Mummy from head to toe... To make things more fun, you might want to give them a two minute time limit... A great child birthday party game idea!

Whats That Smell

Blindfold each party guest one at a time, then place something in a paper bag for them to smell and see if they can guess what it is...

Try a peppermint, gum, toothpaste, cheese, a slice of pizza, cherry candy, grape candy, a banana, peanut butter or something milder like a slice of bread.

The Great Detective

A child birthday party game idea they're sure to love.

Have your birthday child go into another room and make a slight change in their appearance... Put on something different, one different sock, reposition their hat, or take off or add some jewelry... Then have them come back in the room with their party guests and see which guest is "the great detective" and can figure out what's different.

Quick Change

Artist

Give each child a bag that contains a big over-sized shirt, big pants, big socks and a big knit or floppy hat... Start your party theme music and say "ready - set - go!"

Each player starts putting the baggy clothes over their own clothing.,.. The first one to put on all the clothes from the bag is "the quick change artist."

You might want to have your party guests remove their shoes to make it easier to get the big socks on their feet.

Sneak Attack

Have your birthday child sit in a chair in the middle of the room and place a blindfold over their eyes... Place an object under the chair. It can be a stuffed animal, a toy, a small bag of candy or a wrapped gift.

Keep everyone quiet as your party guests try to sneak up (one at a time) and take the object under the chair... If your birthday child tags them, that player is out and the next player must try and take the object... Your birthday child can move their arms around, but don't let them use their feet.

Silly Dress-Up

A great child birthday party game idea for everyone.

Take lots of wild - colored shirts, pants, hats, socks, scarves, jackets and anything else you can think of and have your party guests see who can come up with the silliest, funniest, craziest costume.

Wild Animal Act

Write the name of an animal on a piece of

paper, fold the paper in half (so you can't see what's written) then put all the pieces of paper in a bowl... Have one party guest take a piece of paper out of the bowl and act out that animal... The first player to guess the animal correctly then takes a piece of paper from the bowl and acts out that animal... Keep playing until all your party guests have had a turn.

Wacky Balloon Race

Divide your party guests into two teams... Have one player from each team put a balloon between their knees... When you say "go," start your theme music and both players race to the finish line without dropping or popping their balloon.

If a balloon pops or the player drops their balloon, that player has to start all over again with a new balloon...

Every player on each team must race with the balloon. The team that finishes first wins.
