Bored of the same old kids party games? Here are some GREAT new ones

"You have some Great Kids Party Games.
We all had such fun... "

PARTY GAMES are often an essential part of the party. Not just for the little ones but also for older kids (and adults as well!).

Party games help draw in the quiet or shy kids and are a great way of either calming down a boisterous crowd or for getting a quiet group going.

If you haven't got time to prepare the games or you haven't the equipment that you want, think about investing in some ready made indoor kids party games. Party Box (UK site) have a great selection as do Prezzy Box (UK site) who have ready made giant outdoor games such as snakes and ladders and Tumble Towers. These are a great investment as they can be used year after year.

Basic Kids Party Games Advice

Every children's party runs more smoothly with some organised games.

• Get them in the mood
  The arrival at a party before the party games begin, can be an awkward time for the shy ones or the smaller kids, so have some party music going and one simple party game on the go such as guessing where the treasure is on a map.
• The under 3's
  The younger age groups generally love musical games. They lack concentration so keep the games short. Avoid blindfold games as some children are frightened of them.
• Everyone's a winner!
  Let everyone win something. It keeps them all happy and instills confidence.
• Have lots of games up your sleeve
  Be prepared even if you don't necessarily play them all. You will find some games are so popular that the children will play them over and over again. Don't be disappointed if they don't want to play 'YOUR' favourite game.
• Have a mixture of games
  Think indoor/outdoor and quiet/active games. Plan what is appropriate for the setting/weather/age groups.
• Give them a break
  Don't feel that the children have to be continually playing party games in order to be having fun. A bit of 'free' play is often just as enjoyable. Also don't force kids to play if they don't want to but try and involve them in other ways such as handing out prizes, picking team captains and so on.
• Be flexible
  The rain may suddenly bucket down, the kids are tired, you are busy in the kitchen......never mind! Change your plans.
• Be adaptable
  Indoor kids party games can be often be adapted for outside and vica versa.
• Be ready
  Whatever games you decide to have, make sure you have plenty of the equipment you need as pencils get lost, paper mislaid and balloons burst.

• Keep it simple
  Often the simplest kids party games are the most well received.
