I love simple party games. In a world that rushes kids to grow into
teenagers by age 7, I find it incredibly refreshing to watch young kids
truly enjoy themselves doing something many would consider old-fashioned,
when really they are just being kids! And that's the way it should be. Here
are some party game ideas.

1. a Treasure Hunt (not just for pirate parties either!); a "treasure" can
be anything related to the theme

2. Pass the ___ to Music; for my daughter's recent Woodland Fairy party, we
used a pinecone from my in-laws' backyard. Hey, whatever works!

3. Relay with a ___ on a Spoon; kids love this one...namely the 5+ crowd.
For my son's Lego party we used just that...a lego piece.

4. Guess the # of ___ in a Jar; this is perfect for the first 10 minutes
when you are waiting for guests to trickle in. Fill a small mason jar with
jelly beans that match the party's theme colors. Target usually has a good
selection of colors/flavors in bulk and of course, your local candy store
should too.

5. Balloon Stomp; can be done to music and is recommended for 5 and older.

6. Pin the __ on the ___; I love this one!There is something about being
blind-folded and spun that really makes things lively!
