This game is an old favourite. It is similar to Pass the Parcel only this time it's a HOT potato being passed around. Everyone needs to take the potato when it reaches them but the challenge is not be caught with it when the music stops. |

| | MUSICAL CHAIRS |  | This is another children's favourite. Set up chairs in 2 rows back to back. Put out one less chair than there are children. Start playing music, and have the kids walk around the chairs (not touching the chairs though!) until the music stops. When the music stops, the kids must each sit on a chair. The child without a chair is "out". Then remove another chair. If there is ever a tie, the child with more bum on the chair wins. |
| | MUSICAL STATUES |  | This game does not need much explanation, or props. A favourite with the kids. |
| | SENSE SATIONAL | | Test their powers of smell! Fill paper bags with a variety of items that have an aroma, such as coffee beans, salami, toothpaste, orange peels, chocolate, and so on. Be sure the smells are familiar to the age group. Then pass the bags around and let the kids smell them without looking inside! Give prizes to whoever guessed them all correctly (or whoever guessed the most correctly). |
| | GUESS HOW MANY | | This fun game is suitable for all ages and all will add an extra something to all occasions |
| | PASS THE BALLOON | | This lively game is lots of fun to watch and even more fun to play. It is played in teams and involves passing a balloon from one person to the next without using any hands. The first team to pass the balloon all the way to the end is the winner.
|
| | PIN THE TAIL ON THE DONKEY | | Your donkey is missing its tail and you need help to pin it back. To make it more fun, the kids are blindfolded so the results are hilarious with the donkey ending up with a tail on its nose, head or stomach. This is a popular game ideal for younger children form ages 4-8 leaving all players and spectators giggling. |
