When throwing a party it is always nice to hear guest compliment your party. A relay race is always fun at a family party. Make a Birthday (or any reason for a gift) into a fun time for all. All parties can be fun, even adult parties, they can be as fun as children's parties, of course the games and activities will be different. If we didn't have so much funny at parties what would be the purpose of having them.



Some of the activities are relatively tame while others can be quite steamy, depending on what level you play. Don't forget to incorporate the five main party activities of every party which have been developed over the history of parties.

Here are some activities that you can do at your child's birthday party. Something very similar to pin the tale on the donkey is pin the wart on the witch's nose, all you need to do is get a photocopy of a witch or you an draw the witch, get green play dough and roll it up in little balls, blind fold the child and have them stick it on the witch. A good selection of child party games will keep the group interested and the party running smoothly. When planning a child birthday party, just a little bit of organization will go a long way. Paper airplane contest, have each child make a paper airplane. Make a different pilot for each child and either put a number or name on the pilot to identify the child. Learn how to give each classic child party game idea its own unique twist to fit your party theme.

The important part of a child's birthday party is the time you spend playing the games, it creates laughter and fun. If well planned, they can make great memories for the birthday child and guests alike, if not, they can be a minefield of problems.

More of the popular party games are the games that are played at night with glow sticks, using these glow sticks have turned into a nighttime sport game. Party games for an outdoor summer party can be very rowdy and active.

Water can add an element to your party which can make it exciting, since you can use the water for many different games, like water balloon toss. In this game you fill up red, white and blue balloons with water and divide the guests into teams of two. Whatever team is able to keep the balloons from popping will become the winners of the game.

If you don't like the idea of water balloons you can set up a contest between some of the kids to see who can pop as many balloons with their bums as possible within say the frame of a couple of minutes.

You don't want to leave out any one so be sure that each child gets some type of prize for trying. To avoid tears and hurt feelings, I would suggest that you provide one larger prize for the winner, and give out cheap "runner-up" prizes to all the other children.
