Free Easter Party Games and Activities

Saturday, October 24th, 2009

Looking around for Easter party games and activities? Well there are plenty of kid’s games that you can find on the web and in party planning books. However you may wish to simply alter a few popular games to fit with the theme of the Easter party.

Remember Pin the Tail on the Donkey? That old game you used to play as a child. You can give it an update by modifying it for Easter. Instead of a donkey draw a picture of the Easter Bunny holding an empty basket. Then have the kids create their own Easter egg out of construction paper, glitter, markers and any other decoration you have on hand. Then play a fun game of Pin the Easter Eggs in the Basket. Of course you can use tape to fix the eggs to the paper. The children that actually manage to tape an egg to the basket get a plastic egg of their own filled with special treats.

Egg runs are lots of fun at outdoor parties. And both kids and adults can participate in these. Have a bunch of boiled and dyed eggs on hand and spoons. The guests can divide into teams of two and each member on the team gets a spoon and each team gets one egg. Have the members of the teams station themselves about twenty or so feet apart and one member of the team balances the egg on their spoon. At the start of the egg run the members of the teams have to ‘run’ their egg to the other member of the team, without dropping it. If they drop their eggs they have to go back to their starting place and begin again. When they reach their team member they carefully trade off the eggs and the other member must begin carrying the egg back to the beginning. If they drop an egg they have to back to the halfway point and start over again. The first team to complete the egg run is the winners.

Party Ideas Help Make for a Memorable Event

Saturday, July 25th, 2009

Inspiration can come from many sources as far as party ideas are concerned. Many publications supply an endless stream of party ideas. Entire television series on cable are devoted to little other than decorating and party ideas.

Often party ideas can be focused to highlighting some aspect of individual character of the guest of honor or the group identity of an organization. Party ideas for High School proms or other dances can relate to popular culture elements that coalesced the group. Then after the theme is chosen party goods in colors that coordinate with aspects of the central party ideas can be chosen.

The same can be done for children’s party ideas. Young children identify very closely with certain cartoon characters and enjoy using themed party goods and decorations. To the young child using these party ideas is tantamount to inviting these entities to their party. Party ideas that can incorporate these characters further help to add to this sense of inclusion of favorite fictional personages.

Games or DVD rentals can further the chosen party ideas. Other ways to incorporate these central party ideas would be to order a cake with the party theme used for its decoration. This works in all kinds of parties for adults as well as children. Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, Independence Day and Hanukah are all easy to match with appropriate party ideas and coordinating cake decorations.

Party ideas may be simple and budget conscious or complicated and high end but the outcome should always be the same. People should come together and enjoy the pleasure of one another’s company. Good party ideas are the ones that make this a memorable occasion for all the right reasons and none of the wrong ones. Party ideas which simplify the process of throwing a good party are the best.
