Children's Birthday Party Games

There are numerous great games for Children's Birthday Parties but it's hard to beat a great scavenger hunt. A scavenger hunt is a simple yet really fun game to keep children (and adults!) busy. It can be pre-planned or spur of the moment, either way it's always great fun. This is a great activity that can be adapted for children of all ages, for younger children, just make it more simple, give them a list of items to find, tell them exactly what they are looking for and let them go. With older children, give them clues to see if they can guess and find what they are supposed to be looking for. Have a list of hints that you can hand out if they get stuck to keep the game flowing.The best type of scavenger hunt is a nature one that can be played outside in your back garden or in the local park. A good rule of thumb for nature scavenger hunts is to incorporate learnings for the kids at the same time. Learning mixed with fun tends to work better. Have the kids find items already on the ground but give clear instructions of how to be gentle to nature. Some examples of nature scavenger hunt items include:* A special color or shaped leaf

* A flower of a specify color or type

* Rocks in a certain size, shape, or color

* Ladybug, ant, or a worm

* Moss

* Pine cone

* Anything of a certain colorWith some pre-planning (and a trip to the dollar store!) you can have a scavenger hunt with just about any theme you can think of. For a Secret Agent Mission, hide the clues that they have to find. For a treasure hunt, hide chocolate gold coins that they have to hunt for. Depending on the number of clues and items to find, this is an activity that can take at least an hour or more. Just remember that the younger the children, generally the shorter their attention span. If you have older children and know your neighbours quite well, you can include items that they can knock on doors to find. Teach them how to ask for help the right way, a great skill that will help them through life. Items to ask for include almost anything your neighbours may have, a penny from a certain year, a cinnamon stick, an unmatched sock. You're limited only by your imagination.The best part about this type of children's game is that if the weather's bad, you just bring the activity indoors and tweak the clues to suit. Just be aware of the extra mess and noise that may result!
