Games tend to be highlight of children’s birthday parties. Only second to party games in importance are children’s birthday cakes. Cakes and party themes set tone for which games will be best for birthday party success. How to Choose Party Games When planning party games, first consider age of your guests. The limited attention span of 4 year olds will require several very short games where pre-teens might enjoy a much longer and detailed game such as role playing or a movie party. You only need to think of an activity and then give it a slight twist so that it will fit your theme. As examples, a pirate theme could involve games such as finding hidden treasure by following maps. A circus party could involve games such as face decorating, tumbling contests or ring tosses.
