Party Games & Activities

• Arrange to pick up all the party kids in the birthday mobile (decorated of course) and take them to a location like a park, swimming pool, hotel with a pool. Turn them loose decorating with crepe paper streamers and balloons getting ready for the birthday child.
• A second adult stays behind with the birthday child for just enough time to get things organized. The birthday child is then brought to the party site where everyone can shout "Surprise!"
• If you want to have the party in your home, arrange to have the party child leave. That way all the partygoers can arrive and the party room decorated before the birthday child returns to be surprised.
• Arrange surprises during the party like an appearance of a storyteller dressed in costume, a sports hero, or even a pony.
