BALLOON BURST

Separate your party guests into two equal groups. Then approximately 25 yards is where you will place two bags of inflated balloons. Make sure the balloons are over inflated to making popping the balloons easier. The use of a bell or whistle will start the party game. Ask a player from each team to act as the first two relay contestants, these players will run up to the bag, and remove one balloon. The contestants participating in the game must then sit on the balloon till it pops. Once the balloon has burst, the players run back to the starting line, and tag the next player in line. The first team to complete the course of bursting all the balloons are the winners.

Party games like name that tune can have everyone in stitches - all you need is a music centre and compact discs with compilations of songs. If this party game is to be a success then play the music to adapt to age groups. For example - the golden oldies for the older generation and if it is an eighteenth birthday party (younger generation) then more updated tunes.

Play the first few bars, and see which guest can name that tune in the shortest space of time. Be sure to keep track of the point system and give an award to the winner and by doing this it will make the game more exiting because people love winning prizes. If your group is large, play a variation on this game. Using well known songs, list the song titles on one side of a sheet of paper, and the original artists/songwriters overleaf. Give a copy to each guest. Challenge the guests to match as many as possible.

For all your flexible friends then the Limbo game will go down a treat (excuse the pun)

For this party game type of entertainment use a string of sparkling lights, a strand of glittery garland and a bamboo pole. For fun variation on the game, you can make it more challenging by adding a "Super Stomach" padded around the party guests waist as they each take their turn.

Another game for all age groups is the common and popular hip swirling hula hoop. There are many way the hoop can be used as entertainment. You can have a contest for who can keep the hoop swirling around the waist the longest. Another way the Hula hoop can be used for is, to have it rolled along the ground where each guest with the use of a stick or their hand will run with the hoop in motion till they reach the finishing line.
