Kids age six, seven, eight and ten are also capable of waiting for their turn during a game and enjoying watching the child who is having their turn. You can either play just for the fun of it, or keep track of who is winning and then give out prizes.
Here is a selection of Minute To Win It games that six, seven and eight year olds will love. You will of course need to use your phone or a stop-watch to time the minutes!!
Challenge the kids to keep a balloon in the air for a minute. Add interesting rules to the challenge, like keeping one hand behind the back or using no hands or only feet. Partner the kids up into twos. Give one child a paper cup and the other child a cup filled with regular sized marshmallows. The pair with the most marshmallows thrown into the paper cup wins.
Play this game two at a time. Fill two empty tissue boxes with ping-pong balls, the same amount in each box. Tie the boxes around the waist of each player. The kids must shake out the ping pong balls without using their hands. The first to empty their box wins or the child with the fewest balls left in their box after a minute wins. This is such an easy party game! Challenge the kids to move the cookie from their forehead to their mouth without using their hands.
The first child to get the cookie to their mouth wins! Draw a donkey on a large piece of paper and make a tail from a separate piece of card. Boil some eggs until they are very hard. The children race to the finish line. Each time they drop the egg they have to go back to the start and start again.
This is an absolute classic kids party game and it is a great game for six, seven and eight-year-olds to play as they can employ an element of strategy to try to win. Any child caught moving or wobbling when she turns around has to go back to the start line and start again. This game is great for kids from six years old upwards. You will need a large bar of chocolate, a knife and fork, a scarf, hat and gloves.
Oversized hats and gloves work super well for extra laughs. Get the children to sit around a plate with the large bar of chocolate on it. Each child takes their turn to roll a die until someone rolls a six. The child who rolls a six then has to put on the hat, scarf and gloves and start to cut and eat the chocolate using the knife and fork.
The other children continue rolling the die until another six is rolled. At that point, the child-eating the chocolate must stop eating.
The game ends when the whole bar of chocolate has been eaten. You will need to have two or enough for however many teams you plan to have baskets or containers to put an equal number of blown up balloons in.
They then have to sit on the balloon until it pops, at which point they run back to their team and the next child sets off. The first team to pop all their balloons wins. You will need doughnuts, string and a washing line for this game.
Buy enough doughnuts for every party guest and tie string round them. Attach all the doughnut strings to a washing line and then hang the washing line across the room — you can always ask a couple of willing parents to hold the line if need be. You will need to have a small selection of random items, a kitchen tray and a tea towel. Plus a pen and paper for each party guest.
Put the items on the tray and let the kids look at the tray for 30 seconds, then cover the items with the tea towel. Each child has to write down what they remember as being on the tray. Fancy Land on Amazon has some brilliant kids party stickers that come in rolls of , including reward stickers , superhero stickers and super cute animal face stickers. These games can be adapted to suit the size of party group and the age of the kids at the party.
Dance to the music, when it stops sit down as quickly as possible. Last one to sit down is OUT! The last child dancing is the winner. Dance to music, when it stops stand as still as possible — like a statue! Any child spotted moving is OUT! Whoever has it when the music stops is out. See the game in action. The children race to the finish line, each time they drop the egg they have to go back to the start and start again. One child walks around the outside of the circle saying duck, duck, duck and then pats someone on the head and says goose.
Pass the parcel to the music, when the music stops, the child holding the parcel unwraps a layer. Duck duck goose is one of the most-loved birthday party games for kids. The process then repeats until the fun stops. Break from tradition and transform the traditional donkey into a unicorn and ask guests to pin the horn. Or, you can pin the tail on the lion for a safari-themed birthday bash.
We bet this is one of those party games you remember from childhood. The last person left is the winner. Musical chairs is a fun way to get your guests moving and expend some energy. Add a disco ball, gold fringe curtains, and plenty of showstopping tunes for the perfect musical game. Before the party starts, find a small gift and wrap it in layers of paper, with pieces of candy hidden in the layers between.
Gather your party guests and ask them to sit in one big circle. Starting with one person, pass the parcel around the circle until the music stops.
Whoever is holding the parcel at that moment gets to unwrap a layer and keep the candy. Keep passing the parcel until there are no more layers left, and the winner ends up with a prize to keep.
For a more eco-friendly take on this classic game, swap the paper layers with reusable fabric instead. Guests can then enjoy the sweet treat and take home the fabric that they can use as a cape for a small toy figurine or a flag for a castle. Simon Says is the ultimate copycat party game for kids. Have some fun with this and use it as an easy way to get your youngest guests moving and enjoying themselves. Make the tug of war easy for a younger crowd, or ramp up the difficulty for older kids.
You could even invite grown-ups to join in, or make it a family versus family team game. Keep it simple or theme your tug of war to match your party decor by dyeing the rope or asking your guests to wear funny hats. Get everyone lined up to play a few rounds of ring toss in this easy outdoor party game for kids. Challenge your guests to throw hoops onto stakes to win points.
At the end of the game, the player or team with the most points wins. Put one grape balanced on top of a mountain of flour.
Each child has to take a turn to slice away chunks of flour without knocking the grape. The loser who knocks the grape ends up with their face pushed into flour!
Wink Assassin: Everybody sits in a circle. When someone has been winked at, they pretend to die dramatically! Would You Rather: This game can get quite fun, especially if you start it off with some gruesome questions. In my experience, kids this age love silly, stinky, and somewhat gross questions! Here are a few of my favorite would you rather questions. Cookie Face: You will need one cookie per player.
Each player has to place a cookie on their forehead and using only their facial muscles get the cookie into their mouth in under one minute.
