Balloon Games to Make any Birthday Party Special July 19
Here are a list of super fun Birthday Party Balloon Games. Some are classic balloon games that you might remember from when you were a kid and others are new favorites. But, one thing is certain… these Balloon Games are sure to make any Birthday Party special.
Balloon Pop - Insert a note into each Balloon. One of the balloon should say, "Winner". The rest of the notes can say anything you want… a joke is always cute. Fill each balloon up all the way. Place the filled balloons around the house and let each child pick one to pop. The child who pops the Balloon with the "Winner" note is the winner. Catch the Balloon - Have the children sit in a circle. In the center of the circle have an adult holding a blown up balloon. The adult will throw the balloon in the air and call out one of the children’s names. The child whose name was called gets up and tries to catch the balloon before it lands on the floor. If the child catches the balloon she gets to stand in the center of the circle and call out another child’s name when she throws the balloon in the air. Balance the Most Balloons - This game is tons of fun!! Blow up 20 balloons. Set a timer for 90 seconds. When the timer begins have a child try and hold as many balloons as he can. He is allowed to hold the balloons any way he can as long as he receives no help from an adult. He can put balloons in his clothes, teeth, under arms, in between legs… whatever way he can as long as he is holding them. See how many balloons he is holding when the timer goes off after 90 seconds. Write down the amount and set the timer for the next child. Whoever was holding the most balloons after all the children have participated is the Winner. Balloon Pop Relay - This game is played with two or more teams. Place 5 or more children in a line. If there are 10 kids there will be two teams, if there are 15 children there will be three teams… and so on. Have a bag filled with balloons ahead of each of the teams about 20 feet away. When an adult says start each team’s first player will run over to their bag of balloons and pick a balloon to sit on. Once the team player pops the balloon they will run back to their team and tag the next player. Once the next play is tagged this player will run to the bag of balloons and pop a balloon and run back to his team. All teams will do the same thing at the same time. The first team to finish the relay is the winner. |
Stuffed Shirt - Each team has two players. One of the children on the team will put on a baggy shirt. The other child will be a balloon stuffer. It does not matter how many teams you have. Give each team about 15 - 20 balloons. Start a timer for two minutes. The stuffer will have two minutes to stuff as many balloons into the child’s baggy shirt. After two minutes the team with the most balloons stuffed into the baggy shirt is the Winner. Balloon Yummy Fun - Before you start blowing up balloons fill the balloons with candy. Hand each child a party favor bag. Place the candy filled balloons on the floor. Have the children make a circle around the candy filled balloons. Put on some music and tell the kids that they are supposed to pop the balloons when the music is playing and stop popping the balloons when the music has stopped. When you are finished playing music and all of the balloons are popped have the children fill their party favor bags with candy. **Make sure the kids do not step on each other.** Water Balloon Toss - This balloon game is a classic and it is still as much fun as it was when we were kids. Have the kids match up with another child. Have the pairs face each other. When you say begin they children will make their first toss. Each team that make a successful catch take a step away from each other. The game keeps going like this until the final pair is still playing. This final pair is the winner. |
