Looking for a new game or activity for your upcoming party? How about something to keep the kids busy? Even if you want the adults to have some fun. Take a look at our game ideas. Some games are very simple, geared toward an age-specific crowd, while others are extremely difficult and challenging, but very exciting and intriguing nonetheless. If you have some ideas of your own let us know! We would love to hear from you! Note: any items needed are to be purchased by the party coordinator
"Let's Make A Deal" : Where you ask audience members for an object that not everyone might have in their purse or pocket but chances are somebody will have one...like a red hair pick or a silver money clip...then give them a prize like a can cozy or hat from the bar.... then you can ask them if they want to keep that prize or go for whats in your hand/box/bag. Etc. and THAT prize could either be a bag of pretzels or a CD or a t-shirt or a smooch from Large Marge who is all too willing to lay a big kiss on anybody
"Singing Bee" : You pick the genre and then the DJ will play a song and then stop it in the middle of a verse. The participant will then have to continue the lyrics.
"Truth or Dare" : You ask somebody up and you ask them a personal question and if they answer the audience decides whether they are telling the truth or lying.... or they can do a Dare and they have to do something stupid like sing a song or do a lap dance or whatever.
"Pass the Buck" : Say the room you are playing in is set with (10) ten (8) eight-foot round tables with (10) ten chairs each. Prior to the start time of the event and after doing sound and light checks, I place an inexpensive item (such as a $5 Blockbuster gift certificate) in a plain mailing envelope. I then take the sealed envelope and tape it to the bottom of one chair at each table. At my discretion during the evening, usually when I think an "ice-breaker" is needed, I instruct everyone to reach under his or her chairs and remove whatever they find attached (unless of course it's dried gum or worse!) Once they remove the envelope, I ask that they hold the envelope high in the air so that I am able to determine that each table has an envelope. Once this is accomplished, I instruct all attendees that they are to "pass" the envelope to their right as appropriate music plays (the Final Jeopardy tune works great here). When the music stops, I instruct the person holding the envelope to stand up. (I build this up during the passing of the envelope to make this person think that they are the winner) When all holders of the envelope are standing, I then instruct them to pass the envelope to the person seated to their immediate left. This is the winner of the prize.
"Lets Do the Twist" Dance Contest! : Hip shaking' mamas and toe tapping' daddies unite! Our DJ or MC puts each finalist in the spotlight Dick Clark-style, each of whom receives a special prize. Frankie and Annette would be jealous!
"TV TRIVIA" & "NAME THAT (TV THEME)TUNE" : Do you know the name of Little Ricky's babysitter on "I Love Lucy", or Latka's wifes name on "Taxi"? Can you be the first to identify the theme from "Cheers", "The Jetson's", or 100's of classic tv show theme songs? You'll be surprised what you remember about classic TV shows! Team up for fun and prizes for all!
LIMBO-RAMA! : How low can you go? Chubby Checker and Harry Belafonte provide the beat to get your guests moving. Great for luaus, Sixties, or beach theme parties. Watch the fun as your crowd bends over backwards" for prizes.
SUCK IT UP! : A wild relay race using nothing but suction! Teams line up and each member is given a straw. The object is to get a marshmallow from one side of the room to the other using only the suction power through your straw. Each winning team member gets a prize.
HULA "HOOP-A-THON" : Get into circular motion and bring plenty of laughs to your event! Bring the funky neon hula-hoops -- your guests indulge in centrifugal force. Plenty of prizes for everyone who shares the fun and those who "hoop" the longest!
DIGITAL FIESTA! : Ole! We line up the sombreros and give each senor and senorita three compact discs. All they need to do is sail ONE of those CD's smack dab inside the hat to win! A fast moving game, that assures lots of happy prizewinners.
HUGGY BEAR : Everyone starts dancing. When music stops, the emcee calls out a number, and everyone must get in groups of that number. Becomes creative when: everyone in group must wear one shoe, have one person in group with braces, etc
SCAVENGER HUNT : Our MC will call out miscellaneous items that each child must go out into the crowd or facility and find, and return to the dance floor. The first one to return with item wins that round.
"Coke/Pepsi" : Each team consists of 2 players, at opposite sides of dance floor, facing each other. “Coke” or “Pepsi” is called, and one member of team runs to other and sits on partner's knee. Many variations of this game are played and instructed by our MC.
MUMMY WRAP : Usually a fun diversion for the guest of honor. This can be a competition to include several teams. The rules are—there are no rules. How creative can you and your team get?
LIP SYNC COMPETITION : Can be individual or team-play. You choose the song or artist, your group, and we'll handle the rest!
MUSICAL CHAIRS : Always a classic at any type of party. By the way, have you ever seen your parents and other adults do this game? We have.
BUBBLE GUM BLOWING CONTEST : The only question here is: regular or sugarless? Not ideal with large groups of kids with braces.
