whipped bubble relay

You may want to play this game outside because it can get messy.
You will need Cool Whip, a bowl for each child participating, bubble gum and
blindfolds. You will put a piece of gum in the bottom of each bowl and cover
with the Cool Whip.

Place the bowls across the room from the children. Have
them pair up with a partner. They will get to choose who will go first between
the two of them. Have the one going first put on the blindfold and face the bowls.
When the game starts that person who can see will verbally guide their partner
to the bowl.

Once they have arrived the blindfolded will have to search for the
gum using only their mouth. Once they have the gum they have to chew it up and
blow a bubble. They will then run back to the finish line, place the blindfold
on their partner and now it’s their partners turn to do the same. The team to
finish first wins the game.

gumballs, gumballs, in a dish!

This is a pretty simple game, which gives you time to work on other
things for the party. All you need is a jar with a lid, scrap pieces of paper,
pens, an empty tissue box or small container and a large bag of gumballs. You
will need to count the gumballs and keep the number written down where no one
will find it.

Pour the gumballs into the jar and fasten the lid. You can wrap a
piece of ribbon around the jar for decoration purpose if you like. As the
guests arrive have them look at the jar, pick it up if they need, and try to
guess how many gumballs are in the jar. They will write their name and their
guess on a scrap piece of paper and put it in the tissue box or container.

When
everyone has had a guess pull them out and announce who had the correct number
and they get to take the jar of gumballs home with them.

CANDY PARTY GAMES

candy construction zone

Your guests can play this game as individuals but getting them to
join and work together as team, on a project is a good way for those who are
newer to the group to get to know one another.

If you are doing groups,
separate them as evenly as possible. Give each group a box of toothpicks and
small bowl filled with an assortment of soft candies and sweets. Things like
marshmallows, gumdrops, peach rings, gummy bears, and licorice are all good
choices.

Each team will have five minutes to construct something using the
toothpicks and the provided sweets. When time is up, the most creative
construction is the winner of the game.
