Three Toddler Party Activities
Posted by vincevincevince on August 10, 2009
Here’s three activities for toddler birthday parties which work reasonably well…
Toddler skittles
Save up empty pop bottles, the 1.5l ones are best. You need ten. Wash them well and add a cup of water to each. Close the lid tightly and use as skittles. A standard toddler play football or similar works well to knock them down.
This works well with the over-two group however younger children who are able to throw are able to enjoy a closer-range version!
Bubbles
Don’t forget that bubbles are great fun! Just get out a bubble kit and start blowing. If you don’t have a set, just take any wire (pipe cleaner, coat hanger, electrical core…) bend a ring in the end and dip it in a mix of baby-shampoo and water. Try not to sue washing up liquid with very small children as it may get in their eyes! Older children can be invited to join the bubble-blowing fun.
Pass the Parcel
A classic evergreen game! Put a sweet or small gift between all the layers, to keep the fun and excitement up. Smaller children will need some assistance with opening the parcel but they seem to understand the concept well and enjoy it. Find some lively music to make it all more exciting!
