Fun and Easy Party Games

Easily the best way to keep the kiddies entertained at a birthday party is to have a few games pre-organised and this is where I can help.  - Balloon Dancing.  You will need: blown up balloons and music.  The children will get into pairs and clamp a balloon between their tummines. When the music begins they start dancing. The idea is not to drop the balloon. The pairs can even try to get the other dancers to drop their balloons but not with their hands!

Being a parent usually means glamorous, crazy New Years Eve nights out are a thing of the past but hopefully a thing of the future too. Why not enjoy the middle ground – your children would be delighted to spend the biggest party night of the year in your company. You know your children best and know if they will last the distance until midnight, if not then give them naps during the day or bring the clocks forward two hours and have midnight strike at more manageable 10pm. This trick is great for the younger ones and saved me from some grumpy faces in the past.  At the usual bedtime instead of sending the kids to get their pyjamas on, send them to get their party best on for the rest of the evening.
