Fun Birthday Games for Your Son's Birthday Party

It can be a real challenge to come up with good birthday games for kids, especially if you've never done anything like that before. Maybe the birthday is for your son and you need to come up with activities for all his buddies. What do we know about boys? Well, they tend to be rambunctious, so we know that birthday games for boys should be fun and encourage activity. Here are some ideas to get you going.

Boys naturally love to play war games that involve pretend guns. If the birthday is in the summer, how about a water gun fight? Divide the boys up into two teams and let them fight like cowboys and Indians. The goal of this game is to get the other team more wet than your team! By the way, don't forget to tell your guests to bring extra clothes when you send out your invitations. You don't want them to be sitting in drippy wet clothes when it's time to cut the cake. You can find good deals on water guns if you shop for them at the local dollar stores. You'll be able to find a wide variety of colors and sizes.

You may be worried that you'll have to spend a fortune to come up with good birthday games for kids, but that's not true. One of the most fun games around is also one of the cheapest: Three-legged races. You probably know how it works: A pair of boys get tied together, the right leg to the left leg, and each pair tries to be the first to cross the finish line. If you want to make it even more challenging for older boys, you can turn the race into an obstacle course. To avoid injuries, be sure to match up boys that are similarly sized.

Here's another game idea: Dress-up. Wait a minute, isn't that a girly sort of game? Not necessarily! Girls might enjoy dressing up like princesses, but boys can have just as much fun dressing as pirates. And speaking of pirate themes, you might want to add a pirate treasure hunt to the party.

The spoon race is another fun idea as far as birthday games for kids go. It's easy to set up, too. All you need are spoons and fruits, small balls, eggs, or some other small objects to balance on the spoon. The objective is to have teams hold the spoon with their teeth, and then pass it down the line. The team that wins is the one that passes down the spoon to the end of the line without using hands or dropping the object. This may be too much of a challenge for younger boys, though.

Those are just a few ideas for birthday games for kids. Hopefully you've been inspired to come up with some of your own, too.
