Princess Birthday Party - Five Great Games for a Princess and her Court
By Kymberlyn Steel-Fannin A princess birthday party is nothing short of a magical affair. With a little attention to detail you can create an enchanted event that Her Royal Highness and her court will not soon forget. Here are five games you can play to make your childs princess party an extraordinary experience. Musical Thrones- Musical Thrones is the Princess version of musical chairs, the only difference being that one chair is decorated to resemble a throne. The throne can be decorated with silk flowers, ribbons and garlands. You might even want to place a crown on the seat. Just as you would in musical chairs, work through a process of elimination where a chair is removed after each round. Continue doing so until there is only one chair left (the throne)and two participants. The first person to claim the thrown is the Queen of the court. Jump the Moat- Using a large blanket fold lengthwise in an accordion fashion . Lay the blanket on the ground so that it creates a moat. Have the children line up in the front of the moat, each one taking a turn jumping the moat. With each round, unfold the blanket. As the game progresses the moat should become wider and wider. The game is complete once the blanket is completely unfolded. Leaping Frog Princess -Divide guests into relay teams, each team having an equal number of players standing in single file lines. Mark a point of reference that will ultimately become a finish line(garage, swing-set, etc). Tell the players that an evil spell has been cast upon them, turning them all into frogs. The only way to remove the spell is to return to the castle(finish line). The first team to reach the castle will resume their human form. The first player of each team will take a running leap. Where ever they land they will remain in a crouched position. The second in line now take a running leap over the first crouched player. Upon landing, the second player takes the crouch position. The first frog now returns to the line and the third player takes a running leap over the second player, then assumes the crouch position. This process continues until one of the teams reaches the castle. Treasure Quest- Hide a variety of items around your house or yard. Items could include play jewelry, wands or chocolate coins. Tell the children that a thief has stolen the Princesss jewels and as he fled he dropped much of it throughout the kingdom. Give each of them a loot bag and send them off to find the treasure. Toss the Prince- Divide guests into 2-3 teams. Have each team stand in an evenly spaced line, allowing approximately three feet between players. Give the first member in each line an egg. The egg should be uncooked and treated with extra care. You may choose to decorate each egg with a frog sticker or gently draw a frog face on the egg with crayon. The egg is tossed up and down the line until one player drops the egg. The team who goes the longest without breaking the egg wins. Planning games and activities for the perfect princess birthday party doesnt have to be difficult. Just take old favorites and give them a new twist. Your child will have a one-a-kind birthday experience if you just use a little creativity and a whole lot of imagination.
