A children's birthday is a wonderful occasion to feel like a wizard and give the birthday boy and his guests a real trip into a fairy tale. The easiest way to arrange a holiday for a child is to hire professional animators, but the child will much more enjoy and remember the time spent with his parents than with a stranger, even if he is an expert in his field. In addition, animators and guest presenters do not always know the birthday person and the team well and therefore cannot take into account individual characteristics when drawing up game scripts for children.
All competitions and games must be prepared taking into account the age of the guests and the birthday person. You can separate games for boys and girls, but the ideal option is for the competition to suit all participants, regardless of their gender.
Kids will enjoy simple and active games more. Preschoolers are more assiduous, so you can offer them several games for attentiveness and ingenuity. Primary school children will enjoy quizzes and board games. In any case, you need to alternate active games with calm entertainment.
Stages of preparing a children's party
Organizing a children's party is actually not that difficult. To do this you need to perform several steps:
- Decorate the room. Balloons, flags, banners with inscriptions, funny photographs of the birthday boy or images with his favorite fairy-tale/cartoon characters can be used as decoration.
- Set the table. There is no need to prepare roasts, mayonnaise salads and numerous snacks. Children will appreciate the sweet table and fruit selections. Of course, the centerpiece of the table is the birthday cake (necessarily with candles, because blowing them out is a fun tradition that every child looks forward to on their birthday). It is recommended to use festive dishes with cheerful designs. Firstly, this will make the table look more elegant. Secondly, children will not be afraid of breaking a plate or glass. Thirdly, this will save parents from having to wash mountains of dirty dishes after the holiday is over.
- Prepare gifts. You can not just give gifts to the birthday boy, but arrange a real quest to find gifts and even involve all the guests in it. If all invited children will participate in the quest, it is worth preparing a small gift for each of them.
- Choose games for children for their birthday.
You need to prepare especially carefully for the last point, because children will quickly get bored of sitting at the table, they will quickly want to move around and have fun.
Don't forget about the prizes for the competition winners. These can be various little things (soap bubbles, funny keychains, stickers, children's stationery, etc.) or sweets.

Birthday games at home
If you wish and carefully prepare your home, you can organize a party that will be no worse than an event in the game room. Moreover, the birthday boy will feel more comfortable in his own home; a familiar environment is the best remedy for shyness.
To prepare fun home games for a child’s birthday, parents need to have only a little enthusiasm, a minimum of time and organizational skills, but a great desire to please their child on his long-awaited holiday.
"Fanta"
- Number of players: unlimited.
- Props: hat, vase, box or other container, notes with tasks, forfeits (personal items of all participants).
- Children's age: 5+
A game familiar to absolutely everyone. One leader is selected, who turns his back to all players. The second presenter chooses a forfeit and asks: “What should this forfeit do?” The first presenter takes a note from the hat with the task and reads it out loud. If the first presenter is an adult with imagination, then you can do without notes and come up with tasks on the go. The tasks should be simple (crow a rooster, jump on one leg, etc.).
Another option for this entertainment could be the chamomile game. The essence is approximately the same, but the tasks are written on the petals of a large daisy. Each participant tears off a petal at random and completes the task assigned to him.
"Painted Figure"
- Number of participants: not limited, but must be even so that participants can divide into pairs.
- Props: none.
- Children's age: 5+
Participants are divided into pairs, each pair speaking in turn. One player from the pair “draws” some kind of figure/animal/plant on the other’s back with his finger. The second participant with the “drawn” figure must depict it. The pair that guessed right shows next. The pair whose pieces are guessed the most wins.
"Self-Portrait"
- Number of participants: unlimited.
- Props: Whatman paper with slots for hands, paints, brushes, water.
- Children's age: 4+
The participant inserts his hands into the slits of the Whatman paper. Next, he needs to blindly draw a self-portrait. The winner is the one whose drawing is as close as possible to the original. This is a very funny competition that will greatly amuse the participants watching the artist.
Games at the table
When the pizza is eaten and the candles on the cake are blown out, you can arrange table games for the children at the birthday party. The peculiarity of these entertainments is that they are held right at the table, without the need to get up and actively move. As a rule, table games include quizzes, riddles, tasks for ingenuity, memory and thinking.
"Remember your neighbor"
- Number of participants: unlimited.
- Props: none.
- Children's age: 7+
A game that perfectly develops memory. Children are asked to look at each other for a few minutes. Then they are blindfolded one by one and asked questions: “What color is the neighbor’s hair on the left?”, “How many buttons does the neighbor on the right have on his jacket?”, “The color of the eyes of the person sitting opposite?” and so on.
"Magic letter"
- Number of participants: unlimited.
- Props: none.
- Children's age: 6+
The presenter offers a letter. All guests must name objects starting with this letter that are in the room. The one who says the last word wins.

"Nonsense"
- Number of participants: unlimited.
- Props: A4 sheet of paper, several ballpoint pens.
- Children's age: 8+
The first participant writes a phrase on a piece of paper that will become the beginning of a common story. Then the player wraps the sheet so that what is written is not visible. He moves the last word from his phrase to the beginning of the next line and passes the sheet to the next participant, who must continue the story.
Example: the first player writes: “One day Vaska came to school.” He wraps the piece of paper and writes again the last word: “school,” from which the second participant starts. He continues: “The school was attacked by aliens yesterday.” The phrase is wrapped, the last word is moved to a blank line, etc.
Music games
What would a holiday be without music! The celebration may end with an ordinary disco with popular children's hits, but during the celebration, musical accompaniment will be needed for entertaining birthday games.
Parents need to prepare a playlist and playback device in advance. It is also worth making sure that all dancers have enough space to demonstrate their choreographic talents.
"Slurred Singing"
- Number of participants: unlimited.
- Props: none.
- Children's age: 6+
A song is chosen that all participants know well. At the leader’s command, the children begin to sing loudly in chorus. When the presenter claps his hands, the participants continue to sing, but do it silently, after the next clap - again loudly. The one of the participants who gets lost and does not get in time with the others is eliminated. The game continues until the song is finished or until one player remains.
"Dancing with our faces"
- Number of participants: unlimited.
- Props: none.
- Children's age: 6+
The presenter selects several fragments of funny songs. Participants are invited to perform an impromptu dance to them, but with one condition - you can “dance” only with facial expressions. The winner is the one who managed to portray the funniest pantomime.
"Dancing with tasks"
- Number of participants: unlimited.
- Props: none.
- Children's age: 6+
All participants dance to the music, just like at a regular disco. The leader periodically announces some tasks (dance on one leg, take the neighbor on the right by the nose, dance in threes, move like a hare/snake/monkey, do a round dance, etc.).

- Number of participants: unlimited.
- Props: none.
- Children's age: 5+
Participants dance as they please. When the music stops, everyone freezes in the pose of a fairy tale hero, an animal, a cartoon character. The presenter must guess who the players are portraying. All guessed figures are eliminated, after which the game continues.
Outdoor games
Children of all ages love various activities. Outdoor games for children at birthday parties, as a rule, are liked most by guests. The main thing is that all entertainment is safe.
Adults need to carefully monitor the participants: children who are naughty can accidentally injure themselves or others (push, fall, hit a bump, etc.). The room should have enough space for movement; it is also better to remove all breakable and fragile objects from there, and move furniture with sharp corners.
"Who am I?"
- Number of participants: unlimited.
- Props: blindfold.
- Children's age: 5+
A presenter is selected. He is blindfolded. The guests scatter, and the host must catch one of them and, with his eyes closed, determine who exactly he caught. If the host guesses correctly, the caught guest takes his place. The game will be more interesting if the presenter asks the person who falls into his hands to perform some task that will help establish his identity (sing a song, imitate an animal, for example, grunt, etc.).
- Outdoor games for children at home
"Water Carriers"
- Number of participants: not limited, but even so that children can split into two teams.
- Props: two toy buckets of the same volume.
- Children's age: 4+
Teams line up in two lines. The first participants are given a bucket of water. Their task is to run with the bucket to the start, then go back and pass the container to the next participant, who will repeat the race. When all participants have completed the relay, the leader will compare the amount of water in the buckets. The winner is the team that not only overtook their opponents, but also spilled as little liquid as possible.
"War of the Balloons"
- Number of participants: unlimited.
- Props: chairs and as many balloons as possible.
- Children's age: 2+
A partition is made from chairs in the room. The teams are located on opposite sides of the barricade. At the leader’s command, both teams begin to throw balloons to the enemy’s side. When the “Stop!” command sounds, the game ends and the balls are counted. The team with the fewest balls on its side wins.

Games with parents
Despite the fact that the majority of the guests are children, and the hero of the celebration is the birthday child, adults do not have to stay away from the fun. Parents can also take part in competitions. Moreover, why not compete with the children (of course, giving in to them just a little).
- Fun games and funny competitions for children at home: 22 ways not to get bored within four walls
"Photo puzzles"
- Number of participants: unlimited.
- Props: A4 photographs, cut into several pieces. It is advisable to take different photos of the birthday boy with friends.
- Children's age: 5+
Participants are divided into two teams – adults and children. Each team receives its own “puzzle”. The team that collects the picture the fastest wins. You can also use a frame from a cartoon rather than a photo. You not only need to assemble the puzzle, but also guess which cartoon the image is from.
"Papa Races"
- Number of participants: teams “father + child”.
- Props: none.
- Children's age: 3+
Competitions for dads and children. Dads get on all fours, children sit on their backs. The goal of the competition is simple - to ride your dad to the end of the room and back faster than the other participants.
"Following Animal Tracks"
- Number of participants: unlimited.
- Props: cardboard footprints of various animals.
- Children's age: 6+
Participants are divided into teams “parent + child”. The goal of the competition is to reach the finish line as quickly as possible. Parents receive two animal tracks. The child should only step on these footprints. The player puts all his weight on one leg while his parent rearranges the cardboard - a trace for the next step.
"Little Red Riding Hood's Path"
- Number of participants: unlimited.
- Props: two ropes at least 5 meters long.
- Children's age: 4+
Not only children and parents, but also grandmothers can take part in this task. Participants are divided into two teams – children and parents. In front of the children's team, the rope is placed in a straight path, in front of the parents' team - in a winding path. The goal of the game is to quickly walk along your path to your grandmother, who is waiting at the finish line. You can take a real “grandmother” from the invited guests. If there is none, then any of the participants can replace it.
Joint games with parents are not just entertainment, but also an opportunity to communicate with your child, bond more with him, and also get to know his friends better.
How to prepare for a visit to the children's entertainment center?
Try to plan your trip so as not to disrupt your baby's daily routine. He may get tired of new impressions or, conversely, become overexcited. If this is coupled with a missed nap or coming home later than usual, it may take a few days for your baby's schedule to return to normal.
Read reviews of the baby center and find out all the important details, such as parking or how well equipped the mother and baby room is. Gather yourself and collect everything you need for it:
- Snack. You can feed a preschooler in a cafe right in the entertainment center, but treating a two-year-old to hamburgers and popcorn is not a good idea. Bring fruit, cereal bars, or other nutritious snacks your child likes. Bring a snack, even if you're only going for a short time—entertainment uses a lot of energy, and your baby may want to eat faster than usual.
- Beverages. A bottle of water or juice won’t hurt, even if there is a store or cafe nearby, to quench your child’s thirst without distracting him from playing or leaving him alone. If we are talking about entertainment for the little ones, and your baby is bottle-fed, take with you some dry formula and hot water in a thermos.
- Diapers. If your little one is not yet potty trained, take a supply of diapers, calculating the amount based on the total time spent outside the house. Bring an extra diaper or two so you don't have to worry if you're late.
- Disposable diapers. This recommendation also applies if your child is still wearing diapers. Don't forget to bring diapers so that you and your baby will be comfortable when changing clothes.
- Wet wipes. Napkins will come in handy when changing your baby's clothes, but even if he no longer wears diapers, they will not be superfluous. Whether you need to freshen your baby's hands or wipe his mouth because he got dirty during a snack, they can help here too.
- Swim diapers. When looking for where to go with your baby, did you choose a water park or other water activities? If he's not potty yet, bring swim diapers; otherwise, bring a swimsuit or swimsuit.
Simple games
Simple games and competitions are suitable for younger children. They can also be held at the end of the evening, when the guys are already a little tired of active entertainment and want to relax. Simple games include:
"Mummy".
- Children's age: 4+
You need to be the fastest to wrap the participant in toilet paper, making him a real mummy.
"Musical chairs"
- Children's age: 4+
You need to place chairs in a circle, their number should be one less than the number of participants. While the music is playing, the children dance, and as soon as silence sets in, everyone must take a chair. The participant who does not have enough chair is eliminated.
Accuracy games
- Children's age: 4+
For example, throw as many lids into a pan, candies into a bucket, etc.
"Fashion show".
- Children's age: 6+
The birthday boy is given a set of accessories. These can be scarves, glasses, handkerchiefs, hairpins and elastic bands, gloves, sparkles, ribbons and much more. His task is to feel like a designer and “decorate” his guests. At first glance, this is a game for girls, but in fact, boys dress up their comrades with no less delight, showing real miracles of imagination.
"Broken phone".
- Children's age: 6+
The presenter speaks a word into the participant’s ear, which he passes along the chain to the next one. Usually the word reaches the last player in a modified and funny form.
"Ocean is shaking".
- Children's age: 5+
The presenter says: “The sea is worried once, the sea is worried twice, the sea is worried three times, ... the figure freezes.” The figure can be nautical, athletic, cartoonish - in general, anything that comes to the presenter’s mind. Next, you need to guess what figure each participant guessed.
"Bubble".
- Children's age: 5+
The task of each participant is to blow the largest soap bubble.
"Crocodile".
- Children's age: 6+
Everyone’s favorite game is “showing off”, when the presenter speaks a word into the participant’s ear, and he must show it to the other players.
To come up with simple birthday games for children at home, parents just need to remember their own childhood. Many modern children do not know old games; even the usual “Stream” or “Loaf” can become interesting fun for kids. But for older children it’s worth coming up with more complex competitions.
An excellent ending to the celebration will be a fireworks display. All guests - both children and adults - can go outside and admire the amazing fireworks launched by parents in honor of the birthday boy.
A child's birthday should be bright, fun and unforgettable. Your holiday will be exactly like this, subject to careful preparation and competent organization. At the end of the celebration, the children will have a lot of positive emotions and memories for many years to come. Parents will feel like real superheroes who were able to make the dreams of their little birthday boy come true.
What should I do if there are no interesting entertainments for kids in my locality?
The ideas of children and adults about interesting entertainment are slightly different - a one-year-old baby will be delighted with even the simplest fun. When your child grows up and learns to handle the road well, start traveling with him to neighboring big cities from time to time. And then go to Moscow or St. Petersburg! We are serious: take a vacation and go with the whole family to one of the capitals for a week - this trip can become one of the most memorable experiences in your child’s preschool life!
