easy games for ds 2nd birthday party!!

[lellow]

any ideas please, all i can think of is pass the parcel & even that sounds quite difficult for twelve 2 year olds.

Tail on the donkey
Pass the parcel is OK if you put 12 layers with the same prize in each and make sure someone is there to help open and make sure each one opens a layer
Sleeping lions/dead fish is good
Bumps is OK
Ring a Roses/Farmers in the den/Hokey-cokey are great fun
Can you borrow a parachute - they are great
Love Wharfrats game

thanx wharfrat & katy mac, great ideas, thanx.

Hi! For my DD's second bday party we did:

Pass the parcel
Pin tail on donkey (no maks though)
Find the cards game. (Hide matching cards around room, and they have to find the bits to make up the picture).

We also had free play, a video, a bubble machine which they loved and danced to music for and at the end I had a load of balloons suspended in a net on the ceiling which we let down on the kids... they loved that!

I was going to do (but ran out of time) some activity songs such as hop little bunnies and dingle dangle scarecrow and other faves...

I also had a ball pool in the corner for those that did not want to join in.

As our party was themed, the children also decorated hats as they arrived to give them an activity whilst they waited for the other children to arrive.
