Good party games for 5 year olds?

[Effjay]

Have decided to have a relatively small-scale party in the house this year for DS1 who'll be five at end of Nov. I think I can cope with about 8 kids. I know of musical bumps, pass the parcel and musical statues, but am struggling to think of others to keep them entertained.

Any ideas?

I had a birthday party for my DCs today.
DD is 4 and some of her guests were 5.
We played "pin the beak on the penguin" (it was a penguin themed party) and "duck, duck, penguin" (instead of duck, duck, goose).
They also did a stamping and colouring craft that they could take home afterwards.
Some of the time they also played with the toys in the house and entertained themselves quite happily.
