Babies: 9 - 12 Months

Can you help me with Games/ Activities? Please.

I am having trouble coming up with game ideas or an activity for the children to do at the party. The party is three hours. There will be about 4 two year olds, eight 3 year olds, five 4 year olds, a six year old, and 3 seven year olds. The theme is Sesame Street. And its mid afternoon at our house. I thought about musical chairs, but I dont have 20 small chairs. Please give me ideas.

  • This is coming from the first-grade teacher in me.  How about an art activity/project?  This was always a hit with my kids.  Maybe something that matches the theme....?

    I'm printing out coloring book pages for guests to create a story and sign. Then I'll bind it for Eva. I got the idea here: https://asubtlerevelry.com/printable-guest-book

    And with your Sesame Street theme, you'll have no problem finding images on the web. Hope that helps!

  • I would have a table with coloring books, crayons, etc. I also agree on a craft type thing that goes with your theme.

    What about a pinata?
    Pin the nose on a Sesame Street character?
    Cookie decorating to go along with Cookie Monster?

    For musical chairs you can use pillows instead of chairs. 

    I like alicianrj's cookie decorating idea too.

    I was thinking a "Decorate Oscar's Can" activity.  Give them art supplies and each kid has like 10 seconds or something to decorate the can or if it is an actual can, they can do it together. It can be an actual can or a picture, and you can play with the size.  Keep it for LO or use it to decorate her room.

  • You could pin the cookie on Cookie Monster.  You could see who gets it closest to his mouth. 

    Oscar's Garbage Can Relay Race.  Have one kid race down and put a bean bag in a small trash can then run back and tag the next person who has to run down and get the bean bag and bring it back to the next person, etc. 

    Elmo's World coloring/art station since Elmo's world is all colored with crayons. 

    Ernie's Rubber Ducky Pond.  Mark the bottom of several rubber ducks with certain colors and leave several blank and place them in a wading pool.  The kids can pick up the ducks to see what mark they have on the bottom.  If they get one that is marked then they get a prize.
