Hi we had a party for my DD who was 2 last week, and i was the same what do i do to entertain 12 children??? i had party bags and balloons etc, but we couldnt think of games that would entertain them sooooo........ i hired a 12ft bouncy castle for them and they loved it! it was only £50.00 for the hire of it for the whole day and they come and set it up and take it away. x

pin the tail on the donkey!!! its great...  and asda do the one with sticky tails as aposed to the pins, better for tiny hands...

get plenty of the same toy and hide them around the room, (like easter egg hunt)enough for every child or there will be tears, stick to one room or youl have lost children, lol!

what about cake decorating too!!   really only good if their parents are staying so they are there to help their child, and only good if you have a large room you dont mind tidying the spillages in!!!!   little iceing bags and raisins, smarties etc in bowls will have them being artistic and creative... you may need to do a wee demo first to show them what to do if their parents arnt with them!!!!   its messy and takes more time than a simple game tho!!

musical bumps is good at that age...

hth and good luck...

At this age, they love dancing. Try some old favourites like the okey kokey and ring a roses. Pass the parcel can work ok too. hth

Has anyone got any ideas, its dd b'day party in a few weeks and I wanted to have some games for the wee ones.
