Party Games & Activities
Treasure Hunt
How to Play: Hide “treasures” (like gold coins, small toys, or candy) around the party area or in a sandbox. Create a simple map or give the kids clues to find the treasures.
Nautical Craft Station
How to Play: Set up a craft station where kids can draw their own sailboat. Use this image and print it on A4 paper (8.3×11.7). Voila! You can host your party and make it better with fun coloring page session for the kiddos.
Paper Boat Race
How to Play: Fill a kiddie pool or large container with water (as shown in the photo). Give each child a origami/any paper and show them how to fold a paper boat. They can blow on their sails or use straws to make their boats move across the water.
