Traditional Party Games for Kids
These two party games have been included in birthday parties  and classroom celebrations for years and continue to be the most popular.

Simon Says
One player is the leader and orders the other players to make
motions by saying 
"Simon says thumbs up" or 
"Simon says hands on your head." 
The leader also makes all of these motions. If he omits "Simon says," however, and just orders "Thumbs up," the players should not make the motion.  Any player who does, is out of the game. The winner is the player who remains in the game the longest.

Circle Keep Away (Hot Potato)
Players form a circle. 
A bean bag is passed from player to player while one player sings, whistles or claps. When the music or clapping stops, the player who has the bean bag is out and sits in the center. The last one out wins. Stops should be made frequently so the game moves quickly and players will not be out for
a long period.
