Scooby Doo Birthday Party Games and Activities
This theme seems to be a favorite for kids of all ages.
As a result, you'll need to adapt the following activities
for the age of your child and guests.
A Super Scooby Welcome
For a younger party crowd (7 and under)
Your guest will know they are in for a fun-filled party when you give
a set of Scooby ears upon arrival. You can make these yourself with
craft felt or foam, plastic headbands and glue dots or purchase
Scooby-Doo Poseable Headbands from BuyCostumes.com...
Scooby's Snack Search
Scooby's favorite food is missing. Can you help him hunt
down his biscuits before snack time? Depending on the age of the children, hide Milkbone? dog biscuits throughout the house (or party area), in easy or harder to find locations. Give your searchers a sack to put their biscuits in and let them loose to collect as may as they can find.
Mummy Relay
Divide the children into teams. Each team picks "the mummy" and receives one or two rolls of toilet paper. The object of the game is to be the first team to completely wrap "the Mummy" with their rolls of toilet paper.
If you are entertaining younger children, select an adult to be the mummy and the kids can wrap him/her up together without playing as teams. My husband was willing to do this one year. After the children wrapped him up they then played keep away from the mummy -- what a great dad !
Scooby Snack Drop
You'll need a large pickle jar, dog biscuits and a stool (optional). The object of the game is to drop the biscuits into the jar while standing straight up and maybe even on a stool. It takes a steady hand! Dive each child 3-5 biscuits to extend the play. Everyone gets a packet of scooby-doo fruit snacks for trying!
Flashlight Tag - older kids
To play you'll need a very strong flashlight, like a "Mag-Lite". Play this game in a dark house at night or in a safe place outdoors when it?s dark. A park is an ideal game location.
Find a place to be base. Choose one player to be ?IT?.
The person who is ?IT? waits at the base and counts while the other players hide. Hiders move around during the game.
?IT? searches for the hidden players with the flashlight.
Meanwhile, players try to run to the base without getting caught. Players are tagged if ?IT? spots them with the flashlight and calls out a player?s name. Each tagged player is sent to the base to wait until the very last player is caught.
The last person tagged is ?IT? for the next game.
Set a time limit for the game, if no one is tagged during that time frame, switch the person who is ?IT?.
Variation: You can play a simpler version with young children
by having the children "catch" the light while you shine it
around a backyard or party room.
