BIRTHDAY PARTY GAMES
Pin the Stem on the Strawberry
Directions:
Play this just as you would plahy Pin the tail on the Donkey. Make a large strawberry shape with red poster board. Cut a green stem for each player. Write their names on one side and use double sided tape on the other. Allow each player to be blindfolded and take a turn at trying to stick the stem in the right place. The player who is the closest wins. Gibe out small prozes to all the players.
Strawberry Shortcake® Puzzler
Directions: Before the party print out Strawberry Shortcake® pictures from the Internet or from a coloring book. Attach each picture onto some construction paper with a glue stick. Cut the pictures into 2, 3, or 4 puzzle pieces. Hide the pieces around the party area. The children each need to find one puzzle piece and then find the the players with the matching piece/s.
Bean Bag Berry Toss
Directions: Before the party, decorate a large cardboard box to resemble a berry bush. Cut the top flaps off of the box to keep it open. Make or purchase red or blue beanbags. Mark an "X" on the floor with tape. The children will take turns standing on the "X" and attempt to toss the berries into the bush.
Variation: Fill the "Berry Basket", using a green milk crate as the basket.
Pupcake's Mess
Directions: Everyone knows Pupcake is a bit of a mess maker. He has spilled all of the berries throughout the land and Strawberry Shortcake® needs the children's help to clean up the mess. Use wrapped strawberry candies (or other candy). Scatter and hide the "berries" before the party. Give each child an empty plastic berry basket for collecting. Children can play this in teams or individually.
Berry Patch Walk
Directions: Before the party, cut several berries from felt (enough for each player). Use a permanent marker to make a number on each berry. Place the berries on the floor in a circle. Play music while the children step from one berry to another. Stop the music and call out a number; the player who is standing on the berry marked with that number will receive a small prize (sticker or candy). Keep playing until all of the players have received a prize or two.
Plant Strawberry Plants
Directions: If your party is during planting planting season provide a strawberry plant starter, soil and a small planting pot for the kids to make a plant to take home.
Thumbprint Strawberries
Directions: This is great for parties with under 6 children. Use white card stock paper, two or three red ink pads, and green markers. The children will use their finger and thumbprints to make berries. Then use the green markers to make the stems. Or, cut green stems from paper and attach them with a glue stick.
Strawberryland Caps
Directions: All of the characters in Strawberryland have their own special hats. The children at your party can make their own hats to take home. Use craft foam visors (you can find these at your local craft store), stick on jewels, shapes, feathers, gel pens, etc. to decorate the visors.
