Before I start,  I would like to thanks to one of my Italian friend who provided me some good tips on Bithday parties. Therefore I am going to mention few popular words in Italian language as well :) . Birthday celebration has always been important for each one of us, especially for young ones. It’s their time to have fun and amusement and get their demands fulfilled. Every child wishes for a good birthday celebration, marked by nice cake, gifts, friends, food and games. Planning a birthday party for your kid can be a tedious job and it can give you some sleepless nights as you have to be quick, smart and at the same time innovative to entertain a bunch of kids who are full of energy and pep. Even some bold parent gets nervous at the thought of arranging a party for their young ones and entertaining their little friends with games and activities. 

The best way to engage these kids are party games. Generally birthday parties (that is also known as "feste di compleanno" in Italian language, find more information here) are tight on schedule and so there has to be games which does not consume much of time and yet is full of fun and enthusiasm. Devising games for kid’s party can be daunting, so here we have listed few among the top games that can set your party in the right mood of celebration. 


1. Musical Chair: This game interests everyone irrespective of their age and consider as one of the best children parties (known as migliori feste bambini). First and foremost chairs are arranged in a circular manner which is one less in count than the number of person playing and the other person is given the responsibility of playing and stopping the music. The main idea of this game is, as soon as the music stops people moving round the circle has to stop and find a chair and sit, the person who stands is considered out and some activity is given to him to perform. This continues till the last one is left. 

2. Spinning the bottle: A good way of building confidence in your child and at the same time it is full of enjoyment. All you have to do is make kids sit in a circle and then spin the bottle, the person towards whom the bottle’s opening part points shall perform the given activity.

3. Spoon and Marble: A racing game which also needs balancing. There is a start and a finish line and the kids have to hold spoon in their mouth with a marble kept on it and their hands are behind their back. Once you say “GO”, kids race up to the finish line while balancing the marble in the spoon so that it doesn’t fall. The one who comes first wins.

4. Pin The Bow Tie On The Bear: A simple fun game wherein there is a bear image and the child has to just pin the bow on the bear. The fun part is that the person is blindfolded while doing this. This sounds simple but the results can be hilarious. 

5. Hide and Seek: This is the most popular games of all times which kids love to play. It is feasible both inside and outside and involves everyone, no one feels left out. 

Apart from above activity make sure to have good food including snacks like pizza for children as they would love to have it during the Birthday parties.
