Party Games Books

We bought this book on the occasion of our twin daughter's fourth birthday. It just so happened that developmentally they had started getting into playing games a few months before. We had initially thought just to break open the book at the party, but as usual, the girls spotted it on its arrival from Amazon. We ended up reading it almost every night, and they loved learning how to play the various games, and were excited about teaching their friends. To be honest, we didn't use all the games at the actual birthday party- too many things were going on. Still we were able to play a few of the games, like pin the tail. We'll probably use it again next year. Highly recommended if your parenting style is not the type that tries to outdo others with hiring more extravagant clowns or ponies...

I just finished reading this book the other day, and I think it's very cute and funny! Diglett is having a birthday party and four of it's friends have come to celebrate. However, there's one problem: Diglett's cave is so dark that no one can see anything! However, Diglett continues to have his party even though his friends can't see. I think it's cute to guess what Diglett and his family look like. We get to see the inside of the cave twice: once when the candles on Diglett's cake are lit, and another time when the toy plane that Diglett got for his birthday breaks a hole in the roof of his cave and lets light in. I think this a very cute book because kids can use their imaginations to envision what the members of Diglett's family look like.

Both my boys love this one. We read it every night before bed for a week. It is a very sturdy board book and a cute story. There are a few sentences on each page. The pictures and story are fun! I like this author's books. If you like this one you might like Pikachu in Love by Tracey West. It is a picture book with several sentences per page.

Written by Mallory Loehr, (Water Wishes, Earth Magic, Wind Spell), this book will teach a little history and provide you and your little girl(s) with so many opportunities to get creative! From making a fairy's wand to glass slippers to frozen chocolate bananas, you won't run out fun with this book! A friend of mine who has three little girls bought this book and immediately went to work with his three girls and created some magical princess stuff! Outstanding!

This book is about Katy and Tim and how they have to find the Puzzle Town party. They have to solve many puzzles to get there.

I liked this book because I liked finding my through the mazes and getting to the party and finding out who the balloon thief was. I have almost all the Puzzle books, and this one was the best! It was harder than Puzzle Mountain, Ocean, Planet and Jungle. Signed, SYDNEY

It's about time that someone wrote a book about classroom parties. I know that when I was room parent it was not always easy to come up with ideas or help. With this book, it outlines exactly what a room parent needs to have a successful party. It includes game suggestions, arts and crafts suggestions and a section how to get other parents involved. I recommend this book to anyone who is going to volunteer to be room parent.

The book Summer Party is by Cynthia Rylant. A quick summary of Summer Party is that three girls named Tess, Rosie, and Lily live in their Aunt Lucy's attic for the summer. At the end of the summer, the three girls plan a party for their family. They're at the party with Japanese Lanterns, entertainment, and fortunes. After the party, Michael, Aunt Lucy's boyfriend asks, "Aunt Lucy will you marry me?" I would give this book to my friend Renee because she loves the summer.

What a great party we had. We made 1 cookie of each cookie cutter for each child to make. We read the story. The kids were on the edge of their seats the whole time we read the story. After that each child was able to eat 1 cookie and take the other 5 home. Everyone had a blast. I think next time we will do a scavanger hunt like the recommend. The whole party the way I did it only took about 1 hour to do.

Waltz the Hall is a great resource for play party games, otherwise known as folk songs with dances. I have used it to teach many times. It also contains historical information about the American "play party."

This book is like an invention with thousands of neat ideas. I will like to recommend this book to all kids and adults who want fun. I also want to recommend ZOOMzingers, by Amy E. Sklansky for brain teasers and body teasers.
