A good noisy game to kick off a Halloween party. Blow up three balloons per person, and tie a piece of thin wrapping ribbon round each one. Each child ties a ribbon and balloon to one of their ankles: the idea is to run around with bare feet (or shoes if you are outdoors) trying to stamp on and pop everyone else’s balloons while trying not to get your own stamped on and popped.
Everyone has three lives: when their first balloon is popped, they tie another on their ankle and start again. (Parents might need to cut off the old balloons with scissors.) Everyone counts the numbers of balloons they pop: the winner is the person who has popped most and been popped least. |
