Party games for 3-4 year olds - Bag target pinata games





Party games make kids birthday parties come to life! Party children anticipate the birthday games as a key part of the birthday party fun. Kids activities range from musical chairs to pass the parcel to pin the tail on the donkey – all wonderfully fun games for your children’s party.

Bag target pinata games

This is an easy everyday version of a pinata game (minus the sugar) that will use up some energy and help your kids practice gross motor skills at the same time.    

Number of players:

2 +

What you need:

  • A bag made of strong paper, plastic or fabric
  • Newspaper
  • String
  • A wooden spoon

Activity:

Get your kids to help you tear up newspaper and roll it into balls to fill the punching bag. Stuff it nice and full (the tearing and scrunching is the best part for two year olds.)
When it's full, tie it tightly with string and attach a string to hang it from a hook or doorway.
The idea is simple: try to hit the bag with a wooden spoon. Your kids will shake out a lot of sillies using the bag as a target.  

Hints and tips:

  • You could make a craft activity out of making your own simple drawstring bag and decorating it with a clown face for parties.
