Behavior Modification
Following only the clues of cheers and jeers, players are rewarded for becoming perfect posers.


WHAT YOU NEED:
Nothing


HOW TO PLAY:
1. One player, the poser, goes around the corner of the house, while the other players agree on a pose they want him to adopt: standing on one foot, sitting with arm and legs crossed, and so on.

2. The poser then comes back and begins moving his arms and legs into various positions. The other players either cheer and clap (if he's getting closer to the pose they want) or quiet down (if he's heading in the wrong direction).

3. Depending on the age and sportsmanship of the players, you might let fly some good-natured boos and jeers if the poser is way off. But when the poser gets the pose right, it's time for wild cheers and a standing ovation.





Celebrities
Wow the audience with your acting skills in this lively guessing game.


WHAT YOU NEED:
Scraps of paper
Pencils
Container
Timer


HOW TO PLAY:
1. On the scraps of paper, each player writes down a dozen or so names of people or characters familiar to him or her--anyone from Barney to Beavis to Boutros Boutros-Ghali (names with generational significance are encouraged). The names are then placed in a salad spinner or other container, and the players form two multigenerational teams.

2. One team plays while the other team keeps time. At the word "go," one player draws a name and begins offering hints and descriptions to his teammates, who try to guess who it is. (Set your own rules regarding off-limit types of clues.) When they guess correctly, he draws another name. If they get stumped, he can pass and draw a new name. The number of names guessed in one minute is the team's score for the round.





Leisure Suit Relay
Even the coolest preteens still like to get goofy, so take a break from the dancing and step outside for a funkadelic race.


WHAT YOU NEED:
2 suit sets


HOW TO PLAY:
1. Before the party, collect two full ensembles of seventies-style clothing (check out a Goodwill or Salvation Army store if your own closets fail to yield what you need).

2. Divide the group into two teams and give each one a complete outfit.

3. Each team member has to put the outfit over his or her own clothes, then run 15 yards and transfer the outfit to the next kid in line. The team that dresses and undresses first wins.






Shadowing the Suspects
Mysterious shadow silhouettes resemble anything but the usual suspects.


WHAT YOU NEED:
Props
Large roll of paper
Posable lamp
Marker


HOW TO PLAY:
1. Before the party, gather a cache of props: some hats, a trench coat and a pipe, (anything that would be noticeable in a shadow), a large roll of paper to mount on the wall (found in art supply stores), a posable lamp and a marker.

2. One at a time, the birthday child can usher guests into a separate room, where they can select items for striking a pose.

3. Stand each child in profile in front of a section of paper and shine the light on her. Trace each child's outline, then write her name on the back.

4. When all suspects have been traced, gather the kids together in one room and see if they can guess who's who.






Straight Face
For this contest, you'll need one daring comic and several glum-faced challengers.


WHAT YOU NEED:
Nothing


HOW TO PLAY:
1. The comic's mission is to tell jokes, make funny faces or employ any other reasonable tactic (short of tickling) to bring on a laugh.

2. The first one in the crowd to crack a smile becomes the next clown.





Twenty Questions
A combination of concentration and a little guess work solves the mystery behind this classic game.


WHAT YOU NEED:
Nothing


HOW TO PLAY:
1. One player thinks of a famous person, place or thing.

2. In turn, everyone gets to ask the player a question, which must be answered "yes" or "no." For example, "Does it know how to read?" is a valid question, but "What's its favorite book?" is not.

3. Players may ask up to twenty questions total. Whoever guesses correctly gets a turn to think up something.





Who am I?
Break the ice by letting party guests don new identities--known to all but themselves.


WHAT YOU NEED:
Old magazines
Safety pins


HOW TO PLAY:
1. Before the party, cut out pictures of celebrities known to your child's peer group (your child should be able to help).

2. Each guest gets an identity pinned to his back so that everyone but him can see it.

3. By asking yes or no questions of his fellow spies, each child must figure out who he is.





Wooden Spoon Relay
Ending up with the biggest hill of beans is the goal in this three-minute relay.


WHAT YOU NEED:
Two bowls
Dried beans or popcorn kernels
Paper bags
Wooden spoons


HOW TO PLAY:
1. For each team, place a bowl filled with dried beans or popcorn kernels at the starting line, then set a grocery-sized paper bag 20 feet from each bowl.

2. When the race begins, the first person on each team uses a wooden spoon to scoop up beans from his team's bowl and races off to dump them in the team bag.

3. Coming back, the player hands off the spoon to the next person, who follows suit, and so on, until time is up. The team with the most beans in its bag (measured by the quarter cupful) wins.
