Do any of you have game ideas for a 2 year old birthday party. It is next month, so I don't know how much we can do outside.
Love to hear any suggestions and ideas.
I don't think I would bother with games. If outside: Have some balls and frisbees to play with; a tent is fun if you have one, or make one by draping an old sheet over the clothesline and tying down the edges; big boxes to crawl through.....
Inside: roll balls on floor, play with blocks/cars/trucks/dolls, dance to kids' cds; you could try pin the tail on the donkey but you'd really have to help them...
Just have fun!

If most of the kids are around age 2, they will probably have the most fun just playing :)
They love to play with balloons--blow some up and leave them around.
Other than that, I really don't think 2 year olds would play many games...
Pinata.. they do not need a blindfold, let them bang away on it..
If you do not like candy, fill it with individual packaged fruit snacks, stickers, tattoos, bandaides...
Play hide and seek with a toy, that they can search for..
Pin the tail on the donkey type game is good for that age. I always do a different themed one so it is not the boring old donkey. We had a Shrek party and I printed a big poster of shrek and used some green playdough or sticky type slimy stuff and we did pin the buger on shrek. We had a teenage mutant ninja turtles party and used a big TMNT poster and cut out eye masks and did pin the mask on the ninja turtle. We had a luau party and printed out big palm tree posters and cut out coconut shaped peices of paper and did pin the coconut on the palm tree. You can do one for whatever theme your party is.
I have yet to meet a 2 year old that doesn't love to LIMBO! You can get an inflatable limbo stick at the party store for about $2. You can buy the original Limbo Song from iTunes. When I did this at my 3 yo's party, the kids wanted to do it for waaaaay longer than I have allotted.
Also, Simon Says/Mother May I? are good for 2 yo's.
Also, pin the tail on the donkey, and a bean bag toss would both be games simple enough for 2 year olds.
Have fun!
I think just playing would be fun! You could set up differnent tables with activities. If outside you could have bubbles, you could do coloring, or tell everyone to wear old cloths and have some finger painting! Or just buy a bunch of diffenrent balls and let them run! You can buy pinatas that you dont hit but the kids grab a string and pull it! 2 yr olds with bats could be scary, plus none of em might hit it hard enough to break it! Good luck!
