Safari Party Games

Here are a few ideas for safari party games you could do during your safari party!

------------------------------------	Print your Own - Pin the Tail on the Elephant - only £1.49. Lello and Monkey have created their own additional safari party game! Go to our Pin the Tail on the Elephant Game and once we've emailed it to you, cut out the elephant and the tail, stick the elephant on a piece of card then put some sticky tape or blu-tac on the tail. A cut out blindfold and winners medal is included! Blindfold each child and let them take it in turns to try to pin the tail on the elephant. Mark who gets nearest and that's your winner!
------------------------------------	Print your own - Safari Stepping Stones Game - only £2.99 This game is similar to musical chairs. Go to buy our Safari Stepping Stone Game and once we've emailed it to you print out as many stones as you have party guests. Place the stones on the ground and play music while you remove a stone. When the music stops the kids need to stand on a stone and whoever is not on a stone is out, until there is a winner.
------------------------------------	FREE Print Out! - Lion Mask Decorating Contest – Download the Lion Mask. Cut out the mask templates and string with elastic. Provide pencil crayons or felt pens, glue, felt, sequins and feathers to decorate. Choose a winner at the end of the party.
	FREE Print Out! - Monkey Mask Decorating Contest – Download the Monkey Mask. Cut out the mask templates and string with elastic. Provide pencil crayons or felt pens, glue, felt, sequins and feathers to decorate. Choose a winner at the end of the party.

------------------------------------

Best Dressed Animal or Safari Boy/Girl Competition – On your party invitations suggest that the kids come to the safari party in fancy dress and judge the winner as soon as they have all arrived at the party.

------------------------------------

Musical Wild Animals – This safari party game is exactly the same as musical chairs, except the children remain seated and pass around one or more wild animal teddies. When the music stops the child left holding the teddy is out of the game until there is a winner.

------------------------------------

Animal Face Painting Stations – Great for older kids! Set up a 2 stations to be manned by yourself and a friend. Specialise in one animal each, for example, one person can offer to paint lions and the other monkeys. This way you’ll become really quick and the children won’t be kept waiting too long.

------------------------------------

Animal Charades - The host should start the game by choosing an animal to enact. The first child to guess what animal is being depicted gets to be the next contestant. The host should whisper to each child, in turn, the animal that they have to act out. The game goes on until every child has had a turn.

Safari Party Games Prizes

Don't forget the prizes for these safari party games – medals work well and are fun and inexpensive - a great alternative to sweets.

Kids will wear them proudly for days after the party has ended. For younger children, try to make sure every child has won one by the end of the party, so that nobody is left out.
