Musical chairs with pictures?

archiesdad

I read an idea for a version of musical chairs where you put a picture under the seat found it on a party games website but now I can't find it, any ideas?

Any suggestions for other party games for 40five year olds?

Am going to do the corners game, musical bumps, I think pass the parcel will be a bit of hassle trying to stop the music so that each child gets a prize.

At a recent 5 year olds party they did the "bean" game. When the music stopped an adult shouted:
runner bean - they all had to run on the spot
broad bean - arms to the side
string bean - reach up high
baked ben - bend down & make fart noises! (was going to put pump as that is what we call it but everyone will know what I mean now!)

the children loved it. Like musical statues, too slow & you are out.

and Chilli bean, cross both arms across the chest and all go brrrr

and I agree it is very popular when we play it in the playground at lunchtime.

Has anyone said simon says? that is popular too.
