Monster Party Games and Crafts

Keep your little party monsters busy with these fun monster-themed activities.

Monster Dash
This is a monster version of the popular Red Light/Green Light game. Let the birthday child be the monster first, and stand facing away from the other players. If you wish, provide a monster mask for him/her to wear. The other players should stand about 25 feet away. When the monster says “Dash”, the players should creep up on the monster while his/her back is turned. The monster should quickly say “Stop” and turn around. The players must freeze where they are as soon as they hear the word “Stop”. If the monster sees anyone still moving, that person is out. The monster should continue saying “Dash” and “Stop”. The winner is the one who passes the monster first. This person gets to be the monster in the next round of the game.

Mummy Wrapping Game
What You'll Need:

• Rolls of toilet paper
• Fun music such as “The Monster Mash”

At The Party:
Divide the children into teams of three and give each team a roll of toilet paper. Tell the children their job is to wrap one member of their team like a mummy, but do not wrap the face for safety reasons. Turn on the music, set a timer for ten minutes, and let them begin. Once finished, let all the mummies walk around and model their wrapping job for the other guests. If desired, let the children vote for the best mummy.
