Gesture Game

Gesture Guessing Game [Recommended for After-Parties and Year-End Parties]

You often see gesture games on TV variety shows, right? It’s a game where you look at a prompt and try to convey it using gestures alone—can you get the others to guess it? The person acting can only use gestures and must not speak or use any words.

It gets really lively if you use prompts like kids’ favorite anime characters or animals! All you need is paper and a pen, so it’s a quick and easy game you can play anytime, anywhere—highly recommended!

Bamboo Shoot Nyoki

Takenoko Nyokki (from “The Latest and Most Fun Recreation Games”)

Takenoko Nyokki, which gained popularity from a TV show, has become a staple recreational game.

It was originally played with six people, but it can be played with any number.

At the start signal, players call out “number + nyokki” in order—1 nyokki, 2 nyokki, and so on—but the speaking order isn’t predetermined.

If two or more people speak at the same time, they’re out; anyone who doesn’t manage to say their turn by the end is also out.

Since it’s a simple game of calling out numbers, you don’t have to worry about the number of players, and it’s easy to enjoy even with young children.

Ping-Pong Ball Blowing Game

To the limits of your lung capacity! Blow them out! Ping-Pong Balls [Party Games for Banquets, Parties, Year-End Gatherings, and After-Parties!]

It’s a simple yet exciting game called the “Ping-Pong Ball Blowing Game.” Ping-pong balls are light, so when you blow on them, they roll easily, right? But what if there are lots of them? Fill a bowl or basin with ping-pong balls, and at the start signal, blow to push them out of the bowl.

Whoever gets them out the fastest wins! It’s a game that takes a bit of lung power.

You can adapt it for team battles or time trials, too.

Russian cream puff

I tried making Russian cream puffs!

It’s a “Russian cream puff” that makes you wonder if it’s a game or a punishment.

You often see it on TV shows as a prank or a test of courage! They’re bite-sized cream puffs that are normally delicious with custard cream inside, but just one of them is filled with plenty of spicy mustard.

If kids are playing, you can avoid spicy fillings and put something else inside.

Using vinegar or lemon to make one sour could be a fun idea too!

The “Haa” game

The “Haa” game is too much fun... Kan Aki & Mom

Ha tte Iu Game is a card game popular with both kids and adults.

Even with the same word, the way you say it and your facial expression change depending on the situation, right? This game collects such variations and turns them into gameplay.

For example, the word “hai” (meaning yes) is used in many different situations—when responding, affirming, or asking for repetition.

Separate from the cards that list different situations, there are also cards drawn by the person who says “hai,” and those cards specify the situation to act out.

The speaker performs it, and the observers try to guess which situation it is.

Sweets speed-eating showdown

Super BIG Chocolate Speed-Eating Showdown!

Let’s play a game using candies that kids love: a candy speed-eating contest! If the treats are too small, it ends too quickly, so slightly larger candies make it more exciting.

Long gummies or big brown sugar sticks would be fun too! For kids, it’s a tasty and enjoyable game, but if they spend too much time savoring the flavor, they’ll lose! Try to enjoy it a bit while still eating fast (haha).

It gets even more exciting if you prepare a penalty for the person who comes in last!

Mystery-Solving Treasure Hunt

Tried a mystery-solving treasure hunt game in our secret base! [Dollar Store Easter]

If you plan a treasure hunt game, it’s sure to be a hit.

You could simply hide toys or snacks and have the kids search for them, but adding a clever twist will make it even more fun.

For example, they could solve riddles to get hints about the hiding spots, or crack a code on a treasure map.

You might also design the treasure hunt around their favorite anime characters.

In any case, set the difficulty so that the kids can just barely figure it out—that’s what makes it exciting.
