Atama-Oshiri Game
https://www.tiktok.com/@kty_kids/video/7255170409799208210The Head-and-Tail game that builds excitement to the rhythm is an easy one for kids to join.
The quizmaster chooses a word and tells the answerer the first and last letters.
The answerer thinks about the letters that go in between, completes the word, and answers.
Setting a time limit makes it even more exciting.
A tip for the quizmaster is to prepare simple, easy-to-understand words like fruits or animals.
If it’s too hard, give hints along the way to help them find the correct answer.
Ping-pong ball carrying game
https://www.tiktok.com/@bear_kids_official/video/7446730706438327569Place the specified number of ping-pong balls at the start position.
At the starting signal, carry them to the paper plate at the finish line by placing them on a spoon one at a time.
The first person to carry all their balls wins.
Be careful not to drop them along the way or let them roll off when placing them on the paper plate.
You can substitute the spoon with a ladle or similar utensil, so adjust things so it’s not too easy or too hard.
It works for individual matches, but if there are many participants, a team relay format will make it more exciting.
Telephone game

♬ Exciting song with a cute atmosphere(1329495) – Hinatarou
A telephone game at the graduation party sounds like it will create a warm atmosphere full of laughter and emotion.
Form teams so they have equal numbers.
The first person listens to the message and passes it to the next person accurately and quietly so others can’t hear.
The last person announces the message they received on behalf of the team.
The team that conveys the message correctly wins.
Since it’s a graduation party, it’s also a great idea to use messages of thanks to the teachers or fun memories as the content.
If that’s too difficult, you could make the sentences shorter.
Balloon Popping Challenge!
https://www.tiktok.com/@bom2tv/video/7065568220337507586Line up the balloons in a row and the game begins! Jump on the balloons to pop them one by one.
The winner is the person who pops all the balloons first and then pops the single balloon placed at the end by hand.
Popping balloons can be surprisingly scary, so you might not do well at first—but be brave and try stomping down with confidence.
If you’re playing with a large group, prepare plenty of inflated balloons in advance.
Also, since moving balloons can be dangerous, make sure to secure them firmly to the floor.
The “Come here, come here” game

The “Come Here, Come Here Game,” which lets kids have fun while moving their bodies, is a favorite among children.
After choosing a tagger, the tagger calls out to the children by saying “Come here, come here,” but the key is to leave pauses between the calls.
The children move forward in time with the calls.
When the tagger says “It’s a ghost!” everyone runs away as fast as they can.
The first person the tagger catches becomes the next tagger.
It gets more exciting if the tagger says different words before saying “It’s a ghost!” At first, it might be easier for the children to understand the rules if an adult joins in and helps run the game.

Balloon Relay

The balloon relay game, which centers on concentration, has simple rules and is fun for everyone.
Split into teams and, in pairs, carry a balloon on a cloth without dropping it.
Go around the cone and come back, then pass the cloth and balloon to the next pair.
When carrying the balloon, coordinate your movements so you don’t drop it.
The team that reaches the finish first wins.
Using different balloon colors for each team makes the game easier to follow.
Do your best and aim for the championship!
Crab-Crab Three-Legged Race

Speaking of three-legged races, two people stand side by side, tie one of their legs together with a cord to make a single leg, link shoulders, and aim for the finish line, right? But in this “Crab-Crab Three-Legged Race,” the two people stand back-to-back and tie both of their legs together.
Then they link arms and head for the goal.
Since you have to move sideways, it’s surprisingly hard to make forward progress compared to a regular three-legged race.
It’s plenty of fun even on a short course and can be done in limited spaces, so why not get everyone fired up—including the teachers?
