[Birthday] Ranking of Popular Skits and Performances

Celebrate with the star’s mask78rank/position

Let's make masks for birthday parties and surprises

Some people prefer surprises that pack a punch.

Here’s a suggestion: a surprise using a mask of the person you want to celebrate.

First, prepare a photo of them, enlarge it, and cut out the face.

Then reinforce it with cardboard to finish it as a mask.

Make lots of these, and if everyone wears one to celebrate, they’ll be truly stunned.

The bold look will also pop in commemorative photos.

Start by choosing a great photo of their face.

Lift-the-flap panel: “Whose ears are these?”79rank/position

Whose Ears Are These? An Interactive Panel for Use in Daycare and Birthday Parties

A peek-a-boo panel called “Whose Ears Are These?” where children imagine what animal it is from a glimpse of a picture through the gap in a bag.

It’s a fun activity that sparks kids’ curiosity and desire to explore as they wonder, “What’s hiding in there?” A piglet, raccoon dog (tanuki), fox, and cat appear in sequence, leading naturally into the song “Kobutanuki Kitsuneko.” Beyond animals, you can adapt the content to match your event—fruits, vehicles, characters, and more—for lots of different ways to enjoy it.

It gets even more exciting if you vary the speed of the quick peeks to suit the children’s reactions or add a few trick questions.

Communication game80rank/position

[Free to do] Easy and fun at-home play for kids and adults: the Communication Game! #9

Let’s play a teamwork-testing game called the “Communication Game”! A prompt is given, and all participants have to match their answers—simple in concept, but surprisingly tricky, and it gets even harder with more people.

For example, if the question is “What’s a typical rice-ball filling?”, try to guess and answer with a common onigiri filling or one you think everyone present is likely to choose.

You can add rewards or penalties based on the number of correct matches.

Picture shiritori81rank/position

[At-home Play 🏠] Trying Picture Shiritori 🖼 The Master Painter Appears!! Wait, are they actually a natural airhead??

Picture shiritori is also a popular party game.

In regular shiritori, you pass along words using speech.

However, in picture shiritori, you convey the words through drawings.

The most exciting part is that, depending on how the illustration turns out, the word might not be conveyed correctly.

By the way, there are also online services that let you enjoy picture shiritori.

So it’s perfect when you want to play with friends who are far away.

Fish pencil case82rank/position

Fish? No, these are all pencil cases.

If they’re a high school student, they probably use a pencil case at school or at home.

So here’s a gift idea: a pencil case that looks remarkably like a real fish.

If they’ve never seen one before, they might be surprised by how lifelike it is.

It almost seems like you can smell the fish… well, not really, of course.

If you want to give something that’s both gag-worthy and practical, this is a great pick.

It’s affordable, and—as you’ll see if you look it up—there are tons of varieties, which is a big plus.

candy bouquet83rank/position

[100-yen shop ♡ Candy Bouquet 💐] #100yenDIY #CandyBouquet #Handmade

Flowers make lovely gifts, but how about a bouquet made of sweets? Pick up the materials at a 100-yen shop and buy plenty of the treats you want to give.

Place a sponge (floral foam) inside a basket to hold the candy “flowers.” Make the flowers by attaching the sweets to bamboo skewers—these act as stems—using candy tape.

Once you’ve arranged the flowers evenly by sticking them into the sponge, decorate with wrapping paper, colorful ribbons, and artificial flowers to finish your candy bouquet.

It’s bright, cute, and delicious—and the recipient will be excited to discover what treats are inside.

Give a delightful candy bouquet a try!
