[Elementary School Rec] Recommended Games and Performances for a Fun Party

Number Jump

[Let’s Play! Indoor Games] Even mistakes are fun! Number Jump!!

Let’s play using both our heads and our bodies! Here’s an idea for a game called Number Jump.

Kids tend to get more excited by games that are a bit challenging rather than too easy.

How about trying Number Jump, a game that engages both the mind and the body? It’s best to start with five or more people and go over the rules slowly as you begin.

First, each person jumps one at a time while saying “1.” After the last person has jumped, switch to jumping in pairs while saying “2.” In this way, the number of people jumping at once increases, so it’s a game that requires concentration.

Give it a try!

Speaking of 〇〇, games.

Speaking of round things? Work together and write the 3-letter answer to the prompt on your flip board!! [Motoki & Silk & Ndaho] #shorts #quiz

The “When you think of 〇〇” game is perfect for an elementary school party because all you need is a small piece of paper and a pen, and you can play it anywhere.

The rules are simple: everyone tries to come up with the same answer for a single theme.

For example, if someone asks, “What comes to mind when you think of winter?” what would you answer? The process of sharing hints with friends and working together to reach the same answer is fun as a collaborative activity as well.

Plus, the more people there are, the harder it gets to match answers, which makes it all the more exciting.

In this game, the host poses a prompt and everyone excitedly works out an answer together, which helps build a sense of camaraderie.

The ‘When, Where, Who, What’ game

I’ve accidentally invented a hellish game that anyone can play…

This is a simple game you can play with just paper and a pen: the “When, Where, Who, Did What” game.

Write random entries for each category—when, where, who, and what—on slips of paper and put them in a box or bag.

Be sure to include your classmates’ names for the “who” category.

Everyone takes turns drawing slips to complete a sentence.

The twist is that at the end, you have to actually carry out the completed sentence.

Bingo Relay

[Recreation] Bingo Relay

Bingo Relay is a perfect game for an elementary school fun day.

This activity, which involves lining up numbers while moving your body, requires not only physical ability but also strategy and decision-making.

Working together as a team, thinking about how to form rows, and then shouting “Bingo!” all at once when it’s completed is sure to get everyone excited.

Each team uses three cones, and since you can’t place many at once, moving the cones becomes an important tactic.

This active game is easy to imagine everyone enjoying, and it will become an eagerly anticipated attraction.

Tail tag game

Tail tag game with everyone

The “Tail Tag Game” is perfect for energetic elementary school kids.

For children who love active play, this game lets them move their bodies while having fun.

Each player wears a tail at their waist and runs around trying to grab the opposing team’s tails.

If your tail is taken, you temporarily step out and wait, so teamwork is essential.

It’s also appealing because you can start easily at home using ribbons or clothespins and plastic string.

The rules are simple, and it can be set up almost anywhere, so kids can really move around.

Why not include it in school events like parties or fun days?

Real Life Game

Players roll dice and move along a board drawn on the ground in the real world, literally becoming the pieces themselves.

Beyond the fun of earning money and trying out jobs, the game also teaches the importance of health and finances.

Each profession’s unique traits and the unexpected events that happen on surprise spaces are unpredictable, yet can be overcome by helping one another—instilling the value of cooperation.

Blending luck and strategy, this game is outstanding entertainment recommended for all ages.

Paper Cup Relay

Paper Cup Relay #ElementarySchoolStudents #BoysVsGirls #IndoorPlay

This is a relay-style game played in teams using paper cups.

You use a two-tier tower made by stacking paper cups.

Hold the lower cup with both hands, shift it to make the upper cup drop, and if the dropped cup lands upright without falling over, you succeed and it’s the next person’s turn.

It’s important to keep two things in mind: move quickly so you can pass it to the next person, and at the same time be careful so the upper cup doesn’t topple.

There are subtle tricks to the game—like how to build the tower and how to pull out the cup—but the tension of feeling rushed makes it hard to apply those tricks, which is exactly what makes the game so exciting.
