[Nursery/Kindergarten] Ideas for Performances at Thank-You Parties! Fun for Both Parents and Children

Whose is it? A quiz about the teacher’s belongings

Try a humorous game that puts your powers of observation to the test! In the video, the teachers are holding a “What’s this item?” quiz among themselves.

For the thank-you party, it would be great to show photos of the children’s belongings and clothing as questions for the teachers, and photos of the teachers’ belongings as questions for the children.

It’s a heartwarming game that proves both the kids and the teachers really pay attention to each other! It could also be fun to photograph parents’ belongings and quiz both the children and the teachers.

Definitely give it a try!

♪ Original song – Kotsuyoshi Kids – Kotsuyoshi Kids

Let’s host a fun thank-you party featuring games that everyone—from kids to adults—can enjoy! On the variety show “Banana Sand,” the “Head and Tail Game” has players answer words within a time limit using a specified first letter and last letter.

The number of letters in each word is converted into points, and the person with the most points wins.

It’s guaranteed to get exciting, whether you play in teams or individually with different variations! Writing the specified letters on small whiteboards or sketchbooks makes it easier for everyone to see.

Shadow Play: The Flower of Thanks

Let’s share lots of “thank-yous”! This idea lets you express your feelings along with a memorable song while creating a beautiful contrast of light and shadow.

If the venue for the appreciation party can provide a screen and lights, children and parents can work together to perform a shadow play! Make time to plan the structure and movements and to practice, so you can create memories that last a lifetime.

Performing to the song “Arigatou no Hana” is wonderful, of course, but you can also use the songs sung at the graduation ceremony or any other meaningful tunes.

Name-guessing game

Thank-You Party Name-Matching Game

Feel the children’s growth! How about adding a game to the program where everyone gets excited while looking back at their growth through photos? If you create a quiz using pictures from when they first entered the school or from when they were born, it’s sure to be a hit with the children, parents, and teachers alike! Another nice point is that the quiz gives each child a moment to shine as the star.

Depending on how you structure the video, it could turn into a wonderful program full of laughter, surprises, and touching moments!

Que Sera, Sera in dance

[Step Practice, Easy Choreography, Sports Day Dance] Que Sera Sera - Mrs. GREEN APPLE [Kindergarten, Nursery School, Sports Day, Recital, Kids Dance]

Express your feelings through dance! This is a great idea for those who want to surprise and delight the teachers.

On the day, it would be wonderful if the children could dance confidently while making eye contact with their homeroom teacher and the teachers who have watched over them.

The choreography in the practice video is easy to understand, so sharing the video is a big plus—kids and parents don’t all need to gather; they can practice at home.

On the day, wearing matching sparkly or festive accessories, such as wrist decorations, will make an even bigger impact.

The musical ‘The Wizard of Oz’

2017 School Year Graduation Ceremony Musical: 'The Wizard of Oz'

Children’s literature classic The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is surely a book many people have read at least once.

It’s a popular work that’s been adapted for the stage many times and has long been loved in Japan as well.

So how about trying a musical version of The Wizard of Oz as a performance for your thank-you party? To make it work as a production, everyone will need to combine their strengths, and I’m sure it will become an unforgettable memory.

If it’s a success, it can also boost your confidence for the next step—elementary school—so please consider giving it a try.
