What are some easy, fun games to play at a child's 4th B-day party? Theme is fairies.?

Decorating should be fairly easy...big cardboard mushrooms and flowers on the wall, lots of glittery streamers in pastel colors -- make the room in which the party is held a large scale foresty kind of place, like where fairies might live. Perhaps, use dims lights in the room and if you have big potted plants, put tiny twinkle lights in them. You could use bare branches if you don't have potten plants -- and, the twinkle lights could be placed on the ceiling like stars, or dewdrops =) Perhaps replace the regular bulb in some lamps with pastel-colored bulbs to give the room a glowy, magical appearance. Games: pin the wand on the fairy? Paint the bulb-ends of old wooden clothespins like mushrooms (I'm thinking red with white spotted mushrooms, a la Alice in Wonderland) then have them drop the pins into a wide-mouthed bottle while standing? (I'm not good with games for kids this young.) Maybe have a "who can stuff the most marshmallows in their mouth?" contest and use the pastel marshmallows.

We used to play a game called "Dead Fish." All the kids lay on the ground, silent and motionless. If they move or make a sound, they are disqualified. The kid who makes it the longest gets a prize. Since you're doing a fairy theme, you could play "Frozen Fairy" or something like that. It's a good way to get the kids to wind down toward the end of the party.

duck, duck, goose, pin the tail on the donkey(how about pin the wings on the fairy), musical chairs.

Go to the website familyfun.com great idea and themes for all ages. There is one there for fairies.

An outside party in the heat screams ice cream cake to me- (fairy themed, of course!) As a little girl, I absolutely adored fairies, I may be 25 now, but I remember my 5th B-day. I'm an august baby, so I too had an outdoor, fairy themed party. It was a pool party. We didn't have a lot of money, but my mom had a lot of ideas and a lot of love! That's all you really need-a creative mind, and a genuine heart. Obviously, money is a necessaty, I'm just letting you know that you don't need to go crazy. I remember loving fairies and rainbows,(Rainbow Bright was big back then!) so my mom made sure to decorate the card very colorful, mostly pinks and purples. She filled the pool with oink and purple water balloons-it looked so neat. Obviously,as a mom I'm sure your thinking of what happens if they pop, a child may try to chew on a piece and choke. You have nothing to worry about as long as there are enough parents and other adults to keep a constant watch on each child. My mom purchasred a set of fairy wings and a magic wand, like for a Halloween costume, for each child. She also got puffy paints, a glue stick for each child, a lot of glitter(since it was for decorating as well as sprinkling), and glittery, shiny wrapping paper. She put the paper in a paper shredder so she had a bunch of even strips. Our first activity was to decorate our own wings with some of the glitter and the puffy paints and to glue the glitterry paper strips onto our magic wands. We glued some of the glitter onto our wands as well. She purchased everything @ a craft store, so it was pretty in-expensive.Waiting for our wings and wands to dry would have been torture, but that's where the second activity came in handy. She went to a bookstore, like barnes and noble, or borders, and purchased a "how to" book on face and body painting. We had already got swimming out of our systems so she didn't have to worry about it washing right off. Each of us got shooting stars on our faces and rainbow typr designs clilmbing up our arms. She had help from the other adults there, it is actually quite simple! By the time we we're all made up, everything was dry. This was when she gave us each our own little special bag that she had tied up with pink ribbon in a pretty little bow the night before. The bags were filled about half way or a little less with very fine irrodescent and silver glitter-A.K.A.-fairy dust! They were the little sandwich bags. With the help of our "adult buddy", we eachsprinkled our magic fairy dust on the wings wands, and of course, each other. We were now ready to put on our wings and become official fairys. Since I was the b-day girl, I got to wear a special srown that was presented to me by the surprise guest, an actual fairy who showed up right after we were all dressed up and ready to sing happy birthday. It was only my moms friend from work, but I never met her before so she was the real deal to me. Remember, you can always pay for a professional too. Another really cool thing was that she rented a giant trampoline for the party so that as fairies, we could even fly. She rented one with a gaurd around it of course. I remember having the time of my little 5 year old life, I really hope that I offered some sort of insight to give yor daughter the same. I wish you the best of luck and a happy 4th b-day to your little girl!!!!!

Pin the tale on the donkey and musical chairs are good ones.

I did this for my daugther that turned 6 in kindergarden. But I think it would be good for any age. I took some candy like a little pack of m&m's or small candy bars inside of balloons. Or little tiny toys but of course nothing with sharp edges. I would get them ready before hand like the night before. But wait until the party starts to blow them up. Then have them all sit on them as a game. It's fun and they have a blast doing it.

Hang different shades of green streamers from the ceiling to where they will be just above the kids heads to look like they are standing under a tree. Then hang many strips of brown in a cluster and have them hang all the way to the floor to look like the trunks of the trees. Add some pastel and bright colored tissue flowers and you have a fairy glen.

play duck duck goose but in some other wording (faries faries princes...yet not so retarted) :)
