Looking for games to play inside the house? Gather your friends and family members for these activities! They’re great for building teamwork and creativity. Here are our indoor group games for kids:
Start a Band
The Party Parrots love music. Some parrots make their own music at the Recording Studio. You can create music too! It’s fun to start your own band.
You will need any of the following: Empty bottles, buckets, pots, pans, spatulas, large spoons
Instructions:
Ask your parents for permission to use things as musical instruments. They could be buckets, pans, and spatulas.
Use any combination of instruments to make music. For example, try hitting a spatula against a bucket like a drum. Try to create a smooth rhythm!
Have a whole band! Bring your family and friends to jam out to music together. All of you will have a great time creating songs!
Tired of spatulas and buckets? Try finding other objects to use as instruments. (Again, ask your parents for permission to use them.)
See how fun it is to start a band? You just need bandmates, instruments, and a love for music!
Run a Restaurant
Friends come together for food! That’s why Party Parrot World has so many places to eat. You, too, can run a restaurant!
You will need: Paper, pens/pencils/crayons, notepad, tables, chairs, radio, toys
Setup Instructions:
- Begin by setting up the menu. Write the names of the food and drinks (and their prices). Make a few menu copies to give out to each table.
- Then, gather tables and chairs. Don’t have enough tables? Use your imagination! You can use a cooler or a box as a table.
- Turn on some music. Make sure it plays nonstop at a low to medium volume.
- Get a notepad and pencil ready for the waiter. They’ll write down the order.
- Use small pieces of paper as pretend money.
- You’ll also need food to serve. You can use your favorite toys as pretend food. Random objects like fridge magnets are good, too! Put all this food in a back area, which is the kitchen.
How to Play:
Assign one of these roles to each person: customer, waiter, chef.
The waiter has the most jobs. They welcome the customer with a menu at the table. Then, they write down the customer’s order for the chef. Finally, they serve customer’s food and collect the money.
The chef cooks the food. Simple as that, but it’s hard work!
The customer eats at the table. Don’t forget to pay the bill at the end!
