BATMAN PARTY GAMES & ACTIVITIES

BATMAN GAMES - BAT PLANES - Provide the kids with black construction paper, Batman stickers, glitter, and gel pens. Have the kids make paper airplanes and decorate them.

BATMAN GAMES - MR. FREEZE DANCE - Play Batman music and have your little Cape Crusaders move around the room or yard Batman-style. When the music stops, everyone must freeze. If someone moves, they are out. Repeat until only one Batman character remains.

BATMAN GAMES - BATMAN MUSICAL CHAIRS - This game is played like musical chairs. Set chairs in 2 rows, back to back using 1 less chair than the number of Batman characters. Turn Batman theme music on, have Batman characters walk around chairs. When music stops, everyone sits down. Whoever is left standing is out of the game. Repeat until only 1 Batman character remains and she is the winner. You can also play this with large pillows instead of chairs.

BATMAN GAMES -MUSICAL BAT MASKS - This game is played like Musical Chairs, except the kids walk around a table that is filled with Batman masks while the music plays. When the music stops, they each must try to grab a Batman mask and put it on. The child who doesn't get a mask is out. One mask is then removed and the play continues until only one child is left.

BATMAN GAMES - PIN THE BAT ON BATMAN - This game is played like Pin the Tail on the Donkey. Get a poster of Batman and make enough bat emblems as there are players. Blindfold each player, spin them around, and have them try to pin the bat emblem onto Batman's chest. Use double-stick tape. The child who gets the bat emblem closest to the center of Batman's chest wins.

BATMAN GAMES - DON'T TOUCH THAT BAT - This game is played like Hot Potato except use a rubber bat. Put your Cape Crusaders in a circle and have birthday child start with the bat. Turn Batman music on and let the kids pass the bat to the child sitting next to them. Plan continues until music stops. Whichever child is left holding the bat is out until one child remains who is the winner.

BATMAN GAMES - BEFORE THE BOMB BLOWS - The birthday child hides a timer and sets it for 3 minutes. The other Batman characters try to find the "bomb" before it goes off. Whoever finds the "bomb" gets to hide it next.

BATMAN PINATA - Of course a Batman Birthday Party wouldn't be complete without a Batman Pull String Pinata, which is the perfect alternative to the traditional bat for the younger crowd.

BATMAN BIRTHDAY PARTY IDEAS FOR AN OBSTACLE COURSE - Batman and Robin always get themselves into situations where they encounter many obstacles along the way. Divide the kids into 2 teams and create 2 identical obstacle courses. On "Go," the first player of each team starts to run the course. As one teammate completes an item, their next teammate may start that item. Whichever team completes all of the obstacle course and gets through all of their teammates first wins. Select from the following Batman party ideas to create your course:

Box Hop - Lay a row of 6 cardboard boxes out on the ground that are large enough to accommodate the kid's feet with some room to spare. The players must then jump from one box to the next.

Ladder Run - Lay a wooden ladder flat on the ground and have the kids run through each rung of the ladder.

Frisbee Toss - Place a clean trash can 10" from the throw line. The kids must toss a frisbee into the can. Once this is accomplished, they move on. If they miss, they must keep trying until they throw one in. Be sure to have lots of extras.

Balance Beam - Lay an 8' long 2" x 4" board on the grass. The kids must walk across the beam as fast as they are able without falling off, as it would be like falling off a building.

Hula Hoop Run - Lay out 5-8 hula hoops and place them in a straight line. A child then steps into each hoop and lifts it over their head, and then drops it down behind them as they move forward. A helper should be posted at this station to straighten the hoops out after each child goes through them.

Jump Rope - Each child must jump rope 10 or 15 times before moving to the next station.

Water Balloon Balance - Players must balance a small black water balloon on a spoon to the designated finish line for this station. If it drops and doesn't break, they are free to pick it up and place it back on their spoon. If it breaks, they must return to the starting line of this event and get another balloon.

Bat Run - Provide child with 2 pieces of cardstock that are shaped like bats and have them walk from the start line to the finish line for this event by only walking on the two bats. This means they must place a bat on the ground, step on it, place another bat down ahead of them, step on it, pick up the first bat, and continue the process until they reach the finish line for that station.

Balloon Table - Blow up enough black balloons to completely cover a 3" x 6" table (about 100 balloons). Tie several balloons to one another using string, twine, or yarn. Secure strips of balloons to the table top, sides, and underneath with heavy tape. Wrap the legs with foam padding. The balloons will swing and bump as the kids crawl through them.

Crab Walk - Conclude the course with this event. Kids sit on the grass, bend their knees, lean back on their hands with straight arms, and proceed to "walk" as fast as they can to the finish line.
