SESAME STREET GAME - THEME PARTY GAMES & ACTIVITIES

ELMO'S "I SEE RED" - Prior to the party, hide red objects for the babies to find. Use balls, cars and trucks, hats, flowers,

BUILDING BOXES - Cover square, empty tissue boxes with colorful papers and decorate with numbers, letters, and shapes. Let the babies build with the boxes. In the alternative, you could provide building blocks.

BUBBLES - Put on a bubble show using bubble wands to make big bubbles the babies can watch float and change color and shape. They can also try to catch them or pop them before they hit the floor.

SESAME STREET PARADE - Give babies small musical instruments - cymbals, tambourines, bells, chimes,cowbells, maracas, rhythm sticks, triangle, shakers, horns, and drums and let them line up and march while playing their instruments. Periodically let them exchange instruments so they each get to try a new one.

PUDDING ART - Give each baby some pudding and wax paper and let them create a picture and eat their artwork as they go along.

HONEYCOMB NECKLACES - Let the babies create edible necklaces with string and Honeycomb cereal or Gerber Graduates Wagon Wheels.

WATER BALLOONS - Fill balloon 1/3 full and let the babies play with them on a large piece of plastic. They can roll them around or toss them into Oscar's garbage cans made from ice cream tubs covered with foil and that say, "SCRAM!".

SING-A-LONG - Sing easy songs with the babies that involve movement or sound like Old McDonald.

BOX RACE - Decorate cardboard boxes that are large enough for a baby to sit in. Paint the boxes any combination of red, blue, green, and yellow. Put alphabet and numbers on boxes or Sesame Street characters' names. Put a pillow in each box for comfort. Line the babies up on the starting line and parents push them to the finish line.

OSCAR'S GARBAGE CAN TOSS - Sew red, blue, green and yellow beanbags out of fabric and fill with beans. Make trash cans from ice cream tubs or waste baskets covered in foil. Put "SCRAM!" on each of them. Have babies try to toss their bean bags into the trash can. Whoever gets the most in wins.
