How strange - I mean, pretty much everyone will be dressed as Indiana, there are no other characters in the films which would be instantly recognisable!

True, thats always the case when I do the Pirate parties, me and everyone else are dressed the same:) Still its a laugh.

Heres the games I will be doing.

Corners: instead of using coloured paper I have printed off four pictures.

Whip, Skull, Snake, I Jones Hat.

Wrap the Mummy.

Cross the Snake pit: Two pieces of paper each. Stand on one, put the other on the floor in front, pick the other one up behind them and place in front then keep doing that till they get to the other side of the room to collect a sweetie, then back again to safety.

Curse of the Shrunken zombie skull:
All in a circle passing the cursed skull around. When the music stops that person has to step up and walk around the outside of the circle like a zombie. I do this at the Pirate parties and it goes down well.

I thought I would throw in the usual stuff like musical bumps etc to pad it out.

Hi all,
The party was really good. I dressed in T shirt and jeans at first. Then when it was time to do the themed games I put my I Jones costume on, played the theme tune and got out there cracking my whip. I asked the kids who I was. They shout I Jones, I said ‘What Darth Vader’, ‘No I Jones’ was the cry. Anyway getting the kids to use their imagination with crossing the snake pit and doing corners with themed pictures worked really well. Got a thumbs up from everyone and left feeling fired up for another.
