Decorations for fear factor are made in such a way that the cover of the doorway is covered with cobwebs, cockroaches and the dark tunnel is constructed of polythene which will scare your guest.
The Fear factor theme involves stages and challenges of fun filled play and adrenalin rush where guests are dismissed gradually from the game until the emergence of a winner. You can also arrange fear factor party food and wear fear party costumes to make look feel of the party fearful and excited for your guests. You can also distribute loot bag of fear factor instead of traditional bag to relatives, guests and your kid’s friend.
3. Chocolate making party
Everyone loves chocolate and especially children love chocolate the most. So they will surely enjoy making chocolates. The easiest way for them is to tell them to make chocolates which involve fun. They can playfully make chocolate by molding the chocolate melt in flavors and stored in shapes.
The children can also heat the chocolate in the oven and melt it and also can create lollypop sticks. The children will happily perform chocolate making activity as it is simple to make and will be rewarding to them as they will eat chocolate after the preparation which is the highlight of this game. This can be one of the awesome 10 year old party ideas.
4. Obstacle course game
Everybody will love this game if the theme of the birthday is a pirate party. Your kid and his friends will surely love this game and will actively play it in a garden or a room hall for which it is the perfect game to play in. First create open space in your room than put some islands of chairs, beanbags, mats and cushions as an obstacle.
Let the kids jump from island to island without touching the floor (which acts as a river). The winner is declared those who fall the fewest inside the river that is those are eliminated who touch the floor while jumping on the created obstacles.
5. Escape the monster game
When recently I was at a kid’s 10th birthday party I observed this game which the kids were playing and you will also surely like it to include it in your birthday games for your kid’s 10th birthday. It’s a fun-filled game with lot of energy and enthusiasm in it. All the kids were lined up on one side in a big space. Then 2 kids or adults pretended to stand in the middle of forest as monsters.
Now when the children were running they were caught by the monster and those who caught were also becoming monster. The last remaining child not getting caught is the winner of the game. The children were very much happy while playing this game and were constantly laughing.
6. Musical statues game
Everyone loves music and games together and your kid will surely love to play with his friends the “Musical statues game” on his birthday party. In this game when the music is on the children dance and they have to stand still like a statue when the music stops.
They will be considered out if they move and the last one who remains in the game is declared winner. You can vary the music for the kids to dance and tell them to pose as a particular animal when the music stops. It is a fun-filled indoor game and the children will love to play this game.

I loved this game because the kids were enjoying this game while playing and you will also love to have this game on his/her 10th birthday party and the name of the game is Sand treasure hunt. The children have to put in an evenly spaced tray little pieces of treasure such as little presents, chocolate coins and sweets and keep it completely hidden by pouring sand on it.
Now give each child a flag with his own name on it and tell him to put those flags over the sand. Now tell the kids to put their flags over the sand and after uncovering the sand the nearest item which lies to that kid’s flag, that item will belong to him.

Your 10th birthday party would be great if you organize some art teacher at the party who will teach your kids painting and drawing and make them enjoy with their own creativity by doing different types of creative things.
The kids on completion of their activity will also receive foods, vegetables and cakes in rainbow colors and will get home decor which includes colourful table runner, paper chains and balloons as gift items. Your child and his friends will be thrilled and amazed to do this activity and will also be happy to take home gifts away.

At the Candy Shop Party I saw kids loving candy in the birthday. Since the party was meant for kids to choose their favourite colored candy, the kids were very much happy in choosing their own candies and were tasting and licking those deliciously. They loved the gumballs and the cupcakes. Every kid loved his own pick of candies from the display.

Ever wondered about this party concept where you child and his friends will show themselves glowing under the dark. They would be happy to make them feel glow and show it to their guests and friends in the party. Your kids will surely love this unique party concept of glow in the dark party.

For that you have move aside all the furniture against the walls and give space for the children to play. Give them popular footballer player’s jerseys to wear and make your kid’s father the referee for the match for blowing the whistle.
