Guess How Many People You See Game

Here is a simple guessing game to print and play next time you are feeling bored or need a family challenge.  Print it in color or black and white.  Don't read the answer on page 4 if you want to take a guess yourself!

The best way to play this game is not to count but just to take a quick glance.  Try only looking at the picture for 10 seconds or less.  Take a guess and how many people you see.

The person who guesses the closest without going over is the winner!

July Fourth Party Games

July 4th happens to be one of our favorite holidays.  Ever since I was a child, we celebrate the day with a parade, barbeque and fireworks.  Some years we even squeeze in a pool party at my brother's house and then the BBQ at a friend's house.  It is a long but super fun day.  

Sometimes when my family gets together I like to create a fun game for us to play.  This July 4th Games packet includes 5 different games to print and play:

1.  Stars and Stripes Keno - a great game for large groups instead of traditional bingo.

2.  How Many Flags?  - can you submit the correct guess for how many flags are on the page?

3.  Red, White, Blue, Flag - modify this game to play with the young to old.

4.  Red, White, Boom - play this game while you learn some July 4th trivia.

5.  July 4th One Minute - can you talk about the various July 4th topics for one full minute?  It is harder than you think.

Download the Red, White, Blue, Flag game for free.

These games are available as an electronic download so they will be delivered electronically after payment.  So no worries if you need last minute group games for July 4th.

How to Play Sardines - The Best Group Hide and Go Seek Game EVER!

Sardines is the best group hide and go seek game ever!  It was a super fun game to play when I was a child and all of my children still play it now.  It works great outdoors or indoors.  You do need at least 4 people to play.  This is a great last minute game at birthday parties.

Here is how you play Sardines:

One person is 'IT' and he/she goes and hides.

Everyone else counts to 50.  Everyone then starts to look for the person who is hiding.  If you find him/her, you hide with them quietly.  As each person find the person who was 'it', the hiding spot gets more and more crowded.  Once everyone finds the hiding spot, the first person who found the hider is it for the next round and gets to hide first.  

I think the reason the kids enjoy it so much is because there is a hint of fear with this game.  You start out with everyone looking, but sooner or later you may be alone and the only person hunting for everyone else.  It is great childhood fun!
