Hunt the Ring

Kid’s Party Games

In between all the fun family playtime, its nice to at least keep an eye on things like Manners and maybe even Reading. Michelle on her blog scribbit has a whole slew of great posts.

And GNM Parents asks WWCHD? (What Would Claire Huxtable Do?) about dealing with children sibling relationships when you were an only child and have no reference.

Thanks for the posts! Now on to the games…

Hunt the Ring

For this game a long piece of string is required. On this a ring is threaded, and the ends of the string are knotted together. The players then take the string in their hands and form a circle, whilst one of the company, who is called the “hunter,” stands in the center. The string must be passed rapidly round and round, and the players must try to prevent the “hunter” finding out who holds the ring. As soon as he has done this, he takes his place in the circle, whilst the person who held the ring becomes the “hunter.”

  1. I saw this in the move “Big Night,” which is a favorite of mine. Never thought about it as a kids game. Great, great idea!

  2. Thanks so much for the mention, and this game sounds great–

    my kids are the kind that keep their Easter eggs for a week or two after the holiday, rehiding them and hunting for them again (even without candy inside). My four year old still loves finding things.
