Safari Party Games To Get You In The "Swing" Of Things - It's A Jungle Out There

Enjoy a Safari themed party with fun games. Become a wild animal. Try these free games to have a roaring good time.

Children and adults love to play this game of Classic Charades with a safari party games twist! If you have young ones, prepare for this game ahead of time by making a list of safari animals. Cut the list into strips of paper, fold, and place in a bowl. Have the “actor” come to choose an animal one might see on a safari. You can also have them come up with their own animal, but be prepared to be flexible with the “safari” animals as any animal the child thinks up should be accepted depending upon their age. The actor will then be allowed to move and make sounds as if they were the animal. No other words, encouragement, etc. are allowed!

Another favorite safari party game is “Where is my baby animal?” In this game, half of the players are given the name of a safari animal. Each of the other players are given a card with the name of a baby animal of the same type on it.(Ex. elephant; elephant calf) Players are given one minute to find their match. If they are not paired at the end of one minute, they must be seated until the next round. Play continues with the number of players and the amount of time decreasing for each round. The two winners are the ones who are paired up first when there are only two pairs left.

Keep the Safari party theme throughout the party with decorations, favors, and animal music.
