Two American Hero Party Games

Here are a couple of American Hero Party Games that you can use to keep the kids interested in the party and they just happen to fit with the party theme!

‘Famous Last Words’ is a fun word game that the kids can play around the table at your American Heroes party. You can make it competitive or non-competitive based on how funny or accurate the last words they come up with are. Compile a list of American Heroes and some Villains on slips of paper. Mix it up in a hat or basket and have each of the kids take turns drawing from the hat. Give them all a few moments to compose the famous last words for the hero or villain that they draw. Place some paper and pencils on the table so they can write down the last words in case they need to. Then have everyone read aloud, in turn their famous last words. You can have the kids act out a scene with it too if you like. Everyone votes on the best last words to decide winners.

The next game is called ‘Reporter’. You or one of the kids has to pretend to be an American Hero that everyone recognizes. And everyone else at the party gets to ask them three questions during an open ‘interview’. Hand out plenty of paper and pencils so the ‘reporters’ can all take notes.

The first reporter to figure out who the American Hero is should call out their name. If it’s wrong the person playing the hero will shake their head no and that ‘reporter’ is out of the game. If it’s right the person should acknowledge it and give the reporter their prize. You can make the game a little nicer by not kicking the reporters who guess wrong out of the game, but just telling them they are wrong and they can’t ask anymore questions but can listen to other’s questions and keep trying to figure out who the hero is. You can also keep this game going by having each of the guests take turns being an American Hero.
