Water balloon games ... doesn't the sound of the word alone make you feel the slightly mischievous joy of bursting those colourful little water bombs? 

My kid loves to splash around in the pool. What can I do to make his/her birthday party special?

If this is the question that’s been on your mind ever since you decided to plan your son’s or daughter's next birthday party, you surely have come to the right place! We are more than willing to help you with some of the best ideas to entertain your kids in just the right way.

Water balloon games act like the icing on the cake. With the multicoloured, dazzling and sparkling balloons, filled with water, there’s nothing that the kids won’t love. We all know how much kids enjoy splashing in water and if given an opportunity to do it with friends at a party, what else could they ask for?

If you are wondering exactly which game to select, we can help you with a few suggestions. Water balloon games are many in number but some like “Water Balloon Volleyball”, “Passing the Water Balloon Around” and “Water Balloon Drip” remain all time favorites. Read on to know all about these games and how to organize them.

For Water Balloon Volleyball, all you need to do is fill a medium to large sized balloon with water and then use it as the ball in a game of volleyball. The squiggly nature of the 'ball' will make the kids roll in laughter and every time the balloon crashes on the floor or in someone’s face, the water will naturally splash out.

Keep a lot of these balloons ready so that every time a point is scored, you don't need to run around in search of a new water bomb.

Substitute the parcel in the Passing The Parcel game with a nice water balloon. And every time the music stops, the balloon is burst on the person who ends up with it. The game is indeed as much fun as it sounds!

The Water Balloon Drip game is on similar lines. Only here, the water balloon has a small whole in it and gets transformed into a "time bomb". The round continues as long as the water in the balloon lasts.

If you are smiling at the idea of how much fun these splashy games will be, you defintely need to try them out. And don't make the mistake to limit them to kiddy birthday parties only. Grown ups can enjoy them too. Just start playing and become a child all over again!
