Toucan Party Activities and Games
No party is complete without some fun games and activities! Marilyn came up with some great ideas that kept the little ones entertained and added to the tropical theme:
- Catch a Toucan – A simple ring toss with toucan sayings on each cone.
- Toss a Toucan – Kids gathered to toss a stuffed toucan on a giant parachute
- Color a Toucan – A coloring table prepped with plenty of crayons and toucan coloring pages.
- Bounce houses – The perfect gross motor activity to help the kids use up all their energy
The fun didn’t stop there. For party favors, the kids got to take home a small toucan pop it and/or small toucan that flies like an airplane.
