Jungle Party Games

jungle party games

Looking for some ideas for jungle party games for your kids pool party? Here are some great ways to keep your kids entertained.

Provide each of the guests with Foam Jungle Animal Visors when they first arrive.

Let the kids pick out their favorite jungle animal. Use them not only for the kids to wear but for some of the games as well.

Jungle Birthday Party Parade

Paint paper plates bright yellow and with some help from a craft kit from Oriental Trading, make lion, giraffe, or zebra faces.

Staple the two yellow plates together. Paint the dowel yellow and add some orange and yellow streamers.

Our granddaughters always like to start the pool party with a parade to music. We choose "I Can't Wait to be King," from the Lion King Disney movie.

Each guest is provided with their own jungle animal and parades around the pool to your favorite jungle song. Encourage the kids to act like monkeys or prowl like a lion.

Jungle Party Games - Lion Leap into the Pool

Line the kids up at the diving board or the side of the pool. Instruct them to make the biggest leap they can into the pool while roaring like a lion.

After each guest makes a lion's leap into the pool, instruct them to find their own wild animal beach ball with their name written on it.

Let the kids just have some free time tossing the balls in the pool. Use these inexpensive beach balls as take home gifts for the guests. We purchased these Jungle Animal Beach Balls as a set of twelve. Use them as take home party favors as well.

Snake Hunt

Hide these inexpensive wiggly snakes in and around the plants and bushes in your yard or around your pool. Make sure you have enough snakes for each guest. Let the party guest keep his snake as a take home gift.

Monkey Tattoos

Set up a station with a bowl of water, a wash cloth and monkey tattoos. We did this while we waited for all of the guests to arrive.

Let the kids pick out their favorite color. The tattoos come in a pack of 72 so we let them put on as many as they wanted.

The tattoos stayed on well in and out of the water.

Snake Swamp

I found these colorful floating snakes at Target. The kids (well, the boys) really loved them. Place a harmless looking wind-up duck in the pool and surround it with snakes.

Each guest gets a turn to rescue the duck - but without touching any of the surrounding snakes.

Hippo Race

Divide the guests into two teams. Provide one hippo split ring for each team. Each guest takes a turn swimming across the pool and back and gives the float to the next team member.

The team that finishes first wins.

Monkey Chase

Have each of the kids line up at the shallow end of the pool. Let them know that they are monkeys trying to safely cross the jungle river to make it past the lion.

Assign an adult to be The Lion and have him/her wear this lion visor.

When The Lion touches or tags a monkey he/she becomes frozen. Another monkey can come and rescue them by tagging them and unfreezing them.

The game ends when each monkey makes it to the other side.

Feed the Lion

lion king games I purchased this lion clothes hamper at Target for $6. We used it for pool party games and to hold smaller pool toys.

The hungry lion is held by an adult in the pool while the kids take turns feeding it by seeing how many fish they can toss into the lion's mouth.

Animal Charades

Get a set of store bought or make homemade cards with pictures of wild animals - like a monkey, elephant, lion, etc.

One at a time have the child pick out a card. The child acts out the animal that's on their card while the rest of the guests guess the animal.
