| Pleasing Party Games | Wink At
Have your group sit in a circle. With a pack of cards, have each player take a card until everyone has one: if there are seven players, take seven cards from the deck then pass those around.
Check one of the cards is an ace of spades. The player who receives that ace secretly winks at the other players.
If you’re winked at, you say, "I'm dead" and throw your card in the middle. The aim is to guess who has the ace of spades. If you consider you know, state that you want to guess. If you are wrong, you forfeit and die - if you are right, you win.
Around the Table Ping Pong
For this game you need a ping pong table, two paddles, one ball, and from 5-15 people. Every person is spread out around the table, and the two people on either end have the paddles.
Thus one person serves, drops the paddle on the table and moves in a clockwise direction around the table. The one on his left moves in and picks up the paddle to return the ball.
Everyone gets the chance to hit the ball, and really has to move fast! Everyone can do two misses and then they are out.
When two people remain, they must hit the ball, place the paddle down, turn around, pick up the paddle, and return the ball, until one of them misses and is out.
King Elephant
This is a game of memory and laughter! Here is how it works:
Players sit in a circle and everyone decides what animal they will be and what hand signal they will use to reflect that animal. For illustration: someone may be a worm and wiggle their finger or be a duck and bend their arms and "flap them" like wings.
One player is King Elephant and their signal is holding their arm out in front of their face like an elephant trunk. The "head" of the circle is King Elephant and there should be an empty chair or empty space between him/her and the next player, who is the back of the circle.
Once play begins King Elephant starts. He makes his/her signal and then another player's animal signal. That person then has to make their signal and another player's animal signal.
Game continues uninterrupted until someone goofs! The one who goofs goes to the back of the play circle and all other players move up.
The aim of each player is to become King Elephant. It can happen when King Elephant makes a mistake and has to go to the end of the line. Then King Elephant has to become whatever animal the new King Elephant was and use this new signal.
