A happy holiday for a child is a real challenge for parents. Going out to the movies or having a quality time at the ice cream store — these are the most popular options for an entertaining child’s party. Shame but true. On the other hand, any of those options can make your kid lucky. Unless you have something really special. Something like a grown-up karaoke party!
A home karaoke event can be an endless source of ideas for a kid’s birthday party or a classmate get-together. Use your imagination; grab a microphone, and become the best child’s event host ever.
Here we give you 7 well-played karaoke games children will definitely like to play again the first chance they get.
Guess the tune
A simple and joyful game for a big party. First, you’ll need to choose a member who will be a performer. The rest will divide into teams. A team may contain just one player.
Participants sit with their backs to the screen so as not to see subtitles. The performer chooses a song in a karaoke catalog and performs it. For the teams, the main goal is to name the song’s title before others.
Rewrite the lyrics
Once again, the participants form teams. The host gives a random song to each team. The goal is to alter the words of the song within an allotted time limit and perform it. The winner is a team that comes up with the most original performance.
Musical chairs
A traditional and well-known karaoke game. In the center of the room, chairs get arranged in a circle. Participants, the number of which is one more than the number of chairs, run around the chairs while singing a song everyone knows.
Unlike the most common version of the game, when you have to sit on a chair, when the melody stops abruptly, in the “karaoke” chairs version the singer skips a random word. The most inattentive participant is out and one chair gets removed. The game continues until there is only one player left.
A true star
For this contest, you will need to make (or rent) costumes of famous pop singers. Make sure you have two of every costume. During the contest, two participants dress up and perform the same star hit, one at a time.
The audience determines which of the participants is more convincing, and awards them victory. Besides, you can do without changing clothes or choose things that could correspond to the image of each star. Improvise!
Broken karaoke microphone
Players get divided into teams and try to confuse each other by twisting lines from songs. The goal is to guess the song title in 30 seconds and sing it. The team that guesses more songs wins.
Karaoke roulette
Write down the names of all children in a room, on pieces of paper and mix them in a hat or pocket. Blindly choose a paper with the name on it and name a random song number in the karaoke catalog. The one whose name remains the last in the hat wins.
Blind X factor
Ask a few players to sit on chairs with their backs to the screen. You can even blindfold them. The guys will be the jury of the contest. The rest take the microphone, one at a time, and sing small song fragments. It would be nice if the performers could change their voices.
The jury must guess the performers’ names. The one who remains a “wild card” wins. If the jury guesses all the performers, it wins.
Once again, we remind you that karaoke is not only an excellent entertainment but also a perfect gift.
