Pass the parcel is
a fun game to play when having an afternoon tea-party,
evening dinner get-together with family, children's birthday party, on any
occasion such as New Years, outdoors at a weekend picnic, or a casual meetup
with friends and family. Adding
forfeits is a great idea to make it challenging and interesting for
people of all ages.
How to play Pass The Parcel?
Option #1:
- Write each pass the parcel forfeit on a separate slip of paper, fold it well and put all the slips in a bowl or small bag.
- Sitting in a circle, with the music on, pass any small item (ball, balloon, cushion, box) to the person on your right or left hand side, and it goes on that way until the music stops.
- The person holding the item when the music has instantly stopped has to pick a random slip of paper and perform whatever challenge is written on the it, and then the person is out of the game.
- The music restarts and this goes on until 1 last person, the winner, remains.
Option # 2:
Note: A grown-up who can operate the music system and is not playing Pass The Parcel is designated to start and stop the music at his/her own wish WITHOUT facing the players to maintain a fair game.
- Pack some small gifts depending on the number of players, and place a slip of paper with each gift. Then wrap another layer of gift (you may use newspaper to wrap; less expensive) with another slip, until you finally pack the whole 'parcel'.
- When the music starts, you pass the parcel as usual, and when the music stops, the person with the parcel removes one layer of the parcel, performs the dare on the slip, keeps the gift, and goes out of the game. The music starts again, and the game continues.
- You may choose not to place a gift for some layers, so not everyone might get one, but the forfeit slip still remains in each layer, until the last person remaining wins the last gift.
