The best part about these games is that they are easy, inexpensive, and really fun. They are guaranteed to add a special touch to any hockey themed party.
My son really wanted to play floor hockey with his friends, so I used a cardboard tri-fold make an easy and inexpensive scoreboard. I even used some chalkboard stickers so that they could change the periods and scores with chalk. The kids had a lot of fun with it.
I also made a "prize punch" using foam core and plastic cups from the dollar store. The kids were able to choose a cup containing hockey cards, and then they were able to trade them with each other. You can find the full tutorial for the DIY prize punch here.
Finally, I used a piece of bristol board to make a hockey version of "pin the tail on the donkey". Our game was called "pin the puck on the ice". I drew a rink on a piece of bristol board and added a team sticker to centre ice. Then, I made some black circle "pucks" from a piece of construction paper.
I believe that DIY elements make a party special, and these DIY hockey party games are easy and inexpensive to put together. Of course, these games are great for a child's birthday, but they would also be fun at a year end team party, don't you think?
