we did one in the summer for a 10 year old, with two dance mats that you plug in a play station and you can see you dancing on the telly. years ago for another 10 year old girl we did make overs and they loved it, Not sure about boys, whenever they come they trash the place! Selena

That is the person who has to leave the show...they get a small sweetie bag Carry on until you have the grand final Runner up gets a small prize and the winner wins a small goodie bag Elaine x

Party 6-8pm. Some top ideas there thanks guys, love the chocolate game, use to do this with me rainbows, think that will go down a storm. I got a twister too so that should be good. Honestly thanks. catherine xx

catherine i asked the boys in my house 1 is 10 thought all the ideas were good but couldnt think of anything else except a movie and popcorn - sorry

Dawn I love the chocolate game used to play it at guides.

Not sure it's any help, but my Godson was 10 last week, and his Mum bought a load of cheap white plates and things from IKEA, and they painted them at his party. Kept them quiet and busy for well over an hour, and the boys and girls liked it equally. Sharon xx

Chocolate fountain? That's what we did for daughter's 11th, and it went down a storm. Liz

How about buying mugs or tshirts and letting them decorate their own should amuse them for a while

Hi Catherine, Would think they'll probably be quite happy with the bonfire and karaoke! My eldest just gone 10 and prefered a piniatta to pass parcel. You can buy them in different shapes at Sainsbury's/wollies etc for about £10 and then fill them up with sweets/toys etc. Bit expensive so we made our own with good old papermacheand a balloon! They loved bashing it with stick til everything fell out! (Was a messy job to make but she enjoyed it) Choc game - big bar of choc on plate, knife, fork, hat, scarf & gloves. Take in turns to roll dice, if roll a 6 put on hat etc and try to eat choc only using knife and fork. As soon as someone else gets a 6 sawp etc til all gone - we play this at halloween parties and goes down a treat! Other halloweeny type games like apple bobbing if outside? Hope this helps. Dawn

Catherine how about a giant jenga - think you can hire them from somewhere - sorry not much help lol right ive googled and come up with a web site that hires out giant games - http://www(.)enterleisure(.)co(.)uk/page3(.)html you know what to do with the brackets

Twister???? - well I'd come if you were playing that !
