Cars Games and Activities:

Make Your Own Driver's License: This involves a little bit of organisation - but well worth it! Before the party ask the parents of the children for a small photo of the child. Create a fake drivers license for each child. Laminate and attach them to a lanyard (cord around the neck).

Make Your Own License Plate: Fun & easy craft activity for all ages! Give each guest a piece of craft paper pre-cut into the shape of a license plate. Set out a number of items to decorate them with. Sticker numbers and letters (mailbox numbers work too), pipe cleaners (these bend nicely into numbers), stickers, craft jewels, foam cutout shapes, whatever you can think of. Kids will turn their license plates into glorious works of art! A prize for the funniest plate!

Drive the Obstacle Course: Kids love obstacle courses! If your course doesn't involve any crawling, cut out steering wheels from cardboard and let them 'drive' their way through the course! Use your imagination to set up a Cars theme obstacle course. Let them practice their moves, and see how they handle the course! Use construction cones, send them around trees, through tunnels, etc.

Red Light, Green Light: One person is chosen to be the Race Official. They stand at one end of the room or garden facing the wall or fence. All the other players are racers and line up at the other end of the garden. When the Race Official says "Green Light" all the racers need to start moving (not run unless you use a field) towards the Race Official. At any time the Race Official can say "Red Light" and turn around. If he catches anyone moving they are out. Play resumes when the Race Official turns back to the wall and says "Green Light". The Race Official wins if all the racers are out before anyone touches him/her. If one of the racers touches the Race Official before being caught then that person wins.

Tyre Beanbag Toss: Give the children a few beanbags each. Get them to throw the beanbags through a suspended tyre. First one to get 10 beanbags through the tyre is the winner!

Winner in last place: Get all the children to sit in a circle. Pass a small toy race car around the circle to the music. When the music stops whoever is holding the car is out. The person left at the end is the winner.
