Here are a couple of Cat in the Hat party games that can make any themed party fun and they are just as interesting as the Cat in the Hat.
The first game is called ‘Alibi’. In this game you choose two players to play the children who were left alone at home on that rainy day when the cat in the hat came. Their mother has come back home and the kids have to concoct a watertight alibi to explain what they were doing while she was gone.
Have the two players leave the room for ten minutes so they can get their stories straight and then call one of them back into the room and question the player about what happened. Then call out the other player and question that person about what happened when the cat in the hat was at the house. The point is to try and make the second player say something that doesn’t match what the other player says happened. If you can’t after five minutes of questioning both earn a point and you pick another two players to concoct their alibi’s. Anyone who manages to make it through the game with points wins and gets a treat.
The second game is called ‘Sardines’. This is a fun sort of hide-and-seek game for the kids. Pick someone to play the cat in the hat. You can give him/her a funny hat to go with the part if you like. Then have everyone else group up in pairs. Pick one pair to run off and hide while the rest of the players close their eyes and count to thirty. Then have the cat in the hat count an additional thirty while the rest of the paired players run off to look for the hidden pair of kids. The pairs that find the hidden kids must squeeze themselves into the hiding place with them.
So after a while you can imagine that the hiding space gets a bit crowded, but the paired groups aren’t allowed to hide anywhere except with the first hidden pair if they can find them. Meanwhile the Cat in the Hat will be set on the loose after he or she finishes counting and everyone must try to avoid him/her. Any pair tagged by the cat is out and the game ends when the cat finds everyone’s hiding place.
