Best Birthday Party Games for Ages 9-12

The years of themed birthday parties may be starting to wind down when your child reaches 9-12 years old but that doesn’t mean the fun of playing games has to stop too.  Finding games for your pre-teen might be a little difficult; their favorite thing from last year is no longer favorited and what you once that was “cool” is definitely not “cool” anymore.  Kids within this age range enjoy engaging, laugh-out-loud, interactive, and fun games that allow everyone to play!  With experience of being one of those kids (once upon a time) I know what is “cool” to bring to your 9-12 year olds next birthday party.
