SpongeBob Cutouts
*SpongeBob Toss Relay: This outdoor game is lots of fun, especially when the sun is shining! To play, you'll need two containers of water and two identical bowls or buckets. Divide your guests into two teams and line up each team across a large playing area, spacing the kids far enough apart so that the sponge must be tossed from player to player. The container of water and empty bowl should be on opposite ends of the line. To begin, the player nearest the water container soaks the sponge and tosses it to the next player, and so on until it reaches the end of the line. The last player squeezes out as much water as possible into the empty container and passes the sponge back down the line. The goal is to transfer as much water as possible into the empty container within five minutes. When five minutes have passed, measure the containers to see which team collected more water!

*Sponge Games: It's amazing how many creative child games there are with just regular, plain old sponges. You can start with a sponge throw against a backstop - the winner is the one whose sponge bounced off the farthest. Next have the kids try and throw sponges into the cut out mouth of a large poster-size smiling SpongeBob. You can also put a pile of yellow kitchen sponges into a giant tub of water and let the kids have a water fight, using the sponges as the ammo.

*Sea Shell Treasure Hunt: Use a sandbox or fill a plastic swimming pool with sand. Add a bunch of different sea shells and cover them with sand. Let the kids search for the shells and take them home as party favors.

*Squidward's Octopus Tag: This game is a cross between Red Rover and tag. First you need to set up a rectangular "ocean" with boundaries. Let the birthday kid start the game as Squidward (SpongeBob's cranky octopus neighbor). The birthday kid stands in the middle of the ocean, while all the other kids (Fish) line up at one end of the room. The birthday kid starts the game by crying out, "I am the Octopus, king of all motion. Let's see if you can cross my ocean." All the Fish then try to run across the ocean while Squidward tries to tag them. If they are tagged, Fish become Seaweed and must stay in their place and reach out and tag the Fish running by, turning those players into Seaweed too. If some Fish do reach the other side, the Octopus and Seaweed say the chant and the crossing contest begins again. The game continues until all the Fish become Seaweed. The last Fish gets to be the new Squidward Octopus.

*Mr. Krab Walk: First show the kids how you get into the Krab walk position - hands and feet are on the floor (arms stretched down behind their feet) with head and torso facing up (kids also love doing the Mr. Krab walk backwards crazy crawl). Then place pineapples on either end of a space (living room, backyard, etc.) you'll be using for the race. Divide the group into two teams and have the teams stand on either side of one of the pineapples. Have the first player from each team do the Krab walk from one pineapple to the other, and then back again. Once the first player has returned to the team, the next player goes out doing the Krab walk. Continue the relays until all players have a chance to do the Krab walk. The team that finishes first wins!

*Draw SpongeBob: This is one of those child games that's sure to get much laughter out of all the kids. You'll need white paper plates, pencils and pictures of SpongeBob and his friends. Get the kids to sit in a circle and hand out a paper plate and pencil to each. Tell the kids to put the plates on top of their heads. Now, show a picture of SpongeBob and tell the kids to draw him (while the plates are still on their heads). Have everyone show their works of art and repeat this with the other characters.

*Bubble Fun: SpongeBob's specialty is blowing bubbles of course! So give each guest a container of bubble solution with wand and let them have fun blowing bubbles. You can award a prize for the biggest bubble, most bubbles, most effort, etc. so that every guest gets recognition!
