ISLAND ENTERTAINMENT
Hula Hoopla Hawaiian partygoers will get a laugh out of giving this contest a whirl. Hand two of the kids hula hoops and see who can hula the longest. Then pose the challenge to two other kids. Once everyone has had a chance, have the winners of the first round face off against each other, and so on, until one kid is the victor. He or she wins a hula hoop!Aloha Volley Played with a beach ball (or even a balloon), this game puts a tropical twist on classic volleyball. Set up a net (or you can string a piece of clothesline between two stationary objects). Ask each team to come up with a fun name like the Invincible Islanders or the Volley-canoes. Explain that the object is to hit the ball back and forth according to standard volleyball rules. But instead of scoring points, teams are awarded letters to spell A-L-O-H-A. The first team to complete the word wins!
HAWAIIAN PARTY POINTERS
•Make your place look like a tropical paradise by decorating it with exotic paper or silk flowers, colored holiday lights, and paper lanterns.• Set up a beach umbrella to create a shady spot where kids can get out of the sun. And have plenty of sunscreen on hand.
• Hawaiian Party Favors: Send guests home from this party in paradise with tropical trail mix (just add dried pineapple chunks and macadamia nuts to your favorite mix), shells, beach balls, or sunglasses.
