1. Mermaid Races
Grab some sparkly tails or use pillowcases for a DIY version and get kids to “flop” across a finish line like mermaids! This silly race is sure to cause giggles. To make it extra special, set it up near a blue sheet or splash mat for that ocean-floor feel.
2. Treasure Hunt in the Sand
Fill a kiddie pool or a large plastic bin with play sand and hide treasures like faux coins, plastic sea animals, or sparkly gems. Give kids mini shovels or scoops and let them dig for treasure. Turn it into a competition by seeing who can find the most treasures in a set time!
3. Ocean Animal Ring Toss
Paint or decorate bottles to look like ocean creatures (think octopuses, dolphins, or jellyfish), and use glow-in-the-dark rings or nautical rope rings to toss. Kids will love the challenge, and you’ll love how easy it is to set up.
4. Jellyfish Parachute Game
Use a colorful parachute (or a large blue sheet) and attach streamers to the edge to look like jellyfish tentacles. Kids can work together to bounce a beach ball on top of the parachute — calling it their “jellyfish bubble.” It’s great for cooperative play and loads of fun.

5. Coral Reef Craft Station
Set up a creative corner with paper plates, tissue paper, pipe cleaners, and glitter glue where kids can design their own coral reef scene. Include stickers of sea creatures or googly eyes for extra fun. This doubles as a calming activity and a cute take-home souvenir.
6. Pin the Fin on the Shark
A fun twist on the classic “pin the tail” game! Blindfolded guests try to pin a fin on a large poster of a shark. Use Velcro or tape to make it easy and safe. You could also try “pin the pearl in the oyster” or “crown the mermaid” variations.
7. Bubble Blaster Zone
Set up a bubble machine or give kids bubble wands and let them run through a sea of shimmering bubbles. Bonus points for playing ocean sounds in the background — they’ll feel like they’re actually under the sea!
8. Sea Creature Freeze Dance
Play beachy tunes or tropical music and get the kids dancing like dolphins, swimming like fish, or waving their arms like seaweed. When the music stops, everyone has to “freeze.” Add glowing sea creature cutouts or underwater lighting for extra atmosphere.
