The minions are hiding, are hiding, are hiding. The minions are hiding. Where could they be? Peek-a-boo! I see you!
Peek-a-boo! I see you!
NB: If there are only a few children and there is plenty of time, the children can go underneath individually (rather than in groups) so as to be a minion by themselves.
10. CHASING GAME: ‘Catch the Minions!’ (sung to the traditional tune of ‘Tiny Tim’)
Put on your posh teacher voice. “And now I’m going to teach you how to become a real minion, just like me! I am the teacher and you are my students. Follow me.” Sing the song acapella and perform the actions as indicated by the lyrics.
“To be like a real minion, you must know how to build clever machines.”
The minions are building, the minions are building, the minions are building, in the minions class.
“Everyone knows that minions love to eat apples and bananas!”
The minions are eating, the minions are eating, the minions are eating, in the minions class.
“And of course, to be like a real minion you must be very good at dancing!”
The minions are dancing...
“Now I’m going to be Gru and chase you and see how many minions I can catch!” Chase the children as you sing the final verse.
Gru is chasing...
Ask the birthday boy/girl if they would like to be Gru next. If they say no, choose someone with their hand up who managed to escape you. Remind the next Gru that when you sing “Gru is chasing” they must catch as many minions as possible. Repeat and then choose a child who “managed to escape” to be the next Gru (otherwise they’ll all just be caught on purpose). Repeat as many times as necessary (for example if there is no pass the parcel and/or not many children you may get through the activities quickly and so extend this one, or if you are running behind you could perform the activity just two or three times).
11. PASS THE PARCEL: ‘Papa Mama Loca Pipa’ performed by The Minions (if requested) Make it clear to the children before you play the game that “everybody gets a turn.” Play the track and the children pass the parcel around in a circle. When you pause the music, the child holding the parcel opens a layer and keeps the gift inside. Use a remote control to pause the music so you can help the younger children pass the parcel and open it when it is their turn. The children can eat their treat, put it in their pocket or give it to an adult to mind so that it does not distract them from the rest of the party.
NB: Make sure to check the party entertainer guidelines for instructions on making the parcel and for maximum spending amounts.
12. ACTION GAME: ‘Minions’
Minions = sing “Y. M. C. A.” (the famous line from the well known song) in Minionese (gibberish) as you do the well known actions. Try to act as silly as you can!
Gru = make a large circle (light bulb) by rounding arms and joining fingers above head as you say “light bulb” in an Eastern European accent
A baddie’s coming = find a friend or two to hug and scream “ahh”
Lucy = pretend to shoot a lipstick taser as you make a buzzing sound then say
“lipstick taser” in a silly voice (as Lucy does in the second film) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cFsxgPe1eA
