Kids party activity ideas?

Hi! Those who have had kids parties where you supplied the activities yourself, please share some of your activity ideas. I'm stumped what to do with about 20 kids ages 1 to 9 years old. We are renting a hall so I plan to have activities but I'm looking for some ideas of what to do with them. Tia!

Kids party activity ideas?

I made a craft table and had bubble wands. I had color books with crayons, make your own toy airplane, make own bracelets, i did a nodern twist to go with my theme of pin the tail on the donkey, bean bag toss and horseshoe toss. I also rented a mini bouncy house.

I also had a separate table and did decorate your own cupcake. I had plain vanilla and choc frosted cupcakes and put out sprinkles, candy, mini marshmellows, etc for decoration.

And i had a face painter come

Like the PP said... have a table of art activities. You can go to Michaels or AC Moore and get a ton of stuff. Plus, with that amount of kids they usually wind up all playing together and keep themselves busy.

cute! I would go to michaels and get some of those foam craft sets.... the ones that are like stickers and the kids can make door hangers for their bedrooms, or you could get a big bucket of those foam shapes and give them a paper heart and let them decorate it with the foam shapes.
make their own valentine cards- just a bunch of stickers and crayons and stuff.
decorating their own cupcakes would be cute and valentine-y.
maybe do a pin-the-heart on the bear type game?
maybe for something more active for the older kids... a relay race where they have to fill up a jar of those red hot candies (or other small valentine candies). so like at one side they have to fill up their cup with the red hots, then run down and pour it into a jar and then run back and see what team fills up the jar first.
