toy story theme party game ideas for 3 year olds?

Sam

We are having a toy story themed party for our three year old son and I was wondering if anyone had any ideas for games revolving around the theme. So far I have thought of "pin-the-badge on Sheriff Woody", "lassou toss(ring toss), and water balloon fight(although off-theme). Any ideas would be helpful, thanks!

Answer
Before I read the description, I thought "Pin the Tail on Rex". Sheriff Woody works too. If you can't find an actual pre-made version, pick a coloring-page picture from Toy Story online and blow it up to a poster size. Then cut off the tail and use it as a tracer to make however many more tails you need and then color it all with markers and use double-sided tape to stick them on. Pin the Eye on the Alien would be easy too. Paint an alien with two eyes and have them try to place the 3rd in between. Or Stick the Utility Belt on Buzz.

Make rattlesnakes. You could use paper towel tubes or pop bottles or whatever. Use dry beans for the insides. Cover the outsides with construction paper that they can decorate and make heads ahead of time. Cover the openings with tape. I just made this up. You can be more creative than this and elaborate.

Play Marco-Polo with your rattlesnakes. Instead of Marco, the person blindfolded would shout "Howdy!" and everyone else has to shake their rattlesnakes. To be safer, have verbal tagging only. So whoever is "it", has to guess where the closest person is.

Make stamps out of potatoes and have them make a picture with the paint. To make a potato stamp, you cut a potato in half, make an outline of your design with a pen, and then cut the rest out with a sharp knife.

Make "galaxy water bottles". A water bottle filled with 1/2 oil, 1/2 water, blue food coloring, glitter, confetti, etc and glued shut.

Have them search for moon rocks (glass plant rocks) in a sandbox.

Space station - Outside play house or a bouncy castle if you can afford it (and have the room)

Play games with balls and rename them. "Pass the planet" or "Alien Toss" can be the usual "Hot Potato" for example. You could also play this with a sponge full of water.

Trampolines (Moon Walk)

Race battery operated jeeps

Create a mini obstacle course with any of the things from this list or things you make up yourself.

Rocket Launch Pad (Swing Set)

Galaxy Swim (Swimming Pool filled with silver confetti stars)

Frisbees (Flying Saucers)

Call your water balloon fight a "Meteor Shower"

Planet Pop - Race to pop as many balloons as you possibly can by sitting on them. Whoever has the most balloon tabs wins.

Create their own Mr. Potato Heads (either with foam or paper - pre-make all the body parts so they just pick which ones they want and glue)

Pass the Space Rock - Get a Toy Story toy and wrap it up in tin foil. Pass the rock around the circle until the music stops. Whoever has it in their hands at that moment gets to unfold one layer of tin foil. The person to unwrap the last layer wins a prize.

Build Their Own Universe - Get Plastic Tubes with lids and have the kids filled them with water, blue food coloring, glitter and planet shaped confetti, and a few drops of baby oil. When you shake them, the planets swirl.

Lay out a big sheet of bubble wrap (Home Depot) and have the kids "walk across the moon"
