Once the invitations are sent and the decorations are planned, the big question every parent asks is:
“But what will the kids actually do at the party?”
For a Kpop Demon Hunters birthday, the magic is all about movement, music, and a little bit of “demon hunter” adventure. The good news: you don’t need complicated props or expensive equipment to keep kids engaged. With a bit of structure and some themed twists, you can turn simple games into unforgettable memories.
This guide shares 10 Kpop Demon Hunters–inspired games and activities that work beautifully for kids ages 6–12, with low prep and high fun.
Before You Start: Set the Tone with Themed Invitations
Great activities feel even more special when the party feels “official” from the start. That begins with your invitation.
Use a Kpop Demon Hunters–themed digital invitation that shows off the colors, characters, and vibe of the movie so kids arrive already excited for the games.
You can also include a line on the invitation that hints at the fun:
“Get ready for K-pop dancing, demon-hunter training, and a night of music and magic!”
Game 1: Huntrix Freeze Dance
This is a classic that fits the theme perfectly.
How to Play:
- Create a playlist with Kpop Demon Hunters songs and kid-friendly K-pop tracks.
- Kids dance while the music plays.
- When the music stops, they must freeze in a dramatic “idol pose” or “battle pose.”
- Anyone who moves sits out for one round or does a fun mini-challenge (like a silly dance).
Why it works:
Simple rules, high energy, and perfect for mixed ages. Great as an opener or to reset energy after cake.
Game 2: Demon Dodge & Dash
A high-energy game that feels like being inside an action scene.
You’ll Need:
- Soft foam balls or rolled-up socks
- A defined play area
How to Play:
- Choose 2–3 “demons” who hold the soft balls.
- The rest are “Huntrix trainees” who must run from one side of the room to the other without getting tagged by a light throw to the legs.
- If tagged, they become demons in the next round.
- Rotate roles so everyone gets a turn.
Safety Tip:
Keep throws below the waist and use only very soft items.
Game 3: Pin the Sword on the Demon
A themed twist on “Pin the Tail on the Donkey.”
You’ll Need:
- A large printed or hand-drawn demon silhouette on poster board
- Paper “swords” with double-sided tape
- Blindfold
How to Play:
- Write each child’s name on a sword.
- Blindfold one child, spin gently, then guide them toward the poster.
- They try to stick the sword in the target area.
- Closest wins a small prize.
This makes a great photo moment too.
Game 4: Kpop Idol Runway & Pose-Off
Let kids live their idol dreams.
How to Play:
- Create a “runway” with a taped line on the floor.
- Play a Kpop Demon Hunters track.
- One by one or in pairs, kids walk or dance down the runway and strike a pose at the end.
- You (or all guests) cheer and “vote” with applause.
To make it extra fun, provide simple props:
- Toy microphones
- Sunglasses
- Headbands
- Glow sticks
Game 5: Demon Hunter Training Obstacle Course
Turn your living room or backyard into a training ground.
Obstacle Ideas:
- “Laser Maze”: Red yarn or streamers kids must go under/over without touching.
- “Balance Bridge”: Tape line on the floor to walk across.
- “Agility Cones”: Weave through cones or chairs.
- “Target Strike”: Toss soft balls at a demon target.
Time each child or let them go in teams. At the end, present a simple “Certified Demon Hunter” certificate or sticker.
Game 6: Guess the K-pop Move
A fun mix of charades and dance.
How to Play:
- Write simple dance moves on slips of paper (e.g., “heart hands,” “spin,” “jump,” “mic drop,” “body wave”).
- Kids draw a paper and silently perform the move.
- Others guess what move it is.
- Add K-pop tracks in the background to keep the mood up.
This works well as a low-pressure game after high-energy rounds.
Game 7: Design Your Own Light Stick
K-pop and light sticks go together perfectly.
You’ll Need:
- Paper towel tubes or glow sticks
- Stickers, markers, washi tape, gems
- Optional: print small Kpop Demon Hunters symbols to glue on
How to Run It:
- Set up a craft table as a “Light Stick Workshop.”
- Kids decorate their own “Huntrix light stick.”
- Use them later during singing or runway games.
This doubles as both an activity and a party favor.
Game 8: Finish the Lyrics (Kid-Friendly Version)
Best if the group already loves the songs.
How to Play:
- Play a few seconds of a recognizable Kpop Demon Hunters or K-pop song.
- Pause it at a fun moment.
- Kids try to sing or shout the next line.
- Keep it relaxed and funny, not competitive.
For younger groups, you can simplify by just having them dance when the music resumes.
Game 9: Demon Punch Box
A big “wow” moment that kids love.
You’ll Need:
- A cardboard board or foam board
- Several cups or small boxes attached to the back, with front openings covered by tissue paper
- Prizes inside (stickers, candy, small toys)
- The front decorated as “demons” or “spirit portals”
How to Play:
- Each child gets a turn to punch through one tissue circle.
- They keep the prize inside.
You can call it “Defeat the Demon” or “Break the Spirit Portal.”
Game 10: Kpop Karaoke Corner
Perfect closer when energy shifts lower or for smaller groups.
Setup:
- A laptop, TV, or tablet with YouTube karaoke tracks
- Toy or real microphone
- A simple “stage” area
Let kids choose:
- Kpop Demon Hunters songs
- Other favorite kids’ songs
- Group numbers or solos
Give out fun “awards” like:
- Best Stage Presence
- Most Dramatic Performance
- Best Group Performance
