Ideas for Your Party
In a color game, someone calls out a color and everyone quickly touches something that matches. Hold a streamer blowing contest to see who can unroll one the farthest with a single breath. Play freeze dance, where everyone freezes the moment the music stops. Then sort paper confetti into circles, stars, and triangles.
Fun Facts About Confetti
The word confetti comes from Italian and first meant little sweets like sugar-coated almonds. People used to toss these into the crowd during carnival in Italy. Later, the sweets were replaced with small paper bits because they were cheaper and softer. Paper streamers have been part of carnival parties for a long time too. An eco tip: paper confetti is better than plastic because it breaks down more easily.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
