Pitch Burst
Many of us have seen a carnival with a dunk tank. You pitch a ball at a target and hope to hit it so that the person in the booth falls into the water below. Pitch Burst is a new alternative to the old dunk tank from WhirlWhims. In this game a person sits under a basket that holds an 11 to 12 inch balloon. When the pitcher hits the target on the booth, the balloon bursts onto the person's head. This eliminates any size or weight restrictions that traditional dunking booths impose. In addition, you can get creative with the contents of the balloons. You can fill them with confetti, slime, pudding or even flour. For an adult party you might fill the balloon with beer, or another beverage, and have a person sit under the balloon with funnel in his mouth to catch it.
BoulderDash
This is an exciting game for two by Fun-Makers. BoulderDash is an inflatable obstacle course for anyone over 48 inches in height to enjoy. Opponents race each other over a series of raised foam platforms, trying to keep their balance as they go. To add to the challenge onlookers throw six foam boulders that swing from the roof of the obstacle course toward the runner. Trying to keep an eye on your feet while dodging the boulders proves to be a fun challenge. Boulder Dash is made for both indoor and outdoor play and is fun for all ages. It is a great alternative to traditional inflatable games such as the moonwalk.
Cow Milking Game
Another great idea for a carnival is Celebration Authority's Cow Milking Game. This game is perfect for farm or harvest themed carnivals and it adds a touch of the authentic farm life experience. Practice your milking skills with this interactive game and try and fill up your bucket before your opponent. This is a great game for any sized gathering and for all ages.
