Pinch A Parcel
Before the game:
To join in with Pinch A Parcel, please bring at least one wrapped pony (or pony themed) gift with you, which is worth AT LEAST £5.
Rules of the game:
- Everyone joining in will sit in a circle around the room, with the gifts piled up in the middle.
- When the time starts, dice will be passed around the circle. When it gets to you, roll it. If you get a 1 or a 6, you can run and grab one parcel from the middle!
- This will continue until all the parcels from the middle are gone.
- When this happens, everyone will continue rolling dice, but now if you get a 1 or a 6, you can pinch a parcel (get it?!) from somebody else!
- When the time runs out, NO MORE PINCHING IS ALLOWED. The parcels you have managed to pilfer are now yours!
- UNWRAP EVERYTHING, IT’S PONY CHRISTMAS!
Note:
- The aim of the game is to pinch as many parcels as possible, so be as ruthless as you like. Please, though, don’t trip or hurt other people as you do so! It would be very unsporting.
- When playing, we ask you please don't hide or conceal any parcels you pinch during the game. (Where's the fun if you do that?)
- Most of all, have fun!
Speed Art
Do you love to draw? Is putting pen (or pencil!) to paper your thing? Create us something beautiful!
The rules
The host will tell you when the hour begins.
In this hour, you need to produce a finished piece of artwork.
You can bring your own supplies if you like - but you must start with a blank canvas!
We will provide paper and coloured/lead pencils.
At the end of the hour, our judges will vote for their favourite piece and the maker will win a prize!
This game is suitable for all ages.
What do I need to bring?
You don't have to bring anything, but if you want to, you can bring some blank paper and your pens/pencils to work with.
We don't mind if you use a reference picture or draw a pony in front of you.
Any tips?
Sometimes the simplest designs, executed well, are the most effective!
Plan your artwork in advance so you know what you're doing in that hour.
You don't have to use the full hour if you don't need to, but make the most of your time.
Speed Customising
Have you ever given a pony a whole new look? Love customising? Well this game is for you! We challenge you to make a custom from scratch in 1 hour.
The rules
The host will tell you when the hour begins.
In this hour, you need to produce a finished custom including hair, eyes and symbols.
Your bait can start the right colour (be it "natural" or painted) and even be prepped but no hair, symbol or eyes can be pre-prepared.
At the end of the hour, our judges will vote for their favourite custom and the maker will win a prize!
This game is only suitable for ages 12 and over.
What do I need to bring?
You'll need a bait which can be prepped in advance. You may use a pony with the correct body colour or paint it before the convention if you wish.
Customising supplies including paint, hair, paint brushes, glitter, rhinestones - anything you want to use on your custom.
Any tips?
Sometimes the simplest designs, executed well, are the most effective!
Don't think that you need to do a rehair - if you can finish your pony off another way then great, but no using the existing mane and tail.
Plan your custom in advance so you know what you're doing in that hour.
You don't have to use the full hour if you don't need to, but make the most of your time.
If possible start with a pony in the right colour to avoid damaging a full body repaint.
