Hi, and welcome to my site, MyPartyGames.com!
I am Mary (Maryam), an illustrator by profession, also a mom and a wife, and the owner and creator of this website, as I just love making free printables.
My Creative Journey
I hold a Master’s Degree in Fine Arts, called MFA, with a painting major, but I soon learned to use digital and computer graphics such as Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Flash, Dreamweaver, and Photoshop. I excelled so much that back in 200, I worked with companies like birthdayalarm.com as a professional 2D animator. One of my animations was featured on Sports Illustrated and was also linked on CNN.com back then. I illustrated a book for the brand name SandKidz that won the 2009 Creative Child Magazine award.
My Printable Journey
I created my first free printables website in 2006. I couldn’t keep it for long, and then I created printthistoday.com in 2010. My passion for free printables continued. I made www.mypartygames.com in 2016, and it is only going stronger with time.
Featured In
The games from MyPartyGames.com have been linked by leading lifestyle websites, including: Housebeautiful.com, liveabout.com, countryliving.com,
and many more…
What You’ll Find Here?
On this site, I share free printable party games for every occasion—from birthdays and baby showers to holidays and family game nights. If you have creative ideas for new games, I’d love to hear them and may turn them into printables for everyone to enjoy!
Our games feature unique thematic artwork, some free-for-commercial-use textures and a handful of public domain images, all properly credited with links in their respective posts. These games are intended for personal use only, so please follow the terms of use when printing and playing.
My Family’s Input
My daughter Haleema sometimes also helps me with the content and the graphics. My husband, who is a Purdue Graduate and an Electrical Engineer by profession, also helps me, but he is not good at art. We frequently play our games at family game nights and get-togethers.
Why I Love Making Games?
I love making games and also playing games at every party I host. I invented my first game when I was only 8 years old, and all my cousins were getting bored. I mixed some big golden shower seeds in a bowl full of rice and asked everyone to take a handful of this mixture and then count the seeds. I told them the person who gets the biggest number of seeds wins, and that game was a hit. We kept playing that game for hours and enjoyed it. When I grew up and started making graphics, I knew that sharing the games I make was the way forward.
I make a new printable game almost every day, so it will be good for you to keep visiting my website.

I’m reaching out to share a game called See One! I have put the game in the public domain to make it freely available:
Picture this: you’re on the move. It’s quiet… almost too quiet. Then you spot your secret object, a red car, and call out, “See one!” Instantly, the group comes alive. Heads whip around. “Is it a sign?” “No!” “Is it living?” “No!” A little later, you pass another red car. “See one!” you call again. Now everyone has two sightings, and the pattern starts to click. Questions fly. Guesses stack up. “Red car?” someone blurts. Correct. A new secret object is picked, and it’s game on.
See One! is a fast, social game that turns your journey into an immersive challenge where the real world becomes the game board. You play at the same time as everyone else, with each person secretly choosing their own secret object. As soon as you spot your secret object, you call “See one!” and everyone else fires rapid questions to deduce what you saw. Optionally, you can include the count of the number of times the secret object was cited. The result is a feedback loop of adrenaline, observation, and laughs that works for all ages and keeps the whole group included in the detective work.
What truly sets See One! apart is how the game turns the passing landscape into a living, real time logic game. Unlike static trivia or slow-paced guessing games, every “See one!” happens in real time, using context and the latest sightings to sharpen the questions and close in on the answer. Best of all, you can jump in instantly: short learning curve, no setup, no supplies, no mess, and no turns, just nonstop fun.
Audience: Family/5+ • Players: 2+ • Duration: As little as 5 minutes—whole journey • No components required
Dear Mary;
Thank you so much for the Thanksgiving Escape Room Game! It is the perfect diversion from watching Football and standing in front of the appetizer table and “over indulging”!
Thank you for making it easy enough for young readers and entertaining enough for all to join in the fun! Best compliment that I could get (Besides the food being fantastic) is what a fun day it was. Then… they’ll ask…”What do you have planned for the Christmas get together”?? Yikes!!
Your activities make it so easy to plan the down time between arrival and dinner. Guests would rather have something different to do than the usual Thanksgiving “fun” although traditions are good to keep Thanksgiving Bingo in the rotation. Again, thank you so much for your creative effort. I truly appreciate it. Trish
I am so glad that you loved these games Trish. Such kind comments mean a lot. Thank you. <3
