What are some good birthday party games for 7-10 year olds?

I'm working at a putt putt and my job on saturday & sundays is to be a party captain. So i am in charge of entertaining little kids from the ages of 7-10ish for an hour, i do the cake, ice cream, and presents but i was wanting to know some good games for all the kids to play too. During this hour i have them all in a small room so i cant really have them running around because they'd probably just hurt themselves lol so what are some games i could play w/them that they would really enjoy? i dont want to make some kids birthday party suck...so help me please!!

Answer:
well i have 2 kids ages 7 and almost 11 so if i get this wrong then i am in BIG trouble.

simple magic tricks
keep the balloon in the air
hot potato
name that disney tune
MAD LIBS ,,, they love the silly outcomes
classics- pin the tail on the donkey

or maybe the quiet game? youll wish you played that!
spin the bottle
Bobbing for apples.keeping the egg on the spoon in crazy shoes...Hunts are always good...Tug a war.Blinds man bluff-put something sround one kids eyes and make them try and tag others...Crafts- so they can bring something back from the party...always make sure they are all playing for prizes
I have 3 kids around these ages and they always like playing Simon says, hot potato, 20 questions, What's my line and the best thing about all of these games are there is very little running around involved. I also found a good site not long ago when planning my son's 9 year old party. Good luck and I think you will do a great job since you are wanting to explore your options.
