Pin the Tail on the Donkey is very popular among kids party games and is fondly played by children all around the world.

The game is as simple to play as all fun party games are. A picture of a donkey that is missing its tail is stuck on the wall at a height where the shortest of the kid is able to reach with her/his hands.

The kid whose turn it is, is blindfolded first of all. Then s/he is handed over a paper tail with a push pin attached to it. Then the kid is spun around so that s/he loses her/his orientation of direction.

Now the kid is supposed to reach the donkey and pin the tail where it is supposed to be. The distance of the tail where the kid pins it from the donkey's behind becomes a matter of laughter by the entire party of kids.

Everyone gets a chance and the one whose pinning has been closest to the donkey's behind wins the game. Of course winning the game is not as important as the fun of the light-heartedness that the game provides the party with, is.

The game is played by adults as well turning it into a drinking game where the worst pinning is awarded a shot of a particular variety of alcohol before the next round begins.
