Playing fire fighter has always been a hit with my kids. When they go to their grandparents’ house, they love “putting out” their electric fireplace. At home I made them little pop up tissue paper fires they can put out with pool noodle hoses. So, for my daughter’s Paw Patrol themed birthday party, I made the Marshall themed game about fire fighting. In this Marshall Paw Patrol game, the kids need to put out pretend fires to get to their prize. It was easy to put together.

How to Make a Marshall Paw Patrol Firefighting Game
Materials:
- Plastic ring discs
- Blue paint
- 3 wooden skewers
- Cardboard box
- Laminator (optional)
- Prizes (here are how to make my Marshall pup badge necklaces)
- 3 red balloons
Making the Game:
To make the game, I started by painting three plastic ring discs with blue paint. Then, I stuck three wooden skewers in a taped shut cardboard box. I printed out pictures of fire from Clip Safari, laminated them, and taped them to the top of each stick. I made sure that the fires were small enough for the disks to easily fit over.
Lastly, I set it up outside. I placed the fire box in between the blue disks and my prizes. For our Paw Patrol mission, I had pieces of the map behind it. For our free play I had enough Marshall pup tag necklaces for each kid to be able to have one.
Making the Sign:
Now I needed a sign, to make it obvious where the Marshall Paw Patrol game was. I started by tying three red balloons together. Then, I laminated a set of directions and a picture of Marshall and taped them to the balloon. Here is a free download of the directions to all of my Paw Patrol party games. Here is where I got my picture of Marshall.
Playing the Game:
Now that it is all set up, we were ready to play. The kids put out the fires by throwing the disks over each one. Once the fires were extinguished, they were able to walk around the box to claim their prize. The younger kids could stand right in front of it to throw their discs. But, the older kids had to stand further back to make it more difficult.
Conclusion of Our Marshall Paw Patrol Party Game
This game wasn’t enjoyed as much as I would have expected. I think it was a bit too hard for the younger kids and it didn’t feel like they were putting out the fires. I think with a few tweaks it would have been more fun. Maybe throwing “water” beanbags to knock over fires would be more fun. Give both ideas a try and let me know what your kids think in the comments below.
