ideas for birthday party invitations 50th image
Kelly
My birthday is in 2 weeks and I don't know where to have it. I can't have a sleepover and I already went bowling last year. I kind of wanted to have it at my house but i have no idea what to do. Any ideas?
Answer

have a bon fire
Games
capture the flag
music chairs
twister
scavenger hunt
truth or dare?
I went to a friend's birthday party and her mom had written up these slips of paper that had truth or dare questions on them and other little activities and "winner" on them. Then she put them into balloons and blew them up. Then we would take turns picking a balloon and popping it to get the paper out and we would have to do whatever was on the paper. If they got a winner one, then they'd get a prize. One boy got a truth or dare question - I can't remember what the question was but something like "Do you still sleep with your teddy bear" or some embarassing question like that and the dare was Run around the house (outside) so many times chanting "I'm an idiot". He opted to run around the house. It was hilarious
finger sandwichs tuna turkey ect
hot wings
Food
chips and dip pizza
cheese on a stick wit crackers andham around it
pig in the blankets
honey chicken on a stick
fruit tray
cheese sticks
onion rings
fried pickles
cookies
finger sandwichs tuna turkey ect
hot wings
if you ddont wanna do that you can do this
Blast from the Past, 50's sock hop, where every one dresses from 50's ponytails, rolled up jeans, poodle skirts, thick white socks to dance in. Play that era music, and jitterbug, stroll, and the like. Food could be hot dogs, cocoa, hamburgers and chips. Cut out cardboard jukeboxes/soda fountains, 57 Chevys, and paint for decorations.
Eighties Bash, BIG HAIR, lots of makeup, Tom Cruise look for guys, Disco balls. Subs, finger foods. Flashing lights, cocktail signs etc. Trivial Pursuit.
Favorite book characters/TV/movie characters, in costume, play games like Charades to guess character. Decorate with cardboard movie posters, homemade, or book jackets. Play music from movies/TV shows. Fonzie punch, Tool man stew, Potter potatoes, etc.
Princess type party, with formal dress for guests, floor length dresses, suits/tuxes for guys. Cake and punch, streamers, twinkle Xmas lights behind evergreen branches, and in jars/punch bowls.
Charity party, where everyone donates food to be distributed to food bank. A project can be done, either picking up trash, walking animals at shelter, visiting with elderly, helping with children at a school, hot dogs, and cokes, no decorations needed much here.
A potluck dinner, where each guest will contribute something to eat, or drink, and you supply cake/punch. Play board games, watch a movie, or dance.
Round Robin dinner, or what is now called Progressive party, where one person provides snacks, another main course, another dessert, go from each house to visit, eat, and move on.
Skating party, if you live where ice skate outdoors, bundle up and build fire, have thermoses of hot cocoa, and go back to house for chili.
Hayride/sleigh ride, depending on area, either pull with horses, or tractor. Hamburgers/soup, cake.
Come as you are party, everyone must come as they were dressed when opened invitation. Cake punch.
hope that helps :)

Ideas for a game for a 60th birthday party?
floridagat
My mom is turning 60 this year and I'm throwing her a surprise party. Does anybody have any ideas for some kind of games or activities to do? Anything is appreciated!
Answer
Someone was going to do a surprise party for my 50th, but I found out & was glad it wasn't a surprise & could help in the planning, plan what to wear, & look forward to it. Surprise parties are dreadful. We got a free room at a local pizza & pasta place as long as we guaranteed 20 people. Invited about 75 to get 20. Someone made my favorite apple cake, & restaurant provided cake table similar to luggage rack. Did a 10-minute decorating job with construction paper numbers somebody had made for short party at work & the regular balloons not helium. Also, brought my crystal jar filled with Hershey's Kisses for dessert. Was fine. Invited whole families so parents wouldn't need to get sitters. (a few friends with late-in-life kids while in their 40's--maybe 6 or 7 kids)
I cut out comic strips from the newspaper & used white-out on some panels, glued them onto an 8 1/2 X 11 paper & mailed with the invitations for people to make up their own captions. Was things like Cathy trying on bras & Hagar & wife with a log, crashing a party, etc. That went well, but then had about 3 people judging the contest. That was stupid & too time-consuming. Should have just passed them around.
Prizes were cheap magnets from Big Lots & a package of incense, things I had around, etc. Should have just bought party favors from the party store for everyone. I wasn't used to giving parties.
Wanted to find words to well-known songs like She'll Be Coming Around the Mountain & Someone's in the Kitchen with Dinah & Beatles songs so there would be something for the kids to do, too. I wanted to photocopy the words. A friend vetoed that & said I should just ask kids what they like to sing. As it happened we didn't have time for the singing due to contest judging. Kids sat at their own table & colored pictures provided by restaurant. Should have done it my way since I think singalongs are fun for both kids & adults.
Regardless of that, it was the most wonderful night of my life. Was in wool aqua dress, which fits nicely. Should have had somebody taking pictures because it was so much fun. I gave little 1-minute speech thanking people for attending & saying I only wished I could have sat next to each one. Glad I had the presence of mind to do that. After cake & all, I went around the room & talked to each person so that everyone had my attention for awhile, although I did greet everyone, too, when each arrived.
One thing I started doing when helping with people's b-day cakes is to cut one piece for the honoree, & place a candle on it to be blown out instead of blowing all over the whole cake with all the germs. Also, there are plastic cakes with holes for candles that preschoolers' Sunday school classes use for birthdays when there won't be any cake. One of those would work, too, for the candle blowing. Another thing you can do is to let each person at the party come up to light a candle & make a wish for the honoree, using a candle snuffer afterward, while still letting the honoree blow out the one candle or six or whatever.
I've been at h.s. class reunions with that game of trivia about the time period, such as price of postage at the time of graduation. Worked well with a large group with each table of people working together. We've also had ones about our h.s. class (not for your party) & for names of places in town that may be gone now, such as the miniature golf course or the hamburger hangout.
The one game I saw on that link that wasn't good was the penalty for loosing balance. That's touchy for seniors, so think of a way to get around that. Sorry to be negative about that one thing because overall, I think the links people have given you were fantastic.
Another game is to make something like Bingo cards that has written info about people attending, like who went to Japan last summer or who has taken a train trip or had a certain car during h.s. or who owns an I-phone or who knows the nickname of the jazz musician (Satchmo) or plays the drums or some other trivia or hobby or personal info. Participants mingle with each other with a time limit to try to fill in each other's names as the answer for each rectangle & at least get a Bingo. Might take several sheets to get everyone in. Also, you'd need to email everyone to find out this personal trivia like hobby or trip or whatever. This is a get-acquainted game but would also work for this. Can give prizes like candy for highest number of right answers, whole sheet, or a Bingo.
more re: party favors...my mother arranged a family reunion at an all-you-can-eat buffet place with a party room. Besides an address list revised at the party & mailed out later, she also had cleared out her souvenir tote bags from her travels & a few knick-knacks. She arranged them on a long table for each person to take one or two.
