SURPRISE?!?!?!?!?!?!PARTY!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

esdmn

I am throwing a surprise birthday party for one of my best friends. She is turning 15. It is going to be on new years eve because her birthday is January 1. It will be a sleepover, all girls, with most likely 7 girls at most 10. She isn't super girly but spa theme is doable and stuff like that, but sports is not her thing. She is super creative though. I have a hot tub and we will probably go in it but the night really doesn't need to revolve around that. If any one has any THEMES or ideas or games.I don't want the same old same old but if you have an idea just post it. Even if it is like fiesta themed something standard just say because I may not have thought of it.AND please, elaborate and links please! Anything that will enhance the party I would really appreciate it! Thank you so much! :)

Answer
have a chinese birthday party....buy chinese es take out for u and your friends and play chinese checkers and make moon cake(moon cakes are really good) play chinese jump rope for prizes

have a cooking party buy different kinds of cake and you and your friends each make your own little cake and after their done baking you and u can decorate them and votes who is the best...play fun cooking games like buy different kinds of cookies put them in a bag shake them up have someone cover their eye pick one out and eat and try to guess what kind of cookie it is.

have a movie party rent a bunch of movies and play fun games like watch a movie and once in a while just stop the movie and see who can guess what the character says...make popcorn with different topping like carmel chocolate butter butterscotch?

Have a new years game have everyone make and hat with gems and sparkles and stuff and sees who is the best? its really funny on new years cuz then you have something to throught up in to the air when the new year comes

Then consider the Medieval Madness Mystery Party. In this party, guests come in character as if they were attending the wedding feast of a medieval prince and princess. During the first course the king, who is played by a willing adult, drops dead, apparently poisoned.

Play continues as the birthday girl and her guests try to figure out using a medieval trial system just who the killer was. The surprising fact is that most of the partygoers want to be found guilty! The game is finished by a mock sentencing, followed by cake and ice cream for all! This party works beautifully for either all girls or a mixed group, but not for all boys.

A Glamour Birthday Party for Teenage Girls
A little more serious in nature, but still fun, is a party theme based on the glamorous life.
For this party, guests are asked to come in their fanciest gowns, wear their most beautiful jewels, and expect to be pampered.
Décor for this birthday party theme can be in the birthday girlâs favorite color, in elegant black and silver, or really anything fancy. Pull out the best china, linens, and crystal, or find elegant paper and plastic party goods (perhaps even from the wedding or bridal section). Depending on budget, this teen party can be as fancy as one dares. Up for renting a limo?
Food should be fancy, a bit extravagant, and pretty. A formal dinner may be in order (at home or out at a nice restaurant).
For an activity, watching one or more of The Princess Diaries movies or the quirky 1987 film The Princess Bride would be perfect.
Another fun thing to do is to have the girls bring their digital cameras and take "glamour shots" of each other in fancy dresses, various poses, and elegant makeup.
Party favors can be a small, elegant piece of jewelry, a pretty goblet, or little makeup sets.
This would also work as a tweens birthday party idea theme.

Have a Pink Birthday Party Theme for Teen Girls
Go all out with this fun theme where even Barbieâs house looks dull by comparison. Go crazy with pink invitations (asking guests to wear pink, of course), party goods, décor, balloons, bows, and food.
Food ideas include a really pink cake, strawberry ice cream, and pink heart-shaped cookies. Pink-tinted pancakes with strawberry syrup might be yummy, as would strawberry milk. If it gets to sickeningly sweet, add in some pink mashed potatoes. Brainstorm what light colored food can be tinted pink.
For fun party activities, Hasbro has a cool line of pink games for girls. How about pink Monopoly, Twister, or Jenga (available at Toys 'R' Us)?
Consider a tie-dye birthday craft where guests color white T-shirts or pillow cases various tones of pink.
For party favors, shop for pink goodies at a dollar store, including some pink nail polish and blush.

who knows what 2 do for my 13th birthday?

isha

i need help planning my 13th birthday.its in march.

Answer
www.birthdaypartyideas.com

http://www.birthdaypartyideas.com/html/m...

When I turned 13 and I wanted have a unique birthday party. I love to shop so I wanted a mall party. My invitation was a gorgeous jewelry box I purchased for $1 that each girl received. On the top of the box was a special made card with pictures of shopping bags, shoes, clothes etc.and a hand made ribbon. It stated for each girl to join her for her birthday party. When the girls opened the box it included shredded tissue paper with plastic colored diamond rings. On top of the rings were the actual invitation to the party. Both cards were a smaller version of a business card made with a home computer. The day of the party the girls arrived at my daughter's favorite shopping mall. I had coupons at a really nice photo studio who offered each girl a free 8X10 picture w/no sitting fee and they were able to receive their pictures within an hour. Each girl received a picture of themselves and I was able to receive a picture of the entire group. After they took pictures, we had a mall scavenger hunt. They were broken into groups. They had a list of items to find. Each group had to take pictures of the items they found(some had their own camera cell phones;we also had visible disposable digital cameras as back up). Examples of items on the list of things they had to find were snow boats in a store, they had to try them on and take a picture;another example is that they had to receive a perfume sample from a sales person;they had to get permission to have a picture taken with the sales woman). The employees in the mall enjoyed being a part of the scavenger hunt. The group who found the most items and took the most pictures won the scavenger hunt. That group won a prize. The next activity was for the girls to shop. They each received a gift card(their parents were also nice enough to send money for the child to shop). After the girls shopped, we went to a nice chinese restaurant located in the mall. We had a late lunch, sang happy birthday, enjoyed birthday cake and presented my daughter with her birthday gifts. The girls really had a wonderful time and it was an inexpensive birthday party.

Blessings...Iza

What should i do for my 15th birthday party?!?

Chris

I'm not good at parties, and i never have been, bu ti want to do something this year. I have no idea of what to do, and if I should have it at my house or somewhere else. my house is not that big., it would be crowded if i took in more than 25 people. Any ideas? also, its in december, so i cant really go outside, because its the 22nd

Answer
- Bowling.

- Survivor Party

*Decorate with tiki torches, luminaries, and "most coveted"- the immunity idol.

Think balmy and exotic! Bright and colorful is sure to set a tropical ambiance.

Palm fronds and palm trees should line the area.

You can create grass huts out of grocery bags by cutting it into thin strips, and hanging on a card table.

Be sure to cover your patio umbrellas with raffia. You can also use a tropical scene that covers a long wall rather than individual decorations.

Fishnets and seashells are a great accent. You will want to make sure you have plenty of tropical flowers, whether fresh or silk.

Line the area with Hawaiian themed posters and art.

Tiki statues make great table centerpieces. For the evening ambiance, tiki torches are a must.


*Survivor Party Games- "Immunity Challenges"

Gummy worm eating contest. The first team to eat all their worms wins!
Treasure maps. Hunt for selected items around your yard. Make a map out of a brown lunch bag. Burn the edges of the paper for an authentic look.
Tug of war. Tribes face off in a challenge of brute strength.
Obstacle course. Survivors must meet specific challenges such as walking through a balance beam (wood planks placed on cement blocks), untying a rope to get a key, etc.
Limbo and hula hoop contests are also great fun. It's easy planning and everyone is a closet "hula-ist."
A Pearl and Shell game is great fun for the more analytical guest. You will have three shells, and underneath one, you will have a pearl (or whatever item you choose). It's kind of like a magic trick or card game. The dealer moves the three shells around, and the guest chooses which one has the pearl inside.
Another creative game is to split the guests into several groups. Purchase floral cloth fabrics for your tropical theme, and give the fabric to each group. The group has to make the most creative attire possible within five minutes. Examples of attire include skirts, headbands, Speedos... whatever they can imagine! Vote which group has the most creative and fun idea.
Bonfire creation. Tribes have one match and must create the highest fire with only items found around the yard- sticks, leaves, etc. No flammables!
Place bets to see who will be the "ultimate survivor" in the season finale.
Skip the tribal council- no one likes being voted out!

*Costumes/Dress Attire

You can certainly get very creative with your survivor party theme, but most guests will participate if it's easy. Survivor t-shirts and Hawaiian shirts are nice and easy and will guarantee 100% participation. Guests may also choose to wear sarongs or beachcomber hats and sandals. Women get more accessories, with flowers in their hair and shell jewelry.

*Invitations/Printables

Personalize the invitations to say Survivor _____ (group name, organization, neighborhood). Draw or include items such as tiki idols, tiki torches, palm trees, coconuts, etc. You can also glue shells or sand to the invitations.

Another great idea is to visit your local travel agency for Hawaiian travel brochures. Attach your invitation to the brochure to set the stage for your island paradise party.


*music

Hawaiian & Caribbean music should be played in the background. Reggae and Caribbean music are also good to add to the mix. Even though Jimmy Buffett, isn't technically Pacific Rim, he is well known for a tropical paradise theme!

*Food & Drink

Here are some ideas for enticing cuisine: Spiced pork Rice Steamed vegetables Barbeque foods Fresh fruits- pineapple, strawberries, melons, papayas Fresh vegetables Crab salad Roasted bananas Macadamia nuts Hawaiian sweet bread See our theme party recipe cookbook for thousands of recipe ideas.

Tropical paper goods can be found in your local party store.

The best drinks include Margaritas, Mai Tais, Pina Coladas, Bahama Mamas, and Frozen Daiquiris. Be sure to have Hawaiian punch on hand for the non-alcoholic set as well as water for all.

Drinks should be served in pineapple or coconut cups to keep with the theme. They can be found in your local dollar store when they become available.

Fun Party Ideas For a 12 Year Old Girl?

birthday party jewelry invitation image

Nikki Jai

My daughter is turning twelve soon so we are trying to come up with a fun party idea. Last year she went bowling and this year I offered to have it at my home. There will be 10-20 girls there. We are still deciding on if it will be a sleepover or not. What did you do for your 12th birthday party or what are you planning to do? We are trying to stay under $200.00, but we will go up about $25 more. Should we have it at home or somewhere else? My daughter isn't really into make-up, but loves spas. She is a real girly-girl. Thanks so much!

Answer
How about a girly-girl slumber party? Here are some suggestions:

Invitations:
-Print your party details in large block letters on clean, white pillowcases. Fold them and send them in manila envelopes.
-Mail your invitations along with a small teddy bear or stuffed animal for your guests to bring to the party.
-Punch a hole in the corner of a card-style invitation and attach it to a new toothbrush and a small tube of toothpaste. Your guests can bring these items with them to the party! Mail your invites in padded envelopes.
-Here's an invite idea.
Are you ready for some giggles and gossip?
Maybe some pizza, and some chips and dip?
Then come to Ella's party and bring your pj's,
'Cause it's going to be fun in so many ways!

Decorations:
-Streamers and tulle around the room
-Glow-in-the-dark stars on the ceiling
-Pillows, sleeping bags, and blankets around the room
-Popular music that your guests can dance to (like Super Bass and Pop by NSYNC)
-White twinkle lights around the perimeter of the ceiling

Food at night:
-Funny Face Bagels. Spread cream cheese on bagels then decorate with jelly in a squeeze tube.
-Relaxing Refreshments. Soda, strawberry milk, and juice with silly straws would work.
-Popcorn Passing. Give everyone a bag of popcorn and pass around the flavors such as powdered cheese or barbecue powder.

Food in the morning (breakfast):
-Smiley Face Pancakes. Decorate pancakes with toppings such as whipped cream, chocolate chips, chocolate syrup, finely chopped nuts, blueberries, and more to make them look like Smiley Faces.
-Waffles. Let your guests choose their own waffle toppings such as cherries, whipped cream, strawberries, chocolate chips, and nuts.
-Fruit Pops. Slide sections of fruit, such as pineapple, banana, strawberries, and grapes onto a wooden skewer and serve.

Games and activities:
-Make your own scrapbooks. Provide the paper, coloring materials, beads, buttons, stickers, and more.
-Play the traditional party game Telephone.
-Name That Tune. Give each guest a chance to pick 5 songs from YouTube and let the others guess. After three rounds, the winner gets a unique prize.
-Play the traditional party game Flashlight Tag.
-Bake cupcakes with your guests. After that, have a cupcake decorating contest! Provide the cream, sprinkles, chocolates, and more.
-Create a fun scavenger hunt for your guests.
-Like what you mentioned, setting up spa-themed activities or beauty stations would be good. How about a mani-pedi station--or a hair perm station? :)
-Watch fun chick flicks such as:
The Notebook
Monte Carlo
The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants
The Princess Diaries
Ella Enchanted
Aquamarine
Girls Just Want To Have Fun
Never Been Kissed
The Princess Bride
A Cinderella Story

-How about other cool movies?
Alvin and the Chipmunks
Nanny McPhee
Harry Potter
High School Musical
Hugo
Lemonade Mouth
The Secret Garden
Diary of A Wimpy Kid
Titanic
The Ring
Paranormal Activity

Favors:
-Pillowcases
-Lotion, lip gloss, and nail polish
-Candy
-Stickers
-Costume jewelry

how would i throw a PINK by Victoria Secret themed birthday party?

Briana H

because i can only find invitations to go with the theme and NOTHING else. . so please help if you have any ideas or find any sites.
Thanks Emily and Ladydi! both of you helped me so much! :)
Ladydi: im sorry, but i can't find the link you said you had.

Answer
Emily's got good ideas so I agree with her. How about throwing in some huge white feathers to make the "Victoria's Secret" Angels effect? Hang pink sheer gossamer fabric all around , draping doorways, etc: add pink or white twinkle lights....(can also buy separate pink light bulbs). Pink feather boas even! Don't forget to use DIFFERENT shades of pink...light to dark so that everything stands out better instead of just looking "too much of the same"---like adding the deep color of strawberries.

Play music by PINK>>here's a link to a site where you can hear all artists but this link is to hear "Get this Party Started" (just click on the icon "listen now")...while your're at it...play "Bring Sexy Back" by Justin Timberlake (they used that song on one of their shows). But the site gives you the chance to listen and choose whatever you want for your party.
FOOD IDEAS: Pink Yogurt: Blend some crushed fresh or frozen strawberries into plain yogurt to make it pink.

strawberry syrup to milk

Pink lemonade will compliment - You can add cranberry juice to regular lemonade to turn it pink.

Another pink food you can make is pink potato salad. Make your favorite potato salad recipe, and use Catalina dressing with the other dressings for a pleasing pink potato salad.

Shrimp is pink when it's cooked...so is salmon....even ham is "pinkish"
Coloring dips/cream cheese with food coloring is an option (remember, it's good to have different shades).

Vegetarians can add kidney beans to a stew, a salad or other baked dish.

Other foods besides beet juice which can be used to naturally turn foods pink or red including pomegranates or pomegranate juice, and Maraschino cherries.

Pink Snacks--Cinnamon Applesauce--Cook apples with some cinnamon red hots to make some pink and tasty warm applesauce.

Watermelon flavor Jell-O (look online for recipe adding cool whip and even fruit for a whipped jello dish!)

Pink Peppermint Sugar Cookie Hearts

Pink Hostess Snowball Cakes (a whole mound of them would look really cute...and an easy dessert!)

Dishes of pink M&M's, pink jellybeans or pink smarties or those bridal pink almonds.

Have everyone wear pink to your party! Prizes can be anything from pink nail products to pink bath/body products or lip gloss or pink (homemade) accessory/jewelry pouches.

How can I have a chocolate birthday party for 11 year old?

birthday party jewelry invitation image

Q. My daughter's birthday is coming up and she told me she wanted a chocolate birthday party. I need experienced moms to answer this question: How can I throw my 11 year old girl's chocolate birthday party? All she decided s she wants a chocolate fountain and the party colors will be baby blue and brown.

Answer
Blue & brown are cute together! I would do chocolate fondue instead of a fountain, but if she really wants the fountain, go for it.

I would say just get blue & brown decorations and then have a lot of fruit (strawberries, cherries, raspberries, etc) and some bite sized things like marshmallows or small pieces of brownies to dip in the fondue/fountain.

You can also buy a giant 5 lb Hershey bar instead of a cake.

I would get some chocolate hugs and attach them to index cards and ask the guest to write one thing they like about the birthday girl. They could eat the hug then "hug" her back by giving her the card.

Maybe an ice cream bar?

I'd also put on the invitation that things could get messy so parents are warned ahead of time. Then you could do fun activities like putting some cute costume jewelry in a baby pool filled with chocolate syrup/whipeed cream/sprinkles and having each guest dig for their treasure. They would get to keep one piece of jewelry as a favor.

Ideas for a Cinderella themed 5 year old birthday party?

peace*love

Hi! I am running my mom's friend's daughter's 5 year old birthday party next saturday. I'm 13 and I'm doing it with the help of my best friend. We need some ideas for games and activities 5 year olds might like playing that have to do with cinderella. We are going to show off the birthday girl's dance she made up to "Bibbidi Bobbodi Boo" and do their hair all pretty for sure.

Answer
Invatations.

You can find cheap Cinderella invatations on Ebay.
http://shop.ebay.co.uk/i.html?_trkparms=65%253A12%257C66%253A2%257C39%253A1%257C72%253A2471&_nkw=Cinderella+invitations&_dmpt=UK_Home_Garden_Celebrations_Occasions_ET&_nkwusc=Cinderella+invatations&_rusck=1&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_sop=15&_sc=1

If there blank inside create your own message saying something like "You are cordially invited to a Royal Celebration for ______ Birthday"

Decor.

The colors of choice are icy blue, pink, lavender and white.
Cover the tables white or pink table cloths and icy blue table runners. (or vice versa)
Sprinkle blue, pink and silver sequins, candies or beads down the center. Use frosted cupcakes place in a cupcake stand, as your centerpiece with helium balloons.
If you can cover the chairs in white chair back && blue ribbons (in a bow)
Silver Balloons && streamers.
Possibly a balloon arch by the enterance? or a home made castle gate?
(if you have time) Attempt to make a large castle. (Link below says how)
Lots of twinkling lights (even use last years xmas lights)
Bubble machine?
Put bottles of bubbles the kids can blow at the tables.

Games.

Dress your birthday princess up before the party, with a Cinderella tiara and jewelry. Announce the guests upon arrival and escort them to the royal preparation table, where they will receive a small amount of lipstick, blush and eye shadow. If you have not already suggested the girls wear their favorite dress-up dress...provide a box of special dress up clothes and a mirror.

Face Painting.

The fairy Godmother has lost her magic wand!
Before the party hide toy wands in the party area.
The object of the game is to find a wand before the clock strikes twelve. Give the girls an appropriate amount of time to find a wand and then begin striking a bell twelve times.

Play classical music or the soundtrack from Cinderella while the girls dance. When the girls here the clock chime (bell), they must freeze

Cinderella colouring in.

Before the party, write the names of Cinderella characters on several 3x5 cards; stepmother, step sisters, prince, fairy godmother...
To play, tape the cards onto the girls backs, so that they cannot see their own character. The object of the game is to identify who is on your back, by asking yes/no questions of the other players.
Example:
Am I a girl ? Boy? Am I nice?
Do I have magical powers?

Hope this helps!

Have fun!
