sleepover camping party ideas?




charlotte


im having 10, 14 year old girls over to camp in my garden.

we are having a bonfire with logs around and stuff

i was just wondering if any one had any good ideas of things we could do to make it special as it is kind of like a leaving thing for some of the girls..

it doesnt have to be too fancy though..

thanks !!!
xx



Answer
im having an old fashioned tea party (with 10, 14 year old girls too lol), evryone's getting really dressed up, then like we'll all get changed into really nice pjs in the evening and roast mashmallows on a fire and stay up really late talking, having fun, doing whatever! i was thinking like a breakfast eaten outside in our courtyard then maybe a waterfight and relaxing, lying in and sunbathing.

take LOADS of photos, im gonna have races after the tea party, like egg and spoon but with tea cups and make up other stuff like that. we're gonna play croquet and maybe badminton. for prizes im going to give out knickers from la senza!

string up loads of fairy lights and lanterns and balloons for decorations, it would look cool, that's what im doing. it doesn't have to be fancy but it would look pretty amazing (i've been having these parties sinse i was like seven).

im english but im guessing that you're american and this is a leaving party for juniour high? idk mines gonna be for my 14th birthday (its right at the end of the summer!).

SUMMER CAMP OUT PARTY IDEAS?

Q. well this is my last week of school of my 8th grade year. my mom and i decided i should have a summer camp out party in my backyard. were gonna get 2 tents and invite about 7 girls. i cant have a fire in my yard, cause my dad dont like burning things... so what else is there to do for fun? we prob will go to the movies before then come back here.. i jus dont know what to do all night when were back at my house... any ideas are appriciated(: & remember were 14 year old girls so dont say nothing too extreme(:


Answer
There are lots of fun things you can do! You can set up bobbing for apples and have a piniata. I always find hide and seek in the dark to be fun. Don't forget the music and you can try some kereoke. Finally you can end the night with truth or dare and the camping out tradition of ghost stories. I hope this helps. HAVE FUN!!!

Twilight Invitation Designs!?




tennisquee


I am having a twilight birthday party and I dont know what to do for my invitation! Any ideas will be fine, but i would really love it if you would attach pictures of designs. Im thinking something with quotes and that knid of thing...not the romantic Bella and Edward invite you thing. Any answers will be awesome! THANKS!!!! :-)


Answer
I'm doing the same for my party! We have such good taste =)

For my invitations, I am going to cut out a red apple and make it the same style as a greeting card. The inside will be black though and I was going to write on it with the ink you can only see in the dark (or lemon juice).

Or otherwise if your a technology sort of person you could make like a video with you inviting people to the party. Then burn a copy for your guest.

Just some ideas.
Hope you party goes well!

Sweet 16 party! HELP!?




Casey K


My friend and I have the same birthday and were both turning 16! It's at the end of February and we live in a pretty cold place...so no beach parties or camping ): There will be around 25 people girls and boys. So we want to know what GAMES/ideas and what we should do in general (sledding, sleepover for girls, Wii, movie?)
It CANNOT be expensive! We aren't able to rent a room or whatever. We just want it to be laid back!

and we for sure want a lot of fun game ideas!

Thank you so much! (:



Answer
Have some indoor and outdoor things in mind for the winter party. If you can go sledding..then make sure there's a time and place and sleds for you to take turns with. Making a snow sculpture contest of 2 teams or 3.

Indoor things (besides the wii and Twister or those Let's Dance videos, which are fun!..)...have some balloons on hand. Blow one up per each guest...tuck a note inside each one before giving an instruction for them to do....object of game is to have 2 teams and place 2 chairs far across the room. First person of each team grabs a balloon, rushes to chair, sits on balloon til it pops and shouts out what's written on the note and runs back to tag next member. You could put fortunes in them...or you can write things like "skip back to your team", "run backwards to your team", "do a somersault back to your team", "hop on 1 foot back to your team", "twirl around back to your team at least 3 times"...etc. (You may have to repeat some if you can't think of enough..that's ok). First team done wins.

Here's another one: The M&M Candy Hunt Game (candie colors have point values and are hidden in baggies which guests have to find, unaware of what each color is worth)...how to play>>
http://www.easy-party-ideas-and-games.com/mm-hunt.html

Here's another game with candy (You can tell each guest to bring 2 candy bars to the party..unopened!..take them from them when they come...or you can buy them, make sure there's 2 for each guest)...
Objective: Each person tries to get as many candy bars as they can.

Materials:
2 Candy bars for each player or couple
1 brown lunch sack for each player
a Timer, and a Wood die
a Bowl

Timer: Set timer in another room, so no one can watch to see how much time is left. A stop timer is perfect. Most families play for about a half-hour. After playing a few times, you will know how much time needs to be adjusted. Itâs fun to vary the time from each game to keep them off guard.

Preparation: If using this game for a party, assign each person to bring two candy bars. Take the candy when they arrive. One person (mother, father, or party leader) places two candy bars in a brown sack. Fold down the top of each sack the same so they can't see. If there are extra bars, place them in a bowl. Place a mark, (x) on the bottom of one of the bags.

Starting the game:

1. Have everyone gather in a circle.

2. Place bowl inside the circle.

3. Each person picks a sack out of the center.

4. Explain that each sack contains two candy bars and no one is to look until directed to do so.

5. Each person looks into their own sack but does not tell what kind of bars they have.

6. Everyone closes their bag. Players may look inside any sack that is their own during the game.

7. Who goes first? The player with the mark on the bottom of their sack. That player rolls first then follows to the left.

Roll Die: A player has to follow what has been rolled.

Now, if a #1 is rolled>> Take the Bowl: If rolled the player takes all the bars.

if #2 is rolled>> Trade sacks: Player picks another player to trade sacks with. Remember: You want the most candy

if a #3 is rolled>> Lose a turn: Lose next turn.

if a #4 is rolled>> Add Bar to Bowl: The player takes a bar from his sack and adds to the bowl. Donât let people know your sack is empty. This might help out when trading. If you receive an empty sack donât say anything. Just hope you can pass is off

if a #5 is rolled>> Double take: A player who rolls this takes one bar from the players on his left and right. If the player is out of bars, youâre out of luck.

and if a #6 is rolled>> Guess a Bar: Players need to watch bars and sacks as they are exchanged.
When rolled a player says a person's name and tries to guess the candy bar in their sack. The players only needs to answer with a yes or no. If the player asked has the bar, he must give it to the roller.

Ending the Game: When the timer goes off everyone keeps the sack that they end up with. If a player has rolled the die when the timer goes off, that player may complete his turn. At this time any bars left in the bowl must be rolled for.

Birthday Party Help?




fwog_fwog


Okay, I am trying to create my daughter's invitations. She is turning 2. Last year, we had her party at Chili's. About 20 people came. I didn't pay for everyones dinner, just my household. Everyone paid for their own. Well, I pretty much invited only family so, it was kinda expected.

This year, the party will be at Golden Corral. This year I am inviting about 20 more people than I did last year.

How do I word the invitations that I am not paying for everyones dinners? The adult prices are 9.19 (buffet) and 1.59 (drinks). Should I include the price?

How do I do this?
I guess I should include that this is not uncommon and I have no where else to have the party other than a resturant. My house is not suitable for a party not to mention, I am close to all that are invited. So, you can leave out how tacky this is and answer the question simply!! Thank you.



Answer
This sounds like fun! Look at the below example and maybe you can develop this to fit the particulars of the situation.

Birthday Party for (Name of your Child)
Where: Golden Coral Restaurant at 123 Main Street, Anywhere USA
Prices: Adults: Lunch $9.19, drinks $1.59 (free refills?); you might want to consider gratuity language such as (prices do not include tips). Or if some members of the party are "sensitive" to this - then leave it out all together; most people are pretty intelligent about these things.
Date: Sunday 1 April 2007
Time: 2:00 to 4:00 PM
Dress: Casual (or even leave this out if you think it may bother anyone).

Basically, people should not be offended by this and I hope your childs birthday turns out to be fun for you, baby, and anyone else that attends. Best of luck and I hope this helps.

14 year old birthday party ideas?




Starrrrrrr


so my daughter is turning 14 in june but we are starting to plan now. ok so i need all ideas that you have for me she wants it to be at a roller rink /dancing.i told her that she could invite around 60 people to her party...including adults friends fam. etc. so please help me thanks ! btw her favorite colors are purple pink yellow and white. also she LOVES mindless behavior and the wonder broz. is there any way i could get them to come? thank you for your help and have a wonderful day !


Answer
The roller rink sounds good for the party.

You can use a word on play for the invitation...something like to Sk8 or not to 'sk8!

The most you would have to decorate are the tables where the birthday girl would be having cake and perhaps food and drinks. Very nice table clothes in her favorite colors layers (ex table one has a purple table cloth on the bottom in a diamond shape and a pink table cloth in a square shape on top), a few balloons and a birthday banner.

Or you can surprise her and have the skating at the rink and them move the "after party" to your home and have cake and set a time for her and her friends to kick back and have a good time. Perhaps a sleep over spa night can happy after the skating party with just a few of her closest friends. Tell the girls to bring slippers and robes. You can find a bunch of spa recipes online.

You can also get one of her fav pics of her. Blow it up and put that on the table and perhaps a guest post board for all of the guests to sign while @ the party.

As far as getting mindless behavior to come to the party... you should give it a shot. They are on Streamline Records. You can give the record company a call and I am sure they direct you to the booking manager.

Can Someone Help with Ninja Gaiden II Birthday Party?




Hot Mama1


My son wants to celebrate his 10th birthday with Ninja Gaiden II for the XBox 360. I can handle the cake and invitations but what about everything else? No one carries anything "Ninja Gaiden II"?


Answer
In my opinion, he is too young to play that game, it is rated "M" for a reason, in addition to a massive amount of blood, there is a scene of frontal nudity.

And from experience, he will go insane from the difficulty of the game.

But if you want to give him a Ninja Gaiden Birthday party...

Some plastic swords, a ninja outfit or two, and a oriental setting would do well for your son.

Sweet 16 Party Invitations?




Catheri


For my sweet sixteen party me and a group of friends are going to a rodeo. i bought paper and some dimensional stickers to make the invitations but now i cant decide how i want to make them. I have a pack of 12x12 paper and a pack of 6x4. i dont want them to be too big, but i dont know what to do for the layout... any help?


Answer
You should throw a birthday party that is fun and memorable. Just keep it as uncomplicated as possible. You should have a themed outback party. All you need to do enough food and drinks for everyone and a great selection of music that everyone would want to dance to. You can have it in your backyard, a local park, or in an open space you can rent (if you have the money). Make sure you let your family and friends know the type of gifts you want now so they will have enough time to buy them. Here are some gift ideas specifically 16yr olds that you would want to ask for http://www.giftgrease.com/sweet_sixteen.html is you don't find anything you like there then here are more http://www.giftgrease.com/birthday-gift-ideas.html Yeah, birthdays are not all about gifts, but it would not hurt to get some on your birthday. Hope this helps.

Birthday Party Ideas..?!?




Piggly.Wig


Okay, I wanna have a birthday party, but I dont really want to go swimming.. but maybe if there were a fun place at a hotel or something..?! I would invite 19- 20 thirteen year old girls! Any ideas?! :)


Answer
1. Teen's Funky Fairytale party! For my daughter's 14th birthday, we decided to host a Funky Fairytale party. This is a great idea for teens as it's not babyish like a normal 'fairytale' party. It's for teens only! I guarantee your teen and her friends will love it! We decided that the time would be from 4pm to 7pm, with 10 girls coming and 3 sleeping over. The invitations were typed up on gorgeous unicorn paper (tying in with the fairytale theme) we found for only $2 at a discount store: ONCE UPON A TIME.... DEAR_______, YOU'RE INVITED TO ANNA'S 14TH FUNKY FAIRYTALE PARTY. TIME, DATE, PLACE, RSVP, ETC. COME DRESSED UP AS YOUR FAVE FAIRYTALE CHARACTER! LOVE ANNA. We held the party at our house as we've got a huge backyard. Here was our plan: Decorations: From our trees we hung up candy such as Chupa Chups, candy snakes etc, and using our cubby house we stuck lollies all round it as THE WITCHES HOUSE FROM HANSEL AND GRETEL We hung up rope from two trees that were close together, making a kind of enclosure. Then from the rope we hung up multicoloured streamers. In the middle of this we sat a mini table and chairs for the girls. This was really cool and the girls enjoyed having somewhere to sit, screened away from everyone! We scattered pastel-coloured balloons all through the house and tied the balloons to trees outside. A red carpet was put outside for the girls to walk on (like in Shrek) and we took photos of them as they walked with style down it. Games: Play pin the tail on the wolf- a traditional fairytale 'baddy'. Dip for marshmallows in a bowl of flour- so fun using only mouths! Go for a walk around your neighbourhood in your costumes which is guaranteed to cause some laughs with the girls Play pass the parcel- the traditional way but with dares. The doughnut game- hang up doughnuts from your clothes-line or from trees using string and race to see who can eat the doughnut first without using your hands! Make up a scavenger hunt- for example, LOOK IN THE PLACE WHERE CLOTHES GO ON HOLIDAY (LAUNDRY ROOM) Play sardines- one 'hider' hides in her choice of place, and the rest of the people, the 'seekers' have to look for the hider. When they find her they hide with her. The trick of this game is not to let the other team members see where you're hiding. The last person to find the 'hider' becomes the new 'hider'. A great game to play is MURDER IN THE DARK- either inside or outside at night, as it has to be dark when you play. Nominate one person to be the 'murderer' and the rest the 'hiders'. The hiders hide and the murderer has to find them and scare them. The person the murderer has just found becomes a murderer too. MAKE SURE THE LIGHTS ARE OFF WHEN YOU PLAY THIS! \*SEE RESOURCES FOR MORE GAMES Food: Snacks- Meringues Mini pavlovas with fresh fruit \*resources Cupcakes decorated with bats, fairies etc\* see resources Chocolate spiders \* resources Fairy bread Candy Dinner- Barbeque or roast Hot fries Salad or veggies Pizza Dessert- Icecream Birthday cake\* resources Make your own sundae Chocolate Drinks- Soft drink, juice, water etc Prizes: At Anna's party we gave away prizes to her friends, just cheap or bargain things like these- Cute bracelets approx. $2 Body spray approx. $2 Lipgloss/balm approx $2.50 Bath items like baths salts, etc approx. $2.50 We found another great idea is to copy a favourite, new CD and give a copy to each girl. Party Bags: Buy some cute bags, like the ones we bought from online store for only 25c each! \*resources Fill the bags with: Candy Chocolate A thank-you note- saying thanks for coming or thankyou for your beautiful gift.


2. THEME-Fire and Ice. The party celebrates the release of the new film Eclipse." Although the party encompasses all three books the theme is taken from the 3rd book and 3rd film. INVITATIONS-In "Eclipse Bella eats Poptarts. I will buy Strawberry and Blueberry Splitz Poptarts (one side of the Poptart is strawberry and the other side is blueberry). The strawberry represents fire and the blueberry represents ice. I will create invitations on my computer and wrap the label around the individually wrapped Poptarts. On the invitations, I will include the theme and ask Which one are you." (Fire-Team Jacob and Ice-Team Edward). I will also include that there will be a costume contest and to dress as their favorite character. I will rent a room but you can have it anywhere. DECORATIONS-In "Eclipse there is a graduation party that resembles a nightclub. I will recreate a nightclub. I will use very little light. I will buy a couple of red or black inflatable couches, chairs and bean bags. I will use small tables, and cover them with black tablecloths and put them next to the seating. I will buy glow in the dark stars and stick them around the walls. I will buy a strobe light and black lights from Spencer Gifts. You can get black lights in a light bulb form and put them in a desk lamp. I will do this and put the lamps on the small tables. As

What are some cool ideas for a Circus birthday party?




Marcella W


I am 13 and will be 14 in August. My theme is Circus. What are some fun ideas? thx! LAWLZ


Answer
For my daughter's second birthday, I chose a circus/carnival theme. We had just been to see Barnum & Bailey's and she was still really excited about all of the animals at the circus. The invitations were printed with clowns and titled "We'll be clowning around at Emma's 2nd Birthday Party." Along with the invitation which was stuffed with confetti, invitees also received a ticket for entry to the party. This was printed on blue cardstock, 1 inch tall x 6 inches long, and formatted to match an old concert ticket. It read: Brackett Entertainment Presents: "Emma Turns Two!" The Greatest Show Under the Big Top and along the tabbed side it said Admit One Family. I printed directions on the back of the tickets. We put signs up around the neighborhood pointing towards the Brackett Fairgrounds. We set up our front yard in typical carnvial fashion. I made pennants out of felt and spindle sticks (red, yellow and blue) and outlined my front yard with them so that guests were forced to go through the "ticket booth." As guests arrived, they presented their ticket at the ticket booth (a dinner tray with posterboard across the front saying Ticket Booth decorated with lots of streamer and balloons) where a volunteer gave each child a long string of red "25 cent" tickets and a bright colored paper bag with their name on it. The children could then go from booth to booth and play typical carnival games (pick-a-duck, ring toss, dig for treasure, lollipop pull, fishing game, and bean bag toss). Each booth had a volunteer who took 2 to 3 tickets and each booth gave prizes-win or lose. This is where the paper bags come in handy. Also, as a treat for my volunteers, they each got a button to wear and keep - it was a picture of a clown holding a sign which had their name on it. One of the "booths" was a moonwalk that we rented and had set up on the side of the house. In the center of the yard, we put up our dining canopy that we use for camping and I filled it with balloons and hung a sign on the front that said "Show Time 2:30 p.m." I placed a borrowed parachute on the floor of the canopy for the kids to sit on. I also printed off acrobats, cut them out, attached them with button tabs so they would swing, and hung them from the balloons. We hired a clown who put on a 30 min. magic show "under the big top." She then did face painting for another 30 mins. and when we went inside for the cake, she did balloon animals for all the kids. The cake was brightly decorated with circus animals on the bottom and a merry-go-round (Wiltons.com) on top with a flag pennant (a straw and construction paper) that said Happy Birthday Emma sticking out of the top of the merry-go-round. The dining room was decorated with red, yellow and blue streamer starting from the center of the room to the wall and then draping down to the floor so as to give a "big top" feel to the room. Of course, we had circus animal cut-outs all over the walls. We even had blow up circus animals (Oriental Trading Co.) in the bushes in the front yard with a sign that said "Don't Feed the Animals!" We opened one of our garage doors and placed two tables across it. We rented a popcorn machine and offered circus peanuts, cotton candy, animal crackers, sodas, hot dogs, and individual bags of chips. Of course, there was a sign hanging that said Concession Stand and listed the price of each item (Hot Dogs. . .2 tickets). We even had red & white striped bags for the popcorn (Oriental Trading Co.). We set up two tables in front of the garage doors so that people could eat comfortably. The kids loved having to "pay" for their food. As each child was leaving, they got a goodie bag stuffed with stickers that said "Thanks for coming to Emma's party", an animal shaped straw, an animal figure, a red clown nose, and a clown book. As thank you cards, we put together a "circus program" with pictures of the party and sent them to our guests. The kids had a blast! Our party started at 2:00 and the last guests didn't leave until 6:00. We didn't even open presents until afterwards. The adults even got a chance to have some fun in the moonwalk once most of the small kids went home. I ordered my invites and goodie bags from Birthdayinabox.com and all of my prizes and some decorations from Oriental Trading Co. The rest I made from things around the house. It took a while, but it was well worth it. The clown, moonwalk and popcorn machine came from a party rental store where we got a good package deal. This was one of the best parties we have ever had and we had over 20 kids who attended.

Birthday invitations?




Jessica H


My daughter's birthday is coming up. She is in preschool with about 20 other kids.
I don't have room for all of the kids, and I am sure only a small number will come.
My dilemma is that I don't know if I should invite the whole class or only the ones my daughter wants to invite. She has told me a few who she wants to be there.
So should I invite the whole class and put something like "special request" on the invites of the kids she wants to come? Or just invite those she wants to come?
I don't want to be rude, and I want all the kids/parents to feel welcome, but I really don't have the room. And if my daughter doesn't want to invite some maybe it's because they are mean to her at school, I definitely don't want that at her party. Any suggestions are welcomed. Thanks!!



Answer
Commonly accepted birthday party invitation etiquette where we live is if you are inviting the whole class than delivering invitations at school is fine. If only some kids are invited than mail the invitations or offer a personal invitation via phone. You can't be sure who will come and who won't, so if you don't have room at your home for 20 additional children than don't invite that many. What we did for our kids' parties was if we were having the party at our home, they were permitted to invite as many children as they were old. We alternated if this number included them in the count or not. Our goal was to have an equal number of children present as even numbers always work out better than odd. For example, when they turned 5, they could invite 5 friends plus they would equal 6 kids total. When they were 6, they could have 6 kids total, counting themselves. So, basically every 2 years they had the same number of kids at the party. If they chose to have their party somewhere other than our house than we would base the number of invitations on how much the venue cost. Bowling parties and lazer tag were expensive so we limited it to 10 kids tops. The local pool offers packages that permit up to 30 kids and they provide the life guards so inviting the whole class is doable. Personally, at the preschool age, I'd go with a small group of kids and let her choose if it's going to be at your home. I would not go with the "special request" option only because that sort of thing gets around and takes on a life of it's own. Things can get dicey when people feel they are slighted or their kids are left out. It can be petty and immature, but that's how it is. I wouldn't stress an awful lot over this as it can quickly turn into drama and become less than fun for all. I suggest you find out who she wants to come and go from there. If she has kids she doesn't want to come ask her why. Friendships at this age come and go on a daily basis so who she says she wants this week may be different if you ask her next week. If you have other options for holding the party where everyone could come than consider that if that is what you both want. For some kids the more the merrier, but for others a few close friends is the best way to go. Consider you daughter's personality when deciding.

Art Camp Help.?




Yodel-a-e-


So this summer me and my friend are running a beach themed art camp. We basically have the art part planned out, but we need help with activities for that age group (4-8, I know bad combination)

4 year old can't just do art the whole time, so we need activities that are somewhat beach themed that everyone will love. Also if you know any songs (and I'm not talking about preschool songs, I mean actual songs) we could play, please tell me. We already have all the Disney songs and Grease and all.

Thanks



Answer
Find beach themed items here...

http://www.orientaltrading.com/ui/browse/processRequest.do?requestURI=getHomePageCR&BP=38&siteID=v3P%2A4AX5v9Y-75NykdobFhkk1LdtJ1T44w

Schedule your day to include

* gross motor activities (games, beach ball, dance, exercise, etc)

* art

* snack

* music

* story time (read books about the beach)

* quiet activities (sand & sand toys; water & water toys; puzzles, etc)

Do a search on Google for beach themed birthday parties and find ideas for games and such.

Party ideas for 13 year olds?




Cockatoo


I'm having a birthday party this year and I'm turning 13 (well duh!!!) except I was wondering, any ideas for a party? I am not girly and am not into clothes, hair, shopping and all that kind of stuff. I'm quite sporty and like adventure kind of stuff. I was thinking of a water themed party at my house with a big water-balloon war anda slip-n-slide thin go. What do you think? By the way, I don't have the most money in the world so it can't be anything to eccentric. Also, how many people should invite? What food should I have, including the cake!!!?
Thanks xxx



Answer
here are some of the things Ive done for birthdays : Swimming and a meal.
Bowling then shopping then a takeaway and sleepover.
Fancy dress party.
Meal with friends then Dvd night in (:
Garden campout and garden party.
For my 13th I Had a limo ride around the towns and then came home and we camped in my garden had hot chocolate, pizza, candles, chocolate fountain(A bowel of melted chocolate and things to dip is just as good if you dont have this)
For my 10th birthday we did swimming and bowling and then a limo ride.
Themed parties are always fun :D

.. I think seeing as your sporty you should do something along the lines of what you were thinking, There are loads of activities you can do like, Go Karting, High rope challenges, all sound really fun :) Or you could just have the water thing at your house, If its outsidey I'd have a BBQ with things like hot-dogs and burgers and then little snacks like crisps and biscuits.. Then You could have a few people sleepover do face masks, nails and girly things whilst watching DVDs.. At my latest birthday we bought some Chinese lanterns really cheap from the Internet and let them go when it was dark after writing messages on them, It was really nice :)

Hope that helped :D ..

3 year old birthday party?




Proud Momm


My daughter will be turning 3 and we've began to think about birthday preparations. Were just planning a small get together at home with only close family, but she is having the hardest time deciding on what to do her party in lol. She loves the Little Einstein's, Olivia The Pig, The Backyardigans, The Wonder Pets, Dora and Diego, and so on....she is driving me nuts wanting all of them and of course she doesn't get that it can be just one lol. How did you decide on a birthday party theme once your toddler got old enough to tell you what her or she wanted?

Its just going to be cake, ice cream, and gifts from family..nothing major because were taking her to an indoor water park as her gift from us. I know that a party theme isn't a "big deal", but still, I want her to feel involved.
We've been looking at decorations and characters online..maybe it would help if I took her to an actual party store. Thanks.

What to do for my Birthday party?




Bridget


okay so in just less than a month (in June) i will be turning 15 years old and i want to throw a party for me and my friends. the age range is from maybe 14 (but i dont think so)more like 15 to 16 or 17 and it's both guys and girls.
but what i need is ideas for what to do.
i need:
somewhere we could go
things to do
stuff to eat
movies
music
and any other fun stuff we can do to have an awesome time

and remember these are teenagers, so no immature activites and no too mature activities. also it's both guys and girls so no spa nites or sleep overs or girly things... we've already got that part planned.
try to help keep these things cheep and if u could include costs it would be great.
thanx for any help :)



Answer
My friend had a picnic in the park for her birthday. It's not too expensive and uber fun!

Place: Any park will do. If possible, try to get one with a playground and playing equipment. Your friends will have a lot of fun climbing all over stuff if they can, no matter what the ages are! Before you just show up for the party, be sure that you don;t need to rent it out or anything. The last thing you want on your special day is another party there too.

What to do: Sky's the limit. Look up some fun outdoor games online, such as different ways to play tag or hide and seek. Or, just bring a basket ball along. If the park you choose has a water spigot available (most do. usually found near the water fountains) slip-n'-slides make for a great summer party. Another idea is to tell your friends to bring water guns and ballons for a water war. Just make sure your invitations mention that they will get wet (BTW, do NOT wear white if you do this).

What to eat: Again, sky's the limit. What my friend did was request that everyone bring something to the party, like chips, sandwiches, soda, ect. Then her family supplied burgers and, of course, cake. However, since it's a summer party, be sure to bring the ice cream in a cooler is it doesn't melt. Also, check to make sure that the park you choose has a bricket you can use to cook any meat you want to eat.

Music: A battery operated boom box is a great way to crank up the tunes! Just make sure that it doesn't get wet. If you have a friend with a good taste in CDs, ask him/her to bring a few CDs. Also, you can;t go wrong with just going with the radio setting!

Movies: If the park you choose is close to your house, you can invite everyone over after your done at the park for the movie. I probably don;t have the same taste as you or your friends, so I can't recommended anything. However, ask your friends what kind of stuff they like to watch. For example, a lot of my friends like to watch anime, so an anime movie would be a good idea.

15 is a very special year, so I hope your birthday is a blast! Hope this helps! Happy (early) Birthday!!!

(estimated cost:
burgers (or other entre)+ cake and ice cream+ park rental+ party favors= I'd say about $200? That's just a guess though)

<3 bubbles
I t also is a sleepover so i need better advise!!!!!
WHAT KIND OF FOODS AND DRINKS, GAMES,ACTIVITTIES,JUST SOMETHIN FUN



Answer
i think it would be really fun to have a "hollywood" themed party.
Send out star shaped invitations similar to the stars on the walk of fame, with each person's name on it.

Tell your guests to dress in their most glamorous clothes and lay out a red carpet or a sheet.. or even just sprinkle little gold stars over the entry way.

Serve delicate finger food and fake cocktails and non alcoholic champagne.

Here are some ideas for games:

There are many elements to any good party â atmosphere, food and guest list among them â but party games are by far the most fun. These Hollywood party games are sure to be crowd-pleasers:

âAnnnnd Cut!â Hollywood Party Game

Prior to the party, write down several different movies onto slips of paper, and put the slips of paper into a hat or bowl. Have the guests pair up, and choose one pair to be âactorsâ first. The âactorsâ have to choose a movie from out of the hat, and act out a scene. The other players have to guess which movie is being acted out, with the first person to guess being the next person to âactâ with their partner. The game continues until all pairs have had a chance to be âactorsâ.

âFamous One Linersâ Hollywood Party Game

This Hollywood party game is a great one for guests to test out their movie knowledge. Prior to the party, write down famous lines from movies the guests will know. Gather the guests in a group, and one at a time read out each movie quote. The first person to call out the correct answer gets a point. To make this a little harder, for an extra point have them name the actor, actress or character who said it. Once all the quotes have been called out, the party guest with the most points is named the winner. Using Hollywood party games as a starting point, itâs easy to plan a Hollywood party. Itâll truly be a night worth remembering!

17th birthday party ideas?




viccv


For my 16th birthday I had a house party and a bunch of people I didn't know showed up and everyone was really drunk. It was a fun time but needless to say I can't have a house party again.
What can I do for my 17th which is similar?
I don't wanna do something like bowling or the spa cuz first of all it's not exciting, second of all it costs $$$



Answer
Bonfire Party - For a budget-friendly bash, consider a bonfire celebration. Limit the menu to foods that can be cooked on a stick, and transform the garage into a dancing area.

Fear Factor Party - Set up an obstacle course, and design your own food challenges with platters of chunky, meat-flavored baby food, slices of head cheese and souse, and heaping bowls of delicacies from your local ethnic grocery store.
Spa Party - Stock up on manicure, pedicure, and facial supplies, and indulge your teen and her friends with a little pampering. For an extra-special treat, hire a professional to do an in-home spa party and treat the guests to makeovers.

Have a karaoke competition
Lip sync to music with close friends
Make a group music video and post it on YouTube
Throw mud at each other (I don't suggest this one!) and then take funny photos (Author's note - maybe a whipped cream fight?). File this one under 'outdoor activities.'
Have a Silly String fight. Silly String comes in spray canisters. Look at a toy store or party shop.
Hire a DJ, rent a party tent or a hall for dancing. Add mylar balloons or balloon bouquets.
For a laugh, rent a bounce house or bouncy castle (Try an online search for Party Rentals)
Set up a back yard carnival with homemade games and party favor prizes
In warmer weather, go camping, have a BBQ and a water balloon fight!
Small budget? Rent a good movie, bake and eat what you make!
Supply disposable cameras! "When you develop the pictures after the party, you are sure to get a good laugh," says one teen. As an alternative, guests could bring their digital cameras.
Spray each others hair with colored hair sprays. Make crazy hairstyles with colored hair gel.
Try some face painting, then go shopping as a group.

Pool Party
Fun swimming pool party theme ideas - complete party planning ideas with decoration, invitations, games, party favor and activity ideas for teen pool parties.
Pool party ideas

Mystery Dinner
Crazy and fun! The teens are served a crazy dinner - and the fun is they don't know exactly what they are ordering until it comes out of the kitchen. By the third round they have started to figure out the clues and finally get something to eat.

Restaurant
Take them to a nice restaurant or for more fun a Japanese steakhouse where they cook the food in front of you, or reserve a private room in the restaurant.

Music Videos
Borrow several video cameras and let the kids make crazy videos of themselves dancing, singing to karaoke or just being themselves! Edit and then make a DVD for each party guest.

Chocolate fountain Simple idea, but teenagers love it! Set out long toothpicks and bowls of strawberries, marshmallows, fruit, graham crackers, Twinkies (our favorite!), rice krispie treats or anything that can be dipped in chocolate (which is pretty much everything!) This is fun, festive and a real treat! Just add music and dancing.

Where should I have an Ultimate Super Sweet 16 Dance Party in Atlanta, GA?




skyyizaqtp


Ok, so my birthday is in September, and it would be really nice to have an upstairs (for adults) and a downstairs (for teens), as well as a separate room downstairs for people to put all my gifts in. Also, what are your suggestions on attire? I want to have a semi-formal party, but I want to be the most dressed up. So, when people enter, they automatically know that, "BAM! That's the birthday girl!!!" LOL :) I was thinking of maybe doing a semi-formal black & white attire, with me being the only one wearing pink; that way, I will be easily distinguished from everyone else. And as far as DJs...does anyone know of any good ones or where to contact them? I want them to be able to set the party off, because I'm not really the type of person that will just go in front of everyone and be like, "WHOOO! LET'S DANCE EVERYONE!" Ya know, like I want the DJ to be a real party starter and actually be good at what they do! I'm not trying to be arrogant about this; I just want to have FUN! :D I also want for there to be those club lights that flash around at night whereever there is a club, as well as a disco ball. I can get the disco ball, but do you think the DJ would be able to provide his own lights? Like, what makes a DJ good better than the rest? Oh yeah! I can't forget about the food! ^_^ Lol, who should I cater? And where should I get the cake from, as well as invitations? So yeah, also I would L O V E to hear/read about your own parties & also suggestions/ideas for my special day. It will be be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks SO much! <3

Do you know what town Miss Daisy lived in from the movie Driving Miss Daisy?




laizydaizy





Answer
Atlanta, Georgia

It is 1948 and Mrs. ("Miss") Daisy Werthan, a 72-year-old widow, lives in Atlanta, Georgia, alone except for an African American housemaid named Idella. After a driving mishap where her Chrysler automobile is totaled, Miss Daisyâs son Boolie tells her she will have to get a chauffeur because no insurance company will insure her. She refuses, but Boolie is determined to find her one. Meanwhile, she is stuck at home and is unable to run errands or visit friends.

Boolie finds a man named Hoke Colburn, who had driven for a local judge until he died, and he decided to remain in the area rather than accompany the widow when she moved away.

Miss Daisy at first refuses to let Hoke drive her, going so far as to walk to the local Piggly Wiggly. It is revealed that her reluctance to be driven around is because she is embarrassed. People might think she is either too old to drive, or so well off that she can afford a driver.

Daisy comes to accept Hoke and the fact that she needs him to drive her around. Miss Daisy finds out that Hoke cannot read, so she teaches him how to read. Over the years Hoke drives Daisy in a succession of vehicles including a Hudson Commodore and a series of Cadillacs. When it became time to trade in the car for a new vehicle, Hoke often purchases the previous car and uses it as his personal vehicle.

Miss Daisy has Hoke drive her to her brother's 90th birthday party in Mobile, Alabama. Hoke reveals, during the trip, that it is the first time that he has left his home state of Georgia. During their trip from Atlanta to Mobile, Daisy realizes in several circumstances that Hoke's race affects how others treat him; her eyes are further opened to the social aspects of racial prejudice. As Daisy and Hoke spend time together, she gains appreciation for Hoke's many skills.

One day in 1963, while watching television in the kitchen, Idella dies. Miss Daisy is saddened because Idella was very close to her. She and her family attend the funeral, being the only white people in attendance at the funeral.

The racism and prejudice that permeated American society is explored in this movie, especially when Hoke is questioned by a pair of racist highway patrolmen, who also make out-of-earshot comments about Miss Daisy being an "old Jew woman" and Hoke being an "old nigger". After her synagogue is bombed Daisy realizes that she, as a Jew, is subject to may of the same prejudices as Hoke. But in the course of the movie, American society undergoes radical changes, and Miss Daisy soon attends a dinner in which Dr. Martin Luther King gives a speech. She initially invites Boolie to the dinner, but he declines, and suggests that Miss Daisy invite Hoke. Miss Daisy does not mention the invitation to Hoke until he is driving her to the dinner. Her reluctance to invite Hoke underlines the passive racism that often goes unnoticed when compared with more open and aggravated racism.

A few years later, Hoke comes to her house to find her in a confused and agitated state. He calls Boolie and tells him his mother is upset. Her son arranges for her to enter a retirement home.

Two years later, in 1973, the family home is sold, and Hoke has given up driving. Hoke is now 85 and Miss Daisy is 97. Boolie and Hoke meet at Miss Daisy's house one final time before the new owner takes possession, and they drive over to the retirement home to visit Miss Daisy. The movie ends with Miss Daisy telling Hoke that he's her best friend, and Hoke feeding Miss Daisy a piece of pie.

My birthday is @ the end of july and i need party ideas.im turning 15. Im having a sleepover cus its kinda a tradition that i do. but i don't know what theme i should have this year or what i should do there. Its a small sleepover with like 4 or 5 of us there. i need game ideas,theme ideas, things to do @ the party and etc.
i like acting,singin,and fashion so that can help

p.s. it can't cost alot of money <3
thanx



Answer
Check out this theme idea!

Sweet Dreams Slumber Party

Invitations: Pick a theme for the invitation that you like. Sports? Love heart? Teddy bears? Clouds? Smiley Faces? Guitars? Horses? Rainbows?
Whatever you choose for the invitation, carry the design elements and/or colors through for your whole party, from party ware and centerpieces to balloons and food to give it a coordinated, cohesive look. For example, if you choose a Teddy Bear theme for your invitation for example, invite your guests to bring their favourite bear to the party, have bears holding serving dishes on the food table, etc.

Decorations: Welcome your guests with a sign created around the theme used for the invitations. Even a custom-created banner by you is cool!
Are lots of fancy decorations really necessary when the whole roomâs filled with sleeping bags, pillows, and blankets? Probably not. But favors and activities are important. Why? Needless to say, there will be little or no sleeping at this party, so make sure you have lots of diversions on handâ¦polish for toenails, makeup for face-painting, and lots of disposable cameras on hand to record the eveningâs mischief and events for posterity! Load up a boombox or multiple CD player with favourite tunes. Give your Mom and Dad earplugs and tell them to go to sleep. (After all, they have to be up early to feed your darling friends.) Eventually, everyone WILL drop off for a snooze.

Food: Have a table set up with snack foods and beverages so everyone can have a midnight feast! By the time everyone wakes up you can have a gourmet breakfast spread out and ready. You can do the cooking yourself, ask your parents to help or have the breakfast catered and served or just prepared and delivered -- it all depends on your budget! Your breakfast fare may include any or all of the following: fresh fruit, waffles, pancakes, omelets and eggs, sausage, bacon, ham, hot and cold cereals, fresh breads, pastries, bagels, muffins, whipped cream, cream cheese, crepes, quiche, cinnamon toast, tea, coffee, hot chocolate, juices, or anything else you can think of that would suit their fancy.

Games: Charades and other games. Ask around for favourites.
Camp it upâ¦dress up in hats and masks and more (see below) for a picture taking photo opportunity that will make a scrapbook and/or video to remember.
Spa nightâ¦have someone come and teach make-up tips, do each otherâs hair, nails, and review fashion magazines for the latest trends.
Dancinâ in the Darkâ¦music brings out the best in people. Check out the latest dance moves and teach each other.
Boy Talkâ¦like youâre not going to do that anyway!

Capture your party from your guests' point of view with single-use cameras. Leave one on each table and a basket by the door as people can drop them in as they leave! Think of the fun you'll have when the pictures come back.

Have fun at your slumber party!

HOW CAN I DO A HELLO KITTY THEMED PARTY!!?




Brit Heenn


okkay soo im turning 13! i know it sounds super kiddish but idrc i love hello kitty! i want to go very cheap not spend alot of moola at all. i want it themed and all i could come up with is getting red and white balloons. btw im going to the mall then maybe a movie and then a sleepover! PLEASE HELP!!


Answer
If you want to hand out invitations, then you can make them on your computer
Link:http://printable-cards.gotfreecards.com/designer.html?type=self
or by using regular paper and drawing hello kitty with decorations on all of them. Since it's going to be your birthday, you're gonna need a cake right? Make your own cake, it's a lot cheaper than buying one. Choose your favorite kind of cake (chocolate, red velvet, lemon, devil's food cake, etc.) from Betty Crocker or whatever brand you like, choose an icing that would go good with it, and buy some hello kitty decor for the cake from walmart or wherever (you can probably find candles, birthday cake topper, figurines, icing decorations, etc. for a cheap price) Or you can just get a hello kitty cake pan. You can even make a hello kitty piñata, too.
Link: http://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/hello-kitty-piata
If you want to go all out, get hello kitty paper plates, napkins, cups, party lights, and balloons. They shouldn't cost much. Hope this helps and good luck:)

what to do on a birthday party?

Q. im turning 23 this june. i need ideas on how to make my birthday a blast. usually i just take my friends out for a meal. any unique ideas? im thinking of a trip somewhere, maybe at the beach etc., but what do we do there? also if theres any idea, it would be much appreciated :)


Answer
Hip Hop Theme
For those who love to dance, a hip hop theme will make a memorable party. Invitations that resemble backstage passes are simple to create with a computer and a photo program. First create a rectangle that is 4 inches by 7 inches, and fill it in with any color that will complement the party color scheme. Then, add a square picture of the guest of honor to the top of it. Type in the important party information below the picture, and be sure to tell guests to dress in their best hip hop clothes. Baggy shirts, baggy pants and tennis shoes will make a great outfit for a hip hop themed party. On the side of the invitation, create a strip that runs lengthwise from top to bottom and fill it in with the color black. On that strip type the words "Backstage Pass," and turn the words sideways to make sure it fits. Using white lines in different widths, create a bar code and place it at the top of the black strip to make the invitation look more authentic. Invitations can be delivered in a lanyard, so guests can wear their backstage passes around their necks. As guests arrive give them sunglasses, fake gold chains and fake gold rings to wear throughout the night as party favors.

Decorating for a hip hop themed party is simple. Hang large posters featuring various hip hop artists on the walls. Cardboard cut outs of stars also can be used to add to the ambiance. Hip hop has gone through many transformations over the years, and includes things like graffiti and break dancing. Incorporating various parts of hip hop into the decor will not only complement the theme, but provide additional entertainment for the party guests as well. On one wall, hang large sheets of butcher paper and have cups filled with Sharpie markers in various colors. Allow guests to use these markers to create their own graffiti throughout the night. Hip hop stars like elegance, so the decor should resemble a party stars would attend. Use strands of white Christmas lights as the main source of lighting, and consider having a disco ball hanging over the dance area. Purchase white balloons, streamers and table linens to decorate the area. Serve food in bowls that look like crystal, and allow guests to drink beverages from champagne glasses. If the budget allows, have an open bar for guests who choose to drink alcoholic beverages. For additional table decorations, scatter fake diamonds on the table top along with candles on crystal candle sticks.

Hire a DJ or have a friend or family member control the music for the evening. In addition to popular club music, include hits from the past. Guests will enjoy hearing songs from artists like Michael Jackson, Bel Biv Devoe and TLC. For added entertainment, hire a professional to teach guests various break dancing moves or hold a dance competition and allow guests to challenge each other to see who has the best moves.

80's Theme
An 80's theme is not only an easy theme to create, but it is one guests are sure to enjoy. In addition to the important party information on the invitations, be sure to tell guests to dress in their best 80's costumes. Women can wear skirts with leggings under them and belly shirts. Men can wear jean jackets and a concert T-shirts. For party favors, give guests glow necklaces and fluorescent hats as they arrive at the party.

Decorations should complement the decade as well. Balloons, streamers and table linens in fluorescent pink, yellow and green will instantly give the room an 80's look. Black lights will help set off the fluorescent colors. In addition to the party favors given at the door, set bowls of jelly bracelets, slap bracelets and glow sticks around the room. Not only will it add to the decor, but the guests will have fun playing with them as well. Hang posters of popular stars from the 80's around the room, and have a TV set up to play old music videos with the sound muted. A fog machine will add a great special effect to the dance area as well. For entertainment, play various songs from the 80's and let guests dance the night away.

Toga Party
A toga party is a fun theme for a 23rd birthday bash. Send invitations telling guests a toga is required. Guests can purchase togas from a costume store or they can easily make one out of a sheet. Keep extra sheets on hand in case guests arrive who are not in proper toga attire. Keep decorations to a minimum, with streamers, balloons and table linens in coordinating colors. A TV can be set up to play the movie Animal House in the background to get guests in the mood for a wild party. Keep food to a minimum as well; in fact, simply serving chips and dip is fine. Alcohol, preferably kegs of beer, is the main focus of a toga party and should be randomly placed throughout the party area. To entertain guests, make sure there is a large dance area, and turn the music up so the guests can enjoy the night.

i'm having a birthday party for my mom 80 years old , i don't have any money i'm unemployed?

Answer
I wouldn't have them yell surprise. Just being there would be good enough. if you don't have enough money, i would just buy a cake and on the invitation say "if you can make it to the party (and pay) then I'll supply the cake!
