Okay so I'm turning 15 on June 15th and my parents said I can go anywhere I want, but I do some of the same stuff every year. I want to do something unique that I have never done before. Please help. I want my guest to have as much fun as I will :D

How about an Amusment Park or Water Park? Or Paint Ball? Or Mini-Golf? Or a Spa Day? with a BBQ or Pizza's & Ice Cream Sundaes to Follow? Whatever you decide-Have a Fun Birthday! : D
My birthday is July 12 and I am turning 15 and have no idea what to do. Can anyone help? It needs to be fun for my boyfriend and for my best friend.

Try soaking t-shirts in water, fold or crumple them up and store in Ziplock bags in the freezer. Have a contest on who can get the t-shirt on first. Or fill a lot of water balloons, take them to a park or back yard, add a few water guns/super soakers and have an Easter egg hunt style water balloon hunt and water fight.
My birthday is in 10 days and I have no idea what to do! I'll be 15. I can spend about $400 or $500 dollars and guys will be there as well. The usual pizza party isn't really my taste. Are there any ideas that can be fun for guys and girls? All ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Best b-day idea I've heard about is picking an "event", and making your party about volunteering at the event. After, pizza and soda would be a great way to share celebrations, congratulations, appreciations!
What about a hamburger/hotdog cookout with smores for dessert? You could go out in groups in a scavenger hunt - make it fun, like going to various spots and using their phones take pictures of landmarks with the group standing in front, getting a receipt from a meal at a teen spot in town...etc.
I'm turning 15 on December 11th and, as you probably figured out, it's in the colder time of year. I've run out of ideas on what to do. I want my birthday to be fun and exciting yet fit for older kids you know? Anything would help! Thanks for reading.
I'm going to be turning 15 in March. I don't know what to do because I have friends that are girls and boys and I want to do something good that can go into the night that both can attend. But I don't have any ideas so if you could help and it needs to be not too expensive.
Thank you x
Bowling and skating are two activities that are economical and appeal to both sexes
What do your friends enjoy doing? Movies? Video games? Roller skating? Trampolines? Museums? Science center? Painting? Pottery? Pizza? Indoor mini golf?
March is a challenge to plan an outside event if you are in a weather challenged city like I am, so something indoors would be best.
Once you have a budget, you can start planning. Make sure you have cake or cupcakes or your favorite treat budgeted in to the day! Enjoy and early birthday blessings!
Do you have any arcade spots, bowling alley or a place to shoot pool would be fun for gender neutral party.
Lots of snacks, sodas and a yummy cake or cupcakes are the key to the food! Being yourself and enjoying your friends' company completes the successful recipe! Just relax and enjoy!!
I'm Rose and I'm turning 15 on August 14. I know that is is a long time away, but I'm unsure what theme it should because I always invite my family.
I want to know what type of cake I should have because I want it to be a two layer cake?I'm turning 15 in April and I don't know what to do. I don't have any friends to celebrate it with so no parties. Any ideas?
I'm Grant and I really don't have any clue what I should do for my 15th birthday. It's in 2 days and I'm not really a social person among my peers.
I prefer quiet birthdays, but I don't know what I should do. Any brilliant propositions?I am gonna be 15 on July 23rd and I want to know if there is anything good to do with my mates on my birthday for the day. I just want it to be good so that I don't have any arguments.
Go swimming or to a pool. It will be warm enough to do that.
you can go swimming or to the park
you can go to an open mic or karaoke
depending on how many of you there are you can simply go to the moview
it would be fun to be able to go on a beach holiday, all of you go off for a day somewhere cool
My birthday is March 21st. I want a big party, but it needs to be inexpensive and a great time! I like the whole glow in the dark party theme, but too many people have been doing that lately so I want something similar, but different. I also don't know any great places that would fit in my category because my house wouldn't really fit that many people and I cant have it outside because of the weather any ideas?

Hey bel I wanted to know the same thing because my birthday is also on March 21.
My birthday is also March 21st woooh! but I have no idea what to do maybe go to your favourite restaurant or something.
My birthday is March 21 first also! I live in Pennsylvania (close to New Jersey) and I'm going to Funplex with my friends. Depending on where you live, you could maybe to an indoor park, or even go laser-tagging. Happy early birthday to you guys!
Well for my opinion I think gathering alot of people is too much to handle especially with ur house being small so what I think u should do is have like 5 to at least 10 people over also that's less damge to ur home but its up to u
My birthday falls a few days after Thanksgiving and I want to have whoever is around from my friend group (potentially 15 people, girls and guys) over for a dinner party. I was thinking we could have appetizers, then a main meal, then a dessert assortment, and then take pictures, but I am worried that this isn't enough for a party.
I'm turning 15 and I have a twin brother. We both are inviting boys and girls and we don't know what to do. We love adventure and just wanna have a blast and I'm trying to get some people to spend the night.
Any ideas for what to do for the party?I am turning 15 on December 17th and it is only a week away and I still don't know what I am going to do. I am not having a party and if I end up doing anything with a friend it would be on the 15th.
I thought about doing a painting with a twist, but I looked at the paintings they are doing on the date that I need and I didn't like them. Now I have no idea what I am going to do. Please help!I am turning 15 next month and I don't know what I should do!
I'm turning 15 soon and I have no idea what I want to do! I don't have a lot of money so it has to be something fairly cheap. I want something that's not girly because I have my guy friends that I want to invite too.
I'm not really into the whole bowling, movie, big party, or swimming kind of things because me and my friends are kinda nerds. Yet I don't want it to be really boring. Any ideas would be really helpful. Thanks.I don't know what you normally do for fun, but bowling might be fun. I have seen groups of all ages bowl and have fun. If you don't know how to bowl, it is sometimes even more fun.
Sinse you said your kind of nerdy maybe have a video game party
I'm turning 15 and last year I invited the whole school to my party, well not the whole school. None of my guy friends came because they thought it would be too girly and I only had like maybe not even a group of people. Most left because it was boring. I had a really gross sweaty DJ and a rapper who was late and everybody was stuffing their face.
It wasn't till the end of my party that the rapper came and everybody started to dance. It was really stupid, but I told my dad it wasn't. Please help. By the way I only might have like 100 dollars to spend. What should I do? I don't like the park and my birthday is in May on a Friday.By Brittany
From your description of last year's party, it seems to me that you are trying too hard to impress other people. Why don't you invite two or three close friends instead of a mass of people. Then they are not likely to get bored or just come so that they can stuff their faces.
You could have a sleepover (if it is all girls) - a spa night, watch movies, play board games, have pizza. If you have both guy and girl friends, you could do pretty much the same - although boys tend to like more active stuff -- games night, a campfire with hot dogs, smores, etc. If you invite your close friends, then you shouldn't be disappointed.
When I turned 15 which was not that long ago - 8 years. My folks took me, and my two best friends to a nearby water park for the day. They dropped us off and we got to spend the whole day there.
I agree with the other posters. Make it more exclusive - just invite a few people or do the water park thing or some such. It is your party and you are the one who should enjoy it. Pizza, a movie and a sleep-over for a few true friends will work. Have fun.
I am turning 15 years old in 1 week and I have only just thought about my party! I have absolutely no idea what to do. I don't want to do something boring like bowling, laser tag, or a sleepover.
I want to do something different, but not too expensive! I was thinking of inviting 10 - 20 friends, but still not too sure. Please help! Thanks.My birthday is tomorrow and my mom wants me to think of ideas for what to do. I don't have any ideas and the things I do like are not cheap.
I like to play games and do music and make things on my computer in Photoshop and do youtube.My birthday is in 7 days and I have no idea what I want to do. I will be turning 15 and I am hoping to have both guys and girls! I am on a small budget! Any ideas?
My birthday is in 14 days and I'm turning 15. I don't want to invite too many people, but I also want more than 3 or 4 people. I have no clue what to do.
I've thought of Hawaiian Falls and Six Flags, but sometimes they can be expensive. I want this birthday to be fun and memorable. Please help!What about a camping trip. Great memories are made with good friends. You could do some fishing, hiking, etc!
My birthday is the 13th of March and I am going to have a sleep over. Our Wi-Fi is currently down and I feel my plans on what to do in the sleepover are limited. What do I do?

I want to celebrate my 15th birthday with a few of my friends, but I don't want to have a party. I want to do something different to what people would normally do. Any ideas?
By Chante
Perhaps you could do some sort of charity work? For instance, perhaps you could volunteer at an animal shelter to play with the dogs and cats for an afternoon and do some clean up. People could bring pet food for gifts.
You could follow this up with pizza, pop, and cake - maybe even at the shelter. Other alternatives might be helping out with a meal at a soup kitchen or helping pack food at a food bank. Guests could donate food items.
Or if you are particularly capable, you might work for a day or half day at a Habitat for Humanity home - painting, doing general clean up on the site, or whatever.
Or perhaps you might find a children's group that could use some help for an afternoon. If there is some sort of drop in center for underprivileged kids, perhaps you could do a party with your friends for little kids in celebration of your birthday.
With just a few friends you could go out to the movies, buy popcorn and candy, and pick a fun film. or maybe you would rather take them out to your favorite restaurant for dinner.
I am turning 15 in November, but it is right after Thanksgiving and we usually have family over that whole week. My mom saids she doesn't want like a "party" she just wants me to pick like 2 or 3 friends to do something with. I did a sleepover last year, but there wasn't much to do. My mom says she'd rather not have a sleepover because she feels we will be bored. Any ideas?
By J
You could go bowling or maybe to a water park? Or even a nice meal and cinema?Or have a sleepover and in the sleepover make your own pizzas?
You can probably go to the movies and Panda Express and maybe have a little party.
I am having a party in November and I have eight friends I want to invite. I can't have a sleepover or have it at my house because it's way too small. I really really would like some help with some ideas!
