Archives: Request: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas Archived on 10/19/2009 I'm hosting my daughter's 12th birthday party, but I don't know what to do. What should the girls do at the party? I want something low-cost but fun. Thanks. By Laurah05 Feedback: RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas Tween girls would probably have fun at a Beauty Shop Party. You could have different hair barrettes and ponytails, assortment of wild nail polishes, colognes, and lipsticks (Dollar Store). I know 12 is probably too young for real make-up, but I'm sure parents wouldn't mind for a special day. Ask them ahead of time. You could crown a beauty queen when finished. (04/16/2009) By vguy RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas Well I've gone to a lot of parties and had a lot myself, but for a twelve year old here is a fun thrifty party idea I came up with: go to the local roller rink then come home and do a sleepover. For goodie bags you could go to a custom shirt place (go to Target to get a plain white tee) and get shirts with all of the the party members names on them if it is a small group. (05/10/2009) By treehugger150 RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I run parties for children and one party I did recently was for a 12 year old girl and we made mini scrapbooks, we had a digital camera, a printer and laptop, the girls took photo's of each other crafting and enjoying themselves as well as me taking pictures of the whole group. The girls then choose pictures and made up the mini books with backing papers and peels offs and captions they felt were right for the moment. The girls had lots of fun, they each ended up with a great reminder of the day, in their party bag with a piece of cake and a few sweets, a funky pencil, rubber stamp and a little note book. All seemed to be happy. Linda Kids Get Crafty, Chesterfield, Derbyshire. UK (05/22/2009) By Crafty Linda RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas Hey well what I'm doing for my daughter's 12 year old birthday party is get the girls to go a paintball park to play some paintball (a great fun non-dangerous activity, for all ages) and after that go to a hotel and sleepover or if that is over your budget you can go back to your house and let the girls play games that you set up for them like the glow in the dark changing. Remember don't have a schedule planned because tweens like to do more things on their own. Best of luck for me and you, my daughter's birthday is coming up. Hope this helped. Sincerely, A (05/30/2009) By ak252 RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas One birthday party I had for my daughter was a scavenger hunt at the local mall. I scouted out the mall and then made a list of items the girls had to find. I limited the number of girls to 8 total and divided them into 2 groups. Each group had an adult to accompany them. Each girl was given a disposable camera and their team had to find the items on the list and take a picture of it or with it. For example, find a feather boa; try on a pair of men's size 10 shoes; etc. We then reconvened at the food court. To save some money we went after lunch and before dinner and I brought cupcakes for everyone (you could also just bring a cake). After they ate each girl received another list and $10. On the list were specific things they had to get at certain stores with the money they were given. For example, buy a $1 rock candy stick at the candy store; buy something for $2-$3 at Bath and Body Works; buy something at Limited Too/Justice under $5. These items that they purchased could be their goody bag gifts or you could mix it up and have them swap with each other. After this, my daughter was allowed to have 2 friends sleep over. The pictures were later developed and sent out with thank you cards as a memory of the party. My daughter loved this because she loves shopping. I also bought her a little tiara to wear to distinguish her as the birthday girl. By the way, the party invitations were fake "credit cards" that I self laminated. (05/30/2009) By NBAdams RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas Last year, for my daughter's 12th birthday, we did a cooking party. There was an appetizer, an entree, sides, and dessert. The girls split into 4 groups: (side 1, side 2, entree, appetizer) and cooked a dish for dinner. They were dishes from around the world like nachos, spaghetti, mango smoothies, etc. At the end, they had a great dinner. The party favors were personalized aprons with each girls name on them.

(06/06/2009) By theatrefreak728 RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas Some really great ideas for someone whose birthday is in December is: A glow in the dark scavenger hunt. You have to find the questions one at a time and answer each one, then the first to win gets a prize. The prizes can be inside a giant stocking. You can do a fill in the blank sheet with Christmas songs. (06/30/2009) By Anonymous RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas Invite all her girl friends and have a sleep over or a late pajama/movie party night. Get lots of food, blankets, comfy pillows and cushions, and games to make every one laugh and have a great time. You may choose to have the girls to makeovers on each other paint nails, and/or do hair. At the end, after games, presents, and cake, watch a movie that everyone will enjoy. If it is possible, watch it with a projector. Make sure to have plenty of food, drinks, and pop corn. Also, make it comfortable to relax with lots of pillows, cushions, and blankets.

Tyieshaka from Houston, Texas Feedback: RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas Another thing you could do is play this game called "I Never...". Each girl needs a bag of 20 M and M's. You take turns going around a circle saying things you've never done. Anyone who has done it, has to eat one of the M and M's. The person with the most M and M's left is the winner. If someone loses all of their M and M's, then they are out of the game. This is a great game to play, when everyone's just about ready to go to bed. (02/16/2008) RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas My idea for a 12th year old girl b-day party is just have fun get a disco ball and some music and dance, dance, dance. (02/17/2008) By Terry Lynn RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas Have a friendship game party. Have your friends pretend to be someone else at the party (act like them, walk like them, talk like them, dress in their clothes, etc.) sometimes that doesn't last long but it is fun when it is going on. Also, for the friendship party you could have a game show, Example: Lisa goes on the games show as Tiffany. She has to answer questions, and whoever gets the most correct answers wins. Have a music party where people form teams of four to six and get an assigned area in the room.They have a certain amount of time to create their own song, music, outfits, band name, makeup, etc. Also, for the music theme get black construction paper and cut out music notes and stick them on the wall with lyrics to your favorite songs. An animal themed party. You choose an animal ( could be your favorite animal), and make food that would go along with the animal. For goodie bags give socks, earrings, and/or little stuffed animals. Example: I chose a monkey. So I had banana splits, green crepe paper hanging from the ceiling (to make it like the jungle), in the goodie bags I gave cute, inexpensive, monkey earrings, socks, stuffed monkeys, etc. Have a mystery party. Borrow some 10-20 minute mystery books from the library and have the girls figure those out. For decorations, buy some cheap notepads and magnifying glasses and set them around the table and dim the lights. Have scavenger hunts. For food give hints for the food and have your guests guess what the food is. Example: For popcorn you might say: "This salty treat that melts in your mouth, starts out small and grows bigger." I hope these help. These are great for all ages. My friends loved them! Julie (02/24/2008) By Julie RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas You might be able to get a karaoke machine and you can sing in it! (03/02/2008) By Ansley Hawaiian It would be awesome if you had a Hawaiian party. My cousin had one and everyone loved it! She gave out plastic martini glasses filled with Smarties as a loot bag. It was so cool. (03/08/2008) By Allison RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas Let her and 4 friends sleepover at a awesome hotel or a big house. (03/16/2008) By Maggie RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas Buy in-expensive pillow cases at a craft store and buy permanent fabric pens. The girls can decorate their pillow cases and sign each others. Whenever you use the pillow case, you can read what your friends wrote and you will remember the party forever! I have done it many times and it makes me laugh to look at the ones I have from a long time ago. Here is another thought. Play flash light tag. If you don't know how to play here you go: you should play at night outdoors, everyone hides while the person with the flash light counts. The point is to get away from the flash light. To get "found" the ray from the flash light has to hit you. I know it sounds stupid but, my friends and I had a blast running away from each other. Hope it helped. (03/25/2008) By AANNAA RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas What about having a sleepover with 5 or 6 girls invited? That's what I did for my 13th party and I don't see what's wrong with one for a twelve year old. During the day, we met at the movies. We watched a movie, walked back to my house while my mum set up all the food and decorations, etc. Well, because my friends and I like to have jokes we also played pass the parcel and pin the tail on the donkey. Not sure your daughter would want that but I had tons of fun. After we had lunch and played games, we drove down to the fireworks display. After we watched that, we went home and watched TV. If your daughter has an older/younger sister/brother why don't you let them invite one friend, I did that and my sister had more fun! (03/26/2008) By Jay RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I have some ideas: spa pool make up movie marathon computer blasters bedroom busters karaoke scrapbook beading knitting (03/30/2008) By Victoria RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I have a good idea for a birthday party. Have a party in the house and play spin the bottle, and other great games and just have fun. That is what I did for my 12th birthday party. And who doesn't love cake? Have a small cake for many people and go out for dinner for your birthday. (03/30/2008) RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas In my opinion nothing beats a good old fashioned sleep over. The girls always seem to love them! (04/15/2008) By Sherrie RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas A Pajama Jam is a good theme for a sleepover. You can also have them come in their pajamas. This helps get the party started and no time is wasted getting dress. They can go home in their pajamas and this saves water and time in the bathroom. You can try decorating t-shirts or, have someone come and give manicures after they do their own pedicures. Make some taffy from the marshmallows while watching a movie and don't forget to make the Rice Krispie treats later that night. Good luck! (05/19/2008) By ms promise RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas One idea is to give everyone 5 dollars and head to the dollar store. Then everyone has 5 minutes to pick out their own stuff to make a funny costume. Then when you get back home, everyone puts it on! Whoever has the funniest, best, coolest, silliest, etc. costume wins a prize. Everyone gets to keep their stuff. No use for gift baggies, and it is much cheaper. (05/28/2008) By ummm meeee RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas Here are some ideas for a 12 year old's party. Get a group of friends together, all girls or girls and boys, your choice. You could either like have a spa/sleepover night if it's a bunch of girls, or if you want have a movie night, order pizza and rent some movies if it's mixed. You could also do this for a girl's sleepover party too. Hope it helped. (05/31/2008) By Me RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas Be really inventive, try a theme or just have a classic slumber party. How about like an underwater theme or a tropical theme. My mate recently had an end of year tropical themed party. She got out a giant swimming pool, served classic Jamaican foods and we lit Tiki torches. We even hired sand! But it doesn't have to be as big as that. You can just do something mad. Have a dress up party and all come as something daft. As long as you're all having loads of fun, it doesn't really matter what theme you have. Just use your head though and always know what is going to happen at every second, the worst possible thing to happen is get bored. (06/02/2008) RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I just had this fantastic idea for a birthday party "for all ages". Have an award show. Everyone should have contests such as, best dare, fastest changer, heaviest sleeper, craziest prank, or most insane outfit. At the end of the night decorate a room with red carpets and big lights. Get everyone to dress up in their most over-the-top outfits and crazy make-up, even lads. Have somebody such as a younger sister or brother, a parent or a neighbour to be a host. Print certificates to certify the winners of each award. It will be a really good night and everyone will enjoy it. Just make sure that everybody gets some sort of award so nobody is left out. Even if it is something like best listener to watch a movie. It will be an absolutely amazing party. Have fun! (06/02/2008) Dear Catlyin OK, I had a chocolate party for my 13th birthday party. It was featured in the American Girl Book "Snooze A Plaooza". It was a blast. But anyway, if you want an "Americas Next Top Model Party" that would be way fun. I would recommend recording all the shows possible of any cycle. You could get fun ideas from all the shows. Watching these recorded tapes would be a good "quiet it down, we're trying to sleep" from your parents, activity. You all could give makeovers and make commercials of your favorite beauty product. Hold challenges similar to the ones on the show and have a photo shoot! You can also go online and research foods that are healthy for your skin to serve at the party as sort of a attention getter (though that's not the right word). Well, I hope this helps you! (06/03/2008) By Sarah RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas My niece is a shop-a-holic and when she turned 13 she had a shopping party. We made up store signs on poster board and set up her basement like a mall. Everyone was given $50 in play money to shop and a gift bag. It had an arcade (own video games) a jewelry store (from $1 dollar/$5 below store), music store, book store, food court, photo booth (digital camera/printer), $1 store, T-shirt shop ($1 store t-shirts with designs we painted on them or transfers), craft shop, a nail salon, and a Build-a-Bear store (kit ordered online). Parents were cashiers and worked the nail salon. Everyone had a great time. (06/03/2008) By Lynda RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas My mom planned the best party...a scavenger hunt at our local mall. It was a blast! Let me know if you want any details. Everyone loved it! (06/17/2008) By Emily 11 year bday party Great games to play are: treasure hunt limbo dance off karaoke pinata or truth or dare Chinese whispers water balloon toss water gun fight movie act (play out a scene off a movie) egg toss water balloon fight (06/23/2008) By jaidipie RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas You should take 12 of her best friends to a vacation destination of her choice (ex. Maui, London, France, etc.) for a week. I took my daughter and her friends to Maui. We stayed at Four Seasons and rented a yacht. Of course, you don't have to stay at Four Seasons, or rent a yacht, it will be fun anyway. But remember, your daughter only turns 12 once, so make the party special. (06/28/2008) By Francisca RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I don't like to paint my nails, or eat unhealthy food like pizza. On my birthday my mom invited my family (uncles, aunts, cousins) to my house, we shared a cake and a great picnic. My birthday party was the best! I did not have to get crazy. I really enjoyed being with my mom and family. My mom did not have to spend a lot of money. I have a lot of friends, but I preferred to spend my birthday only with my family. I am saving money to go to Italy for my sixteen Birthday. (07/07/2008) By Natis RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I am having my daughter's party and having chocolate fondue. The theme is going back to the past when she was born. She has a cake with her picture of her as a baby. Maybe yours could be similar? Hope I could help! (07/07/2008) By SaaraC RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I had a mystery party and we made mystery invitations. Someone stole some jewels and we had to answer some really cool clues. My friends thought it was the best. You could have popcorn, a ton of snacks, and have them dress up as weird characters. Then have pizza for dinner, always fun, with a pillow fight before bed and cinnamon rolls for breakfast. I hope this helped. (07/16/2008) By cool cat RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I have planned many parties for my daughter and the ones that always get the best reviews are those that are thrown at home. We had a costume party one year where everyone came dressed in costume. I converted our backyard into a haunted house, played games, and ate goulish but tasty foods. For my daughter's 7th birthday, we had a Seven Splendors party, where guests arrived in pajamas, and upon arrival were given terry cloth turbans, facials, manicures, pedicures, karaoke, and specialty cake. Most recently, we had a red carpet Oscar party, where we set up a red carpet with runners and had a videographer and multiple photographers taking pictures of guests being interviewed as they came dressed as their favorite celebrities. We played trivia games where the questions were based on the celebrities careers. These parties are still talked about today. These are memories that consistently bring a smile to my daughter's face, making all the hard work worth it. Hope these ideas help. Have fun (07/29/2008) By Mom SOS RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I was watching The Take Home Chef, and got an idea of a fun topping to put on ice cream. You tape 2 long sticks/rods wrapped in tinfoil on to your oven and cover the floor with newspaper. You melt a bowl of sugar so it almost looks like caramel. Then you take a spoon and dip it in the sugar so in starts to drip, than fling the sugar on the rods so it drips down like spider webs. Let it cool or wait for it to be good enough to gather in your hands. Gather it into a loose ball and put it on your ice cream. WALA you have a sugar icecream topping! (08/07/2008) By KT RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas My problem was that I wanted a sleepover but could only have 5 girls like usual, and I didn't want to leave out my new friends. So I thought of a great idea: 6 p.m.= chinese order in 4 big meals for 11 friends, have a pot luck (when you take a bit of each food). 7 30 p.m.= make ice cream sundaes and gossip! 9 p.m.= night swim with music (which only works if you have a pool) if you have no pool than you could just have a dance party inside, or rent a movie. Then the normal 5 out of 11 girls stay while the others get picked up at 10 p.m. (08/26/2008) By Sarah RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas Also, If you don't have a theme- don't worry, you don't need one. I never have an exact theme and my parties have been great. If you really want a theme just say the theme is dance party, and play music, or a candy theme, and give out big candy bags! Have fun! (08/26/2008) By Sarah RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I just went to my BFF's birthday and it was the best party I've ever been to! I live in Queensland so we went by barge to Magnetic Island and we went tubing, bussed around, had nacho's, went rock skipping, swam in the sea, went boogie boarding, and this was all done from 9:40am-4:10pm. The barge takes 1hr each way, but the ferry only takes about 15mins. We had to take the barge because we took the car as well. (09/01/2008) By Kaitlyn RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas This year with be my daughter's 3rd annual Bunco Birthday Bash! It has been a big hit with all the girls since Zoe had her 10th birthday. This year it will be her 12th and all her friends look forward to it every year. The bunco gifts end up being the party favors, so each girl some how wins something whether it is most bunco's, or loudest screams, or most win's, etc. I fix my daughter's favorite dinner, and last year even made a dice cake. It's their "Girls Night Out", just like Mom! If you are really crazy then have them all sleep over, last year we had 16 that slept, I mean, stayed over. Hope this helps! (09/14/2008) By Susan RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas For my daughter's birthday (10th, I think), we hired a lady that advertised on the web who came with a big bouquet of balloons for the bday girl and a teddy bear. She gave the kids henna spray tattoos with glitter. She had books that they could look through and pick out the one they wanted. It was so much fun. My son even decided he wanted one too. We had music playing so they were dancing and waiting their turn. Another party (11th?) we had at a bowling center. My daughter went to Target and got cool plastic drinking cups in different shapes and colors and filled them up with candy. Both parties were a lot of fun. (09/19/2008) By Jen B RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas Some great ideas are: red carpet (teen choice awards) helicopter ride BBQ party and when it gets dark, fireworks Arabian night squirt gun medieval cartoon Hawaiian candy blacklight Italian Broadway laser tag (09/20/2008) By RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas Hey about birthday ideas, you could even do karaoke or hoola hoops! (09/26/2008) By JJ RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas We rented i-Nail machine for my daughter's birthday party. Girls can do their nails by themselves using the automatic manicuring machine called i-Nail. It can print incredibly high quality designs on your nails. We had a blast and all the girls had a lot of fun. Check out their website for more info: http://iNailParty.com (09/30/2008) By Liz RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I have a good idea! A few weeks before the party get your mum to go round the local shopping center and pick out a few things from like 25 shops then write them down on a piece of paper. Type them up on the computer and hand them out to your friends when they arrive. At the shopping center split into teams and do a scavenger hunt with the list and your mobile phone (just in case). Make a time and place to meet your mum and if everyone has written all the places they found the objects then they win the grand prize (which turns out to be a lolly pop). Go for a meal and have a smashing sleepover afterward! (10/08/2008) By Kirsty RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas You could take them to a theme park like Luna Park which is in Sydney, or a water park. You could also take them to an aquarium or something. (10/18/2008) By Solly RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas You could have an iceberg thing with your daughter's name on it carved into a picture of her. I had that for my daughter's 11th birthday, it looks really cool. (12/09/2008) By Mary American Idol Party My mom ordered this American Idol party pack that had lots of decorations with the American Idol theme. We had a table for 3 people to act like Simon, Randy, and Paula. Then we let everyone have a chance to sing and dance. We gave out golden tickets we made to win prizes. We had dancing, water balloons, and lots of costumes games. I think this was the best birthday ever. (02/07/2009) By Jessica Report Spam or Abuse Request: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas Archived on 02/15/2008 I need ideas for my daughter's 12th birthday party. Tyieshaka from Houston, Texas Answers: RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I almost did this for my birthday but we didnt get the chance. This takes place at the mall. You invite about 8 girls. You let them all pick one person to partner up with, and give each team $10 and a disposible camera. You give them a list of things to try on or buy at a certain store. The first team to report back to the certain spot they started at wins. For lunch, you'd go to the food court and have a nice lunch! ($65 estimated to have this party). (04/04/2007) By shannon mcninch RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I'm having a New York themed party because it is my favorite place in the world. Why not try it for yours, pick your fave place. (04/07/2007) By ashley RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I thought I would tell everyone what I am doing, I also live at the beach. When we get to my house it will be 3:30 pm we will have a water balloon fight (I am inviting 6 people plus me). Around 4:15 pm we will have a tug a war in the lake. We will play video games because the boys will want to. We are gonna have pizza for supper. After supper I am gonna open my present (yay) lol. We will have cake. You can never forget the piñata so after cake we will smack open the piñata. We're gonna go down to the beach and hangout and play truth dare and stuff like that. This is one of my favourites, we are all gonna have a silly string war outside! We are all gonna have glow sticks, we are gonna go outside and play hide and go seek in the dark and play murder tag! We will probably take showers because everyone will be sweaty and dirty (yuck). We will eat popcorn, watch movies, have pop and eat chips and talk for the rest of the night. The first person to fall asleep will get drawn on! THE NEXT DAY! we will probably sleep till 11:30 am we will have bacon, eggs, hashbrowns and pancakes for breakfast. After breakfast we will go outside and hang out do what ever! I will give everybody loot bags! then we will take everyone home in a limo! STUFF NEEDED....piñata, Piñata stick, piñata fillers, rope, gloves, chips pop popcorn, loot bags, plates, napkins and cups, pizza, bacon.eggs, hashbrowns, pancakes, silly string, cake and movies!! This may seem hard but it will be the best b-day party your daughter ever had!! (04/23/2007) By Nicole RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas My 12th birthday is coming up soon, (one and a half months to be exact) and me and my mother are going crazy trying to plan it. I first planned on renting out a WHOLE bowling alley & sleeping over there with all my friends, but when my mother said it would cost more than $5,000 dollars (and she know this because she worked at one until last Thursday, because she quit), we thought of more ideas. I wanted to have the following: -sleepover somewhere other than my house -people to wait on us -a place that could hold many people -and maybe a pool Me and my mom finally decided to have my party at our local 4/5 star hotel. It is very inexpensive compared to my bowling alley idea, and with connecting rooms (or a VERY large suite) I could have the best party ever! We're still in the planning stages, but I think this will top the rest of my parties by far! Last Year's Party: Held at Clementon Park (our local water/amusement park). We drove 6 of my friends to the waterpark and then rode rides for about 2 or 3 hours! When we went home we just chilled out in my basement (which my parents use as a sports bar with 12 tv's). It was great, but I want to top it! (05/19/2007) By September My party Those are all great ideas, but mine is better. I am going to have a blacklight with blank or old cd's hanging up all over the place (it makes it glow better). I'll ask my dad to make a few cd's with the cooliest jams from 2007. Well have pizza, soda, candy, chips, etc. My cakle is going to be an ice cream cake with either buttercream topping or whipped topping. Then later on we will go outside and play water balloon volleyball. Also when it gets dark we will play flash light tag and hide-and-go-seek. Then we will come back in, have girl talk and who ever falls asleep first gets stuff like their hand dipped in warm water so they'll have to pee..LOL stuff like that done to them. Then some time that night we will decorate t-shirts and I will have a backround decorated so my friends can take pictures with me in their pj's clothes etc. Well that is my 13 b-day party plan.. (05/28/2007) By Lindsey RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas You could do a blind folded pie-in -the- face game where you fill aluminum pans with whipped cream and you put at blindfold on and try to hit the birthday girl with the pie. Hope this gets the birthday gears running in your head. (06/29/2007) By Bigfoot RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I'm turning 12 soon. I like the idea of inviting 1 or 2 of your best buds and going to a really nice spa or something. If you invite less people you can do more expensive stuff. Seriously you should try it. Kelsie (06/30/2007) By Kelsie RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I am turning 12. I am havin a pink party. I'm inviting 5 friends plus me and we all have to wear pink! We are sleeping in our pink decorated trailor outside and we are goin to rent tons of movies, play volleyball, and eat cotton candy and pizza! I'm so excited! (07/02/2007) By marissa RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I think a really good idea would be to take them to a hotel and order room service. Make sure that the hotel you book has a pool becuase that can keep girls entertained for hours. After their done with the pool you can take them back up to your room and play games/open up presents. (07/13/2007) By Chocolate Party I am turning 12 in half a year about. I still have to think early about my party. I live near a club house. I thought maybe we could rent the club house. I love chocolate so maybe i could have a chocolate fountain, hot chocolate, and have chocolate bars. The cake would be chocolate. My balloons would be brown and white. Of course we will have music and dance but i thought that the theme choclate was different from everyone's else. :) and that is a good thing. (07/14/2007) By Breanna heres what my mom did 4 me....

Dress N' the Dark; you go in a room(lights off) with clothes everywhere. you have 2 min. to put on an outfit in the dark. The girl with the best outfit wins! 2. Blindfold beauty; you get a partner and one of you gets your makeup done, but there is a twist. Your partner will do your makeup blindfolded. You (the one getting your makeup done) will have to instruct your partner. The team with the best makeup job wins. 3. Packed Purse; everyone brings a purse to the party. You call out objects ex. gum,lip gloss, pen. Whoever has the most of them in their purse wins! (11/23/2007) By chloe RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas Okay, I have a few REALLY AWESOME IDEAS! First, there's this really fun game called pin your lips on the hottie! it's like pin the tail on the donkey except you find a really hot guy celebrity poster and you tape it on the wall... every girl (i'm having 8) will put dark red lipstick on and try to pin their lips on his! Next is just like an iron chef contest, get some ingredients and see who can make the best out of them! Last but not least is I HATE SKITTLES (the game), get a bag of skittles and put em' in a big bowl, pass them around and every person has to grab two. If they match in color then you can eat them but if not you have to let them sit in your mouth (no chewing, swallowing, or sucking) til' your next turn. They will keep adding up in your mouth til' you finally get a colored pair THEN YOU SWALLOW THEM ALL! My party is soon and I'm turning 12 and I think these ideas will work! (11/24/2007) By Jessica RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas OK Girls here is what you do. My daughter is having her 12th B-day party and I'm taking her and her friends to The Pottery Patch. They will do ceramics. I did this with my Niece already so I do know the Girls love it. They get to pick out their piece of pottery or ceramic they want and they get to paint it. When it's all finished being Baked or Fired in a couple of days, I pick up the pieces they made and give it to them but, while your there at the place you can have your food and drinks and unwrap gifts and CAKE at The Pottery Patch. THEY LOVED IT! (12/02/2007) By Just a MOM RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas It might be fun to put on really bad makeup and play the kissy poster game. What you do is get a poster of a celebrity and tape it to the wall and have the girls put a blindfold on and put bright red lipstick on and try to kiss the celebrity on the lips. (12/29/2007) By me RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I'm havin my 12 b-day soon and I might have a 'Little Kid's' style party. It could have a Pooh Bear theme, play musical chairs, ring around the rosie and all that fun stuff. Hope I helped! (01/16/2008) By tikikiki RE: 12 Year Old Girls Birthday Party Ideas I am going to be 12 in September so a long way away but I am SO SO excited I am already planning! Last year I did a sleepover but first we just hung out and played. We then had pizza! Then we did a bigger and better scavenger hunt where we went outside to the neighborhood and there were 2 teams. One team got one side of the street and then other team got a different side. We then went to peoples doors and asked if they had anything bigger than what we were carrying. For Example, my mom gave us each a paperclip to start and then we asked if anyone had something bigger than the paperclip. We got a can of flowers at one of the houses and at the next house they gave us an even bigger wreath and we gave them the can of flowers. We then came back to my house and it was already night time. So then we opened presents. We set our sleeping bags and beds up and then watched unaccompanied minors! We stayed up 'til about 3-4! Tired the next day! This year I am inviting about 15 girls and I am going to either do one of these ides? (please comment and tell me which one) 1)America's Next Top Model- We would go shopping to get accessories and then come back to my house to get pictures taken by a photographer around my town 2) Amazing Race- Split in to groups and play the original Amazing Race game around town in teams! 3) Laser tag- Everyone does it...yet everyone LOVES IT! 4) Go to the city and go swimming at the beach and out to lunch. 5) Scavenger Hunt at a shopping mall- For example, take cameras and take a picture of a cute boy, or someone picking there nose.

You should have a sleepover. those are always fun. Rent lots of movie and make lots of popcorn and put whip cream on whover falls asleep first. I did that before. It was hilarious! It was way fun!

I want to invite my friends who are older then me and I want it to be fun for everyone. If anyone has any ideas please tell me because I am really clueless and my birthday is in august! Callie Answers: Toga Party You could do a toga party! (07/02/2005) By Karli Pizza Party! My daughter will be turning 12 on Saturday. Here's our suggestion: If you have a low-cost Pizza place like "Eats-A-Pizza" plan it there. It only costs $3 a person and you can ask everyone to bring their own money for it, if they can. Or you can have a "pizza making" party. Where you all make the pizza's yourselves at home and rent a movie with lots of popcorn & pop. Hope it's a great day for ya'll. (07/26/2005) By StockpilesRus.com Disco Party I am having my 12th birthday soon, I am having a Disco themed party. Everyone has to dress up, and we are going to have two contests, one for best costume, and another for best disco dancer. It is going to be in my basement, because it is dark, and I am going to have a fog machine, disco ball and lights, you don't have to have this stuff because it is expensive, but it is more fun! I think this is going to be a fun party, if anyone has any ideas, post them! (08/18/2005) By Bry Dance Party For my 12th birthday party I am having a dance party. My friends are coming over and we are going to go down into my basement where it will be decorated as a dance club (one section). Since my mom doesn't like to spend a lot of money on B-day parties, she is borrowing her friends dance floor and we are hanging streamers up on the walls for cheap wall covers (since my walls are tan). My mom will run to Safeway to get their chicken platters (cheap) and a cool cake. (11/03/2005) By MADISON Sleepover I'm inviting all my girlfriends over for a sleepover. First, we'll go to the park and then go swimming in my pool. Then we'll go back home and relax, play games, dance, listen to music, etc. After that, we'll have movie madness and play movies non-stop. We'll dance some more and talk about girl stuff. Then the next morning we'll make pancakes and give each other makeovers.v (06/18/2006) By Emily Backwards Party I am about to have my 12th birthday too, 2 things that you could do is you could have a backwards themed party and have everyone wear their stuff backwards and come in the backdoor and open presents before anything else and stuff like that. Even write backwards on the cake or some thing. The other one is a black light themed party, wear everything that glows in the blacklight, get glow necklaces and stuff too. I hope it works out for you! Have a great 12th! piper (06/29/2006) By piper Haunted House A great idea is a sleepover! I have had 3 in a row from my 9th birthday until my 12th. I have many friends that are older than me and they loved them! When is your birthday? Mine is in october so we go to haunted houses and have costume games. I'm into sports so we usually play those in our costumes. Another good idea to do at your party is a dance off. They are very fun and hilarious! i hope you have a great birthday! Good luck planning!
