| I need help deciding games for my party! I am turning 13. Any fun game ideas? People from ages 11-13 will be there. It is a sleep over too. Tessa | |

| Twister | 07/14/2005 |
| Twister is always a fun game. If parents don't have a problem, maybe a Ouija board (not sure of the spelling on this one) would be fun. Just remember to keep it simple, fun and something that won't hurt anyone's (those who are at the party and those who aren't) feelings. | |

| Drawing Contest | 07/16/2005 |
| We have had fun with a "drawing" contest. Plain paper, lots of crayons lying around. Everyone sits in a circle on the floor. They must use at least 5 different colors. Select the "picture to be drawn" (fish in the ocean, kids playing in the park etc.) then every one puts on a blindfold and draws!! That's right, you can not look at what you're drawing!! Set the timer for 4 minutes and let the drawing begin!! | |

| Lots of Ideas | 07/28/2005 |
| Water balloons are fun! Only if it's good weather though. Also. light as a feather or doing each others hair. Capture the flag, early before it gets dark, although it can be really fun in the dark outside. Blindfold makeovers. That's all I got for now. | |

| The Ghost Game | 07/29/2005 |
| What about the ghost game? You have one pack of ordinary playing cards and you have to ask questions to a supposed ghost. The questions can be about anything, romance, the future or about the "ghost" itself. After each question, draw card from the top of the pile, red means yes and black means no. The joker means laughing. P.S. you can only do yes and no questions. | |

| Water Balloon Toss Game | 08/01/2005 |
| You could look up recipes to make Lip gloss. Scavenger hunts are good, too. You could also do a taste or feel test and there's this really cool game that I think is fun. It's called Water Balloon Toss. This is best for a group of 4. You divide into 2 teams. Each team gets 1 towel. Whichever team starts will put 1 water balloon in their towel and they will launch it to the other team. The other team has to catch it. If it pops on your side the other team gets a point. If it pops on your opponents team then you get a point. First to 15 wins. These are all really fun activities. You should try them. | |

| Cops and Robbers | 08/06/2005 |
| You could designate someone to be the "cop". Then the cop counts to 10 and all the "burglars" run around until the "cop" caches one. | |

| Runway Model Makeovers | 09/02/2005 |
| It is so much fun to do runway model makeovers! You will need a bunch of makeup (in different colors), fake eyelashes and lots of sparkles! Everyone gets a turn. They are not allowed to see themselves or even see any of the colors. | |

| Balloon Towers/font> | 09/13/2005 |
| Hey I'm 14 and I would play balloon towers. First you get 100 non blown up balloons and 17 rolls of tape and you set a timer to go off in 3 minutes. Have teams of whatever size blow up the balloons and tape them together to see who can build the biggest tower in the 3 minutes. | |

| Interviews | 10/17/2005 |
| You get each person with a partner and they do each others make up and get dressed nice, then the host interviews them. | |

| More Ideas | 10/18/2005 |
| I am 13 too, so I would say a fun game to play is dress-up with pictures, you'll have fun putting makeup on and looking goofy with your friends. Twister is always fun. Giving each other a makeover, and umm, probably watching movies would be fun. Scary movies are always fun at sleep overs with friends. I hope you have a fun time at your party! Good luck! | |

| Cance Battles | 10/21/2005 |
| I had a sleep over last year and it went well. We had dance battles. It's so funny making up a dance in 10 seconds. | |

| Hide and Seek | 10/22/2005 |
| At my 13th (in a hotel room) there is going to be 7 of us and were going to play this game where 1 or 2 people hide with a cell phone and then they call every few minutes to another phone that the other people have and give them hints to where they are! It's really fun. | |

| Sock Game | 10/23/2005 |
| I know a good game called 'Sock Stock'. Each guest is given a pile of socks, and the host or another chosen caller says how the object of the game is to see how many pairs of socks you can put on yourself in 2 min.. See how many people only put the socks on their feet. | |

| Scary Movies | 10/25/2005 |
| We've had loads of ideas for a halloween sleep over. One is to have loads of scary movies and put them all in a box an pick them out 1 by 1. While the freaky movies are on, make someone put on scary face paint and wet their hair and stand at the window looking in! Trust me, it is freaky! | |

| Karaoke | 12/12/2005 |
| You could do karaoke even if you don't have a karaoke machine. Just get some CD's and play them and sing and dance. Then, you can vote who sang the best, who sang the most words of their song and who danced the best. Hope I helped! | |

| Games For a Sleep over Party | 02/27/2006 |
| Panic Word: Write down 100 words on index cards (one word per index card), such as blink, stare, lint, thread, plate, bra, shoelace -- any words you like. Stack the cards and put them in the center of the room. Divide the players into 2 teams and seat them opposite each other. Set the timer or stopwatch for one minute. Have the first player from Team One draw a card from the pile and give clues to the word to his/her teammates before the timer ends the play. If the word is "blink", the team member might say, "What you do if dust gets in your eyes?" Players from Team One try to guess the word; if they are successful before the time is up, they get a point. If the timer runs out and the word is not guessed, the other team gets a point. Take turns until all the cards are gone, then add up points to see who wins No-Mirror Makeover: One of the best themes for a sleep-over party for teenage girls is a Makeover theme. Have a beauty contest in which the contestants have to apply all of their make-up without a mirror. This is a game in which the most hideous contestant wins the prize. Make sure to take some nice blackmail photos of all the contestants! Sock Grab: Everyone in the game puts on socks so they are half hanging off their feet but still staying on. Check all the socks are consistent. The game is simple - you now crawl around the floor on your hands and knees trying to pull everyone else's socks off whilst not letting them get your own socks. The last person left with one sock on is the winner. A good variation is to play this game in the dark, PICNIC: Sit in a circle and have the first person start with "A". They must say any word starting with "A". The following person to the left now repeats that word, and adds a word starting with "B". Keep going until you get to "Z". The last person will have to recite each item through the whole alphabet. If someone cannot remember an item, or messes up, they are out and must move away from the circle. The next person picks up where they left off. Blair Witch Hide And Seek: A new type of hide and seek to play using a mobile phone and house phone. Wait until it's dark and turn out the lights. One person hides with a cell phone. In the pitch black, everyone goes looking for this one person. Every so often he must call the house phone and give clues to where he is hiding. This game is thrilling and fun. If you have one, get a night vision video camera to follow the guests, and watch the tape later. Great game for teens! Boy Meets Girl: This game can be very funny. Everyone sits in a circle. Get a piece of paper each and all write a boy's name on it. Now fold it over and pass it to the person on your right. Everyone now writes a girl's name on the paper (don't peek at the last thing written on the paper). Then write a place, next a sentence that the boy says to the girl, and finally a sentence that the girl replies with. Each time you write something you fold over the paper to hide what you have written, then pass it on. KISSY KISSY POSTER GAME: This is a good game for teens and a girls party in particular. Get a nice poster of your favorite pop star or celebrity. Then all the girls put different on lipsticks and take it in turns to be blindfolded. They must then kiss the poster. The person who kisses closest to the celebrity's lips gets to take the poster home and wins a small prize! | |
