Great Teen Party Games that Are Sure to Be a Hit
December 20, 2006 by
Have you ever had the problem of trying to plan a party for a group of teens and you just don't know what to do or how to entertain them? I can tell you that I have and struggled with ideas of what to do and how to do it. That was until I talked to other 
teens and asked them what they would find fun and not make them feel like toddlers. Here I will list some teen games we have used first hand at different events that turned out to be a big hit with all the teenagers.
Daring Dress Up
For this you will need a bag. Any type of bag will do as long as it will hold what you will need. You are going to need funny clothes, hats, shoes, sunglasses. You are also going to need music for this game.
Put all your clothing items in a bag and have everyone sit or stand in a circle. While sitting in a circle start up the music and pass the bag around until the music stops. The person who has the bag when the music stops has to reach into the bag without looking and grab an item of clothing. Whatever item of clothing is pulled out that player has to put it on. When there are no more items remaining in the bag all players vote to see who is dressed the silliest.
Scavenger Hunt
Who doesn't love to have a good scavenger hunt? This is a game that people of all ages have loved over the years and has only grown more creative.
Prepare everything for your scavenger hunt the night before. Make the scavenger hunt even more fun with having a theme of some sort. Make it a Wal-Mart theme even. Things you can put on the list are lost receipts, purple socks with stripes, pink fuzzy notepad, smiley face sticker and even more.
On the day of the party give each person the list of items and $5-$10 and see what items they can come up with in a limited amount of time. After the hunt celebrate with a nice big dinner or cake and ice cream. You can choose whatever goodies you would like.
Hardboiled Or Not?
This game is a really fun one. You will need 2 eggs for each player. All eggs except for one will be hard boiled. You might want to have a plastic tablecloth or piece of plastic laid down for this game.
