(for Ages 16-18) Invite guests to a Peanuts party with Snoopy cards instructing each guest to bring his own security blanket and to come representing his favorite character from this famous cartoon series. Decorate with Peanuts posters, stuffed toys, and bowls of peanuts. Sit on the security blankets and read aloud from Peanuts wit and wisdom, and munch on frosted grahams and gigantic lollipops. Lay household products on a table (soap, hair spray, cereal, etc.) with each product identified by a number. Put corresponding numbers in a hat. Each couple draws a number, and has 30 minutes to develop an advertisement for their product (commercial, jingle, skit, or any combination). After 30 minutes, each couple makes a presentation. Then vote on the product you'd be most tempted to buy based upon the advertisement. Have a lip sync party or contest. Have a photo scavenger hunt, or see who can be the most creative with one roll of film. Find out who can get the most interesting shot of the same subject. Ask a member of your group who doesn’t know the plan to write down about 10 random objects or ideas. Then take pictures of the items on the list. (Cameras that make instant prints, like Polaroid cameras, or digital cameras are best). Go on a photo scavenger hunt. This is an excellent group date! Make up a list of pictures required for the scavenger hunt in the mall, i.e. pose with a mannequin, with a security guard, with a celebrity (like a movie poster), at a fountain, reading magazines, etc. Both people must be in each shot, so this requires asking many strangers to take your picture! After all the pictures are taken and everyone meets at the designated spot, take your film to a one-hour photo place. Eat dinner in the food court while they're developing, then pick up your pictures and laugh at them over dessert! Send the girls out for fast-food ($6-$8 per couple) at several different restaurants while the guys make numbered placemats for dinner (assign numbers after the girls leave). The returning girls place dinners on different numbered placemats on the table(s). guys then sit at their placemat for dinner with their date with a dinner someone else most likely purchased. Then for dessert, serve ice cream and toppings. Have a "come as you are" party/date. Call your date at an odd hour during the day, when you know that they will be in their pajamas or bathing suit and tell them that they must come to the party/date wearing what they are wearing at that moment. It will be tons of fun! Make a video with childhood photos and home movie clips of everyone in a group. Then let everyone try to figure out who's who. Make a movie with a group of people or split up and make info-mercials. Then watch them all together. Organize a water carnival, including water balloons, squirt guns, hoses, etc. Play name that tune with older songs. Split the group up into two teams, and take turns as the two contestants. Alternate who gets to guess first by teams for each round. "I can name that tune in _____ notes" (pick a number). Whoever bids the lowest number each round gets to listen to that number of notes. If he/she correctly identifies the song OR the group, his/her team gets a point. Otherwise, the point goes to the other team. Organize a team competition Olympic Games. Play volleyball, kickball, football, keep-away. Run relays, and have tournaments, Make medals for the participants on the winning team. Give each person a paper and a pencil. Have each person start a story. After two minutes, have everyone pass their paper to the right. Give everyone 30 seconds to skim the story, then have them continue the story. Continue passing and writing until each person has written on each story. Then take turns reading the creations. Have a fashion show, modeling your parent's clothes from when they were in high school. Invite several couples to bring slides of a place to which they've traveled. Let each person tell about his/her special place and have refreshments with an international flavor. Page: 2 of 3 (Page: 1, 2, 3) All Rights Reserved. CoolestDates.com |
