M.T.
We have attended a couple of parties at Main Event and it seems like a great place for the kids and adults for that matter....
We have had the traditional sleep over's - My daughter is 16 and the last several years we have had co ed parties. The guys must leave by 11:30pm and we set up volleyball nets and played all kinds of games that I found on line. They had a blast...
We had a water baloon fight, had to find the cherry in the bottom of the bowl of whipped cream without using their hands, moved a lifesaver from toothpick to toothpick while holding the toothpick in their mouths and could not use their hands. Moved an orange down the line of each team using their necks. Lots of fun, we and a relay Bat race. They got messy but it was fun. One of the parties that my daughter attended was a "survivor" themed party and there was another reality show, I can't remember the name of it but the parents had purchased prizes... for the teams or individual that one. my daughter won tickets to the skating rink.. etc.
Another fun idea that she attended another party was a scavenger hunt. The parents knew just about everyone in their neighborhood and they had limits on how far they could go but it was awesome.
Remember everything that we do is "dumb" or stupid but when I started "thinking" like them it was easier. They will do it you have to coearse them a little but once they get started it is a blast. Also look on line for GAMES for TEENAGERS there are lots out there.
Good LUCK!!!
