Need Ideas for Teen Boy Birthday Party
| Thu, 03-08-2007 - 8:17pm |
Hi ladies! I’m a member of another board, but I had a question I was hoping you could help me with. My son’s birthday is coming up and were taking a couple of his friends to a go cart park, but later he wants about 7 or 8 friends over at the house to hang out and do the cake and presents thing. In the past when we’ve had his birthday parties at the house it was easy, we’ve had a clown, kid games, etc. But now, these are 14 year old boys, I don’t have a clue how to keep them busy. Some may want to play video games, but that would leave others just sitting around getting bored.
So I’m begging for some ideas for what to do with these boys.
Thanks in advance!

Actually, most of the time, left alone, they will make their own fun.
Have plenty of 14 year old kid food...DVD's available to watch...they'll play video games but likely take turns...keep checking on them...you can have board games, but I don't know how many 14 year old boys play them on their own...cards...most of the time, though, they just want to "chill" and "hang."
Just keep them supervised and keep the food coming!
In ds14's case, they DON'T talk about girls, not even his 15 year old friends...and I will take it as long as I can! They talk Halo 2, Oblivion, Crackdown...XBox Live games, cheats, techniques, etc. They talk music, YouTube, etc. They talk movies. They love gory movies or 'stupid-funny' movies. They gripe about school. Food is good. Videos or gaming is good. A chance to get outside a bit (for mom and dad's sake!) is good.
