Adult Birthday Game & Activity Ideas

Adult Birthday Party Game And Activity Ideas

Adult birthday parties can be one of the most fun events we attend. Unlike younger-geared birthday parties, when it’s an all-adult affair, there can definitely be more room for options of activities, themes, and even the length of the party.

Ice Breaker Activities

As with any other age group, it’s always a good idea to start the event off with an icebreaker-type activity to help your guests relax and begin to mingle. Some great options for icebreaker games are Ask Me, Trust Walk, and The Best. Ask Me is a game that consists of you giving your guests nametags as they arrive that say “Ask Me About…”. Each nametag is different and can say a variety of things, such as “…my first kiss” or “…the craziest thing I’ve ever seen”. Guests will ask other guests the questions that are on his or her nametag and this allows your guests to get to know each other right off the bat! Trust Walk involves two guests randomly placed together, with one being blindfolded and the other giving verbal directions to lead them to a chose object or out of the room. The Best is a particularly fun icebreaker activity in which you put a collection of slips of paper with things written on them like “Longest Thumbs” “Best Crabwalk” and “Highest Jump”. Draw the slips of paper out of a container at random and each guests performs what is on the slip of paper to determine who does it best!

No matter what your chosen theme, there are tons of options for indoor and outdoor activities for an adult birthday party that are wonderfully versatile for all guest personalities across the board. Keep in mind, for most adult birthday parties, you will want to stick to 1-2 activities (not including the icebreaker game you choose) after your guests have filled up on food. A series of activities that are super popular currently and work for either indoor or outdoor parties, are the “Minute to Win It” themed games. For less than 15$, you can buy a pre-packed “Minute to Win It” kit full of activities for your guests, or you can create a kit yourself. There are plenty of items you can find at local sports store, $1 store, local craft shops and Amazon as well. Check out the youtube video below to get creative ideas on what to put in a DIY “Minute to Win It” kit for your adult birthday party!  They are a little long but you can fast forward and only view the games you are interested in. There are 40 minute to win it games in this video –

You can go to youtube.com and search for Minute to Win it BluePrint to get instructions how to play each fun games.

 Now, let’s take our adult birthday party outside first. When outdoors, no matter if it’s cold or warm temperatures, there are several activities that your guests will enjoy at your adult birthday party. The classic and timeless activity of roasting marshmallows and telling ghost stories around a fire is always a sure win to show your guests a good time. Another classic outdoor game is Cornhole, in which bean-filled sacks are thrown into holes drilled into a long board from a certain distance. If you are looking for low-cost options activities, a Women vs. Men Scavenger Hunt is an exciting and competitive way to entertain your guests. Scavenger hunts involve two or more teams, each with a list of tasks the team members need to accomplish during a set time.  Other games that are highly engaging and full of laughter are hula hoop contests, limbo, and ladder golf.

Indoor games can be just as interactive and full of energy, and one of the most popular activities is a Murder Mystery. What’s really great about this activity is that you can be as subtle or elaborate as you want and there are so many directions you can take this activity for your guests. You can even center your adult birthday party’s theme around this Murder Mystery game! The basic idea of the Murder Mystery is exactly how it sounds—involve your guests in figuring out who is guilty of this fictional crime! You can incorporate other smaller games within the Murder Mystery activity, such as cards, scavenger hunts, or even charades.Murder Mystery

For a more low-key indoor activity, charades is always a good go-to adult party game. Zoom-In is also another hilarious game in which extremely zoomed-in snapshot photos are shown to your guests and they have to guess what the photo actually is. Identity Crisis is another extremely fun game in which you put a celebrity’s name on a piece of paper and tape it to the guest’s forehead/hat/headband so that he or she cannot see the name. Then, the guest asks the other guests questions to try and figure out just whose name is on the paper, like “Am I a singer”, “Am I married”, or “Do I have long hair?” You also can’t go wrong, of course, with classic games such as Twister or Jenga!

With the right games and activities, your adult birthday party will be one to certainly remember for a long time to come.

Using Frozen as a birthday party idea, you can use soft blue tones to make an elegant and memorable venue area. Using a room with vaulted ceilings, or chandeliers is ideal for presenting a royal feeling, otherwise you can create your own hanging decorations with lanterns or a multitude of balloons in different, light shades.  To bring the movie to life, you can get movie posters featuring each of your child’s favorite characters and place them in vintage frames and hang them around the room.  You can create snowflake streamers to drape around the room, even using them as banners on the guest tables to bring that wintry touch.

Lego Birthday Party Ideas

For many children, Legos offer years of fun with limitless options for using their creativity through imaginative play. So you can be sure of a win with a Lego birthday party, giving your child a celebration that incorporates a classic.

A fantastic thing about creating a Lego party is all the bold colors you can bring to really make a dynamite event. Using color card stock, a one inch hole punch and foam tape, you can make invitations that are unique and look just like the lego blocks. Use the hole punch on a foam tape to create a perfect circular shape. If you don’t have a hole punch you can cut a circle by using scissors. Stick about 2 circles in a column, and about 5 circles in a row depending on the size of your card stock for the invitation. Using different colors for each invitation ensures that each copy is one-of-a-kind.

Decorating your venue for a Lego party can be a blast, with almost limitless DIY options that can make your party stand-out.  You can compile your own DIY giant legos into whatever building you want by cutting holes in tissue boxes to allow 2 colored plastic cups to be inserted. Wrap them in a same colored paper as the cup. That makes one DIY giant lego block. Or you can wrap styrofoam blocks and create circles to glue on with more styrofoam.  You can make a banner by hanging ribbon, and clothespinning DIY legos up: these are made by using colored card stock and a circle cutter. Stick the circle shapes on the card stock using double sided foam tape so that the circles are slightly popped out.  You can even incorporate your child’s massive collection of legos by building little vases, buckets and other items to hold forks, centerpieces and more.

For edibles at a Lego Theme party colors that stand out like legos such as red, blue, green and a must yellow work fantastically. M&Ms in lego made bowls add a fun touch that most people enjoy. You can use sixlets, gummy bears, gummy worms, gobstoppers, all these have those bright colors that really shine. For healthier snack options, red apples, cucumbers, celery, carrots, strawberries, really any fruits that have a lego color can be incorporated nicely. You can create jello cups in different colors that are fun.  And of course, the birthday cake would look phenomenal shaped as a lego itself. For drinks, you can serve  cordials in a yellow paper cups with a LEGO smiley drawn on them.

Activities at a Lego birthday party can include a race to see who can build a pre-packaged item (race car, helicopter etc.) the fastest, bringing some fun competition in. Give the winner a great prize like a package of legos to take home.  You can play pin the head on the lego man, just create the picture from cardstock, very easy. You could also have a competition to see who can guess how many legos are in a jar, and of course, give a prize to the closest guess!

For take home gifts you can be a sure favorite by sending home little lego packs, you can also make lego sugar cookies, or even just put candies in a lego shaped box.  All of these options create a great way for your guests to remember the fun they had at your Lego party!
