So, your daughter is turning sweet 16, and you are making the very strong suggestion that her party be all girls! If she wants boys to attend, you may have to come up with some convincing celebration ideas that keep the boys at bay. Here are some suggestions to offer:

  • A day out at the spa, or an overnight slumber party focused on a “stay-at-home” spa.
  • High tea at a very fancy hotel with a few of her best pals.
  • A special dinner out with a few of her select friends and a late-night movie.
  • A day at the amusement park or other special attraction with a friend. (This may be a bit pricey, but if she only brings one friend it will minimize your budget.)
  • A hotel party. (Make sure this is supervised, otherwise it could be easily crashed by boys.)
  • Instead of a party, spend more on a very special gift and have a family celebration with one or two of her friends over to celebrate.

  1. k well i had an amaxing 14th birthday. i had a picture scavengerr hunt. i invited about 35 people and before the party put them into groups of 4. for each group we had a driver. ( ONE OF MY PARENTS FRIENDS). WE THEN WENT ALL AROUND TOWN, having to do and find thing and take a picture of it. for example

    take a picture of you feeding a cop a dounut
    push a baby in a stroller
    bowl down the street
    do the chicken dance and for everyone you did it in front of you got 5 pts per person
    take a picture on a sports feild ( soccer, baseball, bball court)
    roll down a hill
    take a picture of you with a rollerblader
    knock on someones door and ask for toliet paper
    have you whol team go down a slide at the same time
    take an upside down picture with ur whole team
    drink black coffee at a local coffe shop
    climb a tree with ur whole team, pull random ppl off the street to join you, get 5pts extra for each person
    hold a sign in front of cars saying honk if you love…
    make a the letter of ur drivers first name with ur team mates bodys
    go to a church and take a picture
    taKe a picture of you mowing a random persons yard
    go to a nail solone and ask then to paint ur nails
    take a picture next to a pt crusier
    take a picture of one team member on a motor cycle.

    we had many more thing including have sirtian object that we would have to find like
    paper clip
    feather
    safty pin
    ect…..
    make sure you know the nighborhood and trust people there

    we only had about 2 hrs to do everhting
    thats more than enopugh time to because you lable each task with pts. if they have a picture of the doing it they get the points . After you all meet up at the birthday girls house and tally the points the team that has the most wins a prize we then also had cake and ice cream and pizza and just hung out and danced

    PS. there were also more tasks i just cant remember then if you decide you want to do this party you might want to come up with more ideas.

  3. oh my gosh!! i had the best birthday party ever! i am 16 and it was a blast. My mom bought me a cake… and the good thing about having no friends is you can eat all the cake by yourself!! then after that i danced around with my cat fluffy!! then i got tired so my mom turned on the movie High School Musical 1 and then i just had to watch the next the 2nd one so she turned on High School Musical 2. Then i just couldnt wait any longer so she drove me to the movie theater and i saw High School Musical 3!!! it was so so good!! me and my cat just loved the movie. well my mother did too but my cat is more special to me then her, just cause she is way prettier. well i came home and it was so freckin late it was like… 11 oclock!! wowzer!! so then me and fluffy went to my room and my mom came and tucked me in for bed and read me the story, Barney and friends and i always tell her i am way to old for that book but i enjoy it every time!! Fluffy loves the book too!! then my mom sang me and Fluffy a Lullaby and i fell right asleep but i dont know about Fluffy, he could have stayed up all night!! well anywho you should try to have this fun birthday party sometime it was way to fun to ever handle!
    well me and fluffy say tata!!

  4. Your daughter is old enough to hang out with boys by the time she’s 16. This isn’t the middle ages, geez.
