Memory Lane Mystery Box Challenge
It is always a pleasant feeling to revisit your memories. And things get even more special when someone close wishes you on a special day, most probably a birthday, or it’s you wishing them.
Remember, as a child, how you used to plan all those games for birthday party at home weeks before the day? Those days were golden, right? Well, it’s only a matter of time before you can return to recreating those fond memories with a mystery box. For ease of making, here is a list of all the essentials that will help you make a fulfilling hamper for the day.
Balloon Pop Relay
The balloon pop relay is fun and frolic among all the birthday party activities. Make sure you get enough balloons for the entire guest list, as the game will require two teams with equal members to play.
Being a team activity, each member must aim to pop the inflated balloons as quickly as possible when their turn comes. The team with all the balloons popped at the earliest wins.
Human Knot
After reading along the entire list, you will never run out of ideas about what games to play at a birthday party. Returning to the game of human knot requires some crowd activity and will surely take you back to your childhood days.
Whether it is a party for the kids or you and your friends as adults have decided to recreate the golden days, this game will be a sure shot hit.
DIY Escape Room
The DIY escape room idea continues to rule among all other mystery birthday games. You can seek inspiration from the internet for escape room puzzles. Also, when playing in a large group, there are enough rooms for everyone to scatter and search for clues, use the situation and combine real clues with a gift. The game will surely, get everyone interested and help make memories for a lifetime.
Blindfolded Taste Test
This calls for some sweet and flavoury testing games compared to the other birthday party games with only physical activities. Choose anyone and blindfold them, ensuring they cannot see.
Now, you can arrange a separate tasting platter or treat them to the items on the birthday menu. It will be a great experience, making your friend taste a mix of weird and the right flavours.
Movie Mash-Up
Do you enjoy the mashup versions of different songs, or do the single tracks attract you more? Try movie mash-ups for a different experience; you will never regret it. Get clips from all the movies that the special person enjoys or used to love during different stages of their life while growing up and compile those. Remember to arrange some popcorn and beverages for a comprehensive experience.
DIY Photo Booth
Best for outdoor events, it requires a specific corner with dedicated arrangements set according to the party’s theme. You can go all quirky or decide to keep it aesthetic as required. Furthermore, incorporating themed birthday party decorations, a delightful photo booth, and a welcoming board infuse an extra layer of charm and, of course, enjoyment into your birthday festivities.
For quick photos, keep a cameraperson handy with their portable printer or use those Polaroids as convenient. Let everyone unleash the happy version of themselves with such a thoughtful creation.
Newspaper Fashion Show
This requires preplanning and considerable time for everyone to plan and agree on the same costume from newspapers. You can also cut it short by dividing the guests into teams and allotting a 30-minute time bracket to them. Let all decide on creative innovations and come up with the best ideas.
DIY Board Game
While regular board games are usually fun, how about trying on some DIY board games? Are you in pain, not able to think of any idea? Well, in that case, try these:
Create a chess board using Legos
Convert a dry-erase board into a board for Scrabble
Print photos of friends and family to create a DIY version of guess who
Reuse printables for a memory game
When you are so passionate and consistent about helping your loved one take a tour down memory lane, things will surely be successful. Also, do not forget to plan a customised birthday cake, fresh blooms and a nicely done hamper for the special person.
