Are party games good fun or an activity best avoided? Whichever side of the fence you are on, take a look at these ‘structured activities’ that are sure to keep guests comfortable while giving you the conversational and mingling result you are looking for.
- If you’re planning a structured group activity, let your guests know beforehand. Some folks might not feel like joining in but don’t want to spoil your evening, either; this gives them the option to graciously bow out.
- Scavenger and treasure hunts can be a hoot, especially if your house is all gussied up for the occasion. Or blindfold willing guests and let them guess objects based on smell or touch.
- Conversation games appeal to almost everybody, so long as you avoid touchy subjects. “Would you rather?” is entertaining and doesn’t put your guests on the spot (and the Internets make it easy). Or stock up on these fantastic Table Topicscubes, which come in several versions. Some of the questions are silly, and some will make you really think before you speak.
