Teen B-Day Party Game
SUITCASE GAME: Works well outdoors but can work indoors if U have enough room. Can be played with as few as 2 players. WHAT TO DO FOR PREP:Gather at least 2 medium-large sized suitcases, fill them EACH with the same amount of oversized clothes; Hat, shirt, pants, socks,gloves, scarfs. Whatever; the clothes can be goofy, they can be halloween costumes , whatever you`ve got, they just need to fit everyone coming to the party and EACH suitcase must be equipped with the same amount of EACH item, (such as 1 hat, 2 shirts, 1 pair of pants, 2 scarves etc....per suitcase.)
After you`ve got the suitcases prepared;
SET UP: Mark two lines on the floor or the ground, about 15 feet from each other. (for indoors you could use chalk or masking tape to do this. For outdoors you could draw a line in the dirt with a stick or if on a lawn, use two hoses.)
Divide the amount of participants up into team/lines according to how many suitcases you have;
2 lines for two suitcases = two teams,
3 lines for 3 suitcases = three teams etc.
Have them stand behind one of the lines that you drew on the ground, Then place each suitcase behind the OTHER line you drew ( the one that"s a distance away from the first person in each team/line,
(like 15 feet apart.) Alright, now UR set up.
HOW TO PLAY:
When the Mom, Dad or other non player announces "START" the first person from each line runs to thier suitcase, opens it up and as fast as they can, puts on all of the clothes, then picks up the suitcase and runs back to the front of thier respective lines and takes all the clothes off and puts them back into the suit case and closes it , runs it back to the 15 foot line, runs back and tags the next team mate in line and they do the same. This goes on until everyone in each team has done this. The first team that completes the whole run first is the winning team! This game is a really fun game for all involved , it`s full of energy and craziness and can be adjusted to fit into party themes by using different styles of clothes!.
