Playing host is tons of fun for kids and teens. From planning a fab party and making the invitations to showing off your talents in the kitchen, you'll want to know all the HOW-TOs to get it done.

Who doesn't like a party?

Birthday parties aren't the only fun-time occasions - sure you get presents; but let's say you received a Zumba video or DDR pad for your birthday... think of the fun you can have playing host with a Dance Off The Inches: Hip Hop Party and stay fit, too.

Party Ideas

And scary things aren't just for Halloween - have a fright night sleepover or craziest-pajamas party. We're sure you can think of some excuse to play host and have a party. And if money is scarce (and who's money isn't these days) make it a pot luck sort of event and ask each of your guests to bring a goodie or snack to fit the occasion. For example, arrange for each friend to bring a ghoulish goodie for a fright night sleepover.

The invitation

Or have a snack party. Give out your invitations in shelled walnuts (save the shells). On very thin paper write the following:

aaa

From one nut to another... you're invited to a sleepover-snack party!
- Date:
- Time:
- My Place:
Bring one snack (nuts, chips, etc. - enough for 6 hungry zany friends)
A prize will be given to the person wearing the craziest PJs

Sign it as the kids party host and fold the invitation down to a size that will fit inside the walnut shell; lightly glue the two halves together (being careful not to get any on the invitation inside). Then, hand deliver the nut invitation to each guest/friend, telling them to look inside the shell. Sound like fun? We think so.

In the meantime, before the party, think of a funny gift to give the winner wearing the craziest PJs; e.g, an alarm clock, or a small notebook for recording their dreams, or a bag of cotton balls to make little sheep for counting when they can't sleep, etc. Get the idea? You probably have an even funnier idea for kids playing host at a fun party.
