Children love mystery and make believe. As such, it’s a great idea to incorporate some mystery party activities into the parties you are about to plan.

Not only will these activities be fun to play, but they also perform an educational role in enhancing children’s reasoning and analytical abilities. Plus they’re really fun to create!

The most obvious of the mystery party activities is to have a mystery party – where everyone comes in character and has to solve a mystery.

Obviously, if you have younger children attending, you may want to steer clear of the murder mystery theme. There are many packages available online which offer excellent mystery planning kits. Check them out!

A mystery party can be confusing for young children. However, regardless of their age, if you are planning a mystery party, there are a few games that when played at a mystery party children will have an awesome time.

I Spy is a classic that never goes out of style. Remember that some games which may be old fashioned to you could be being played by the children for the very first time. If you like, you can spice I Spy up a bit by incorporating actions and singing.

Another game which should be played at a mystery party is Wink Murder. This game is so much fun, and can be adapted in so many ways to suit any theme you may be incorporating.

When planning a party or a play-date for girls, it’s vital that you give some thought to what group party games and birthday party activities can be included.

Not only are they are a way of keeping the girls entertained, but they also assist in teaching them social skills. They’re great for you too, as they give you a chance to focus on what else needs to be prepared for the party.

Making the choice of which party games to include will depend on many factors, including (a) the guests’ ages, gender and preferences, (b) the venue, (c) whether the games are indoor party games or outdoor party games, (d) when the games will be played (e.g. a slumber party will need more games than a usual party, and not all games are suitable for slumber party games) and (e) whether there is a theme (e.g. a mystery theme will require mystery party games, and a princess theme will require princess party games).

Three golden rules to remember when planning party games for girls are:

• It’s often more straightforward (and easier on the purse) to hold the party at home
• Girls love to be involved and challenged, so get them to suggest games that they want to play
• Theme parties (where everyone comes in character) already stand out from the usual parties and are a great way to invent new party games by adapting the rules of traditional party games to suit the theme.

Giving the girls a hand in creating the party will ensure that the party is unique and that the guests enjoy themselves and are engaged.

Have fun!

Children love mystery and surprises. As such, it’s a great idea to include some mystery party games for children at the next party you throw your children.

I Spy is a classic game, which can be adapted to become a really involving and fun game.

To play, one child has to find something in the room or garden. Each player has to guess what the child has chosen but, instead of using words, they have to act out what they think the first child has chosen. It’s therefore a game where everyone plays throughout, rather than one where each person has a go.

Children love mystery and the unknown. If you can incorporate some mystery party games into your party, the partygoers are sure to have fun.

A good example of one of my favorite mystery party games for girls is ‘Whose Feet?’.

To play this game, you will need some pieces of paper and some water-based, child-friendly paint. In turn, each girl will paint the base of her foot, stand on a piece of paper and then wash her foot. The name of each girl will be written on the back of the paper.

Once dried, all of the girls must try and guess whose feet are whose. Be sure to include a print of your feet as well, as this adds a lot of fun because it’ll create mystery as to who the extra feet belong to!

Mystery party games need not involve anything to do with m*u*r*d*e*r(!). Obviously, they can; it’s up to you, but this will depend on the age of the girl whose party you’re planning.

The mystery could revolve around who ted-napped the teddy or where the group will be going on a trip or where the birthday cake is.

You could give the partygoers instructions before they arrive at the party as to what the mystery is and what they have to figure out. Maybe everyone has a piece of the clue, and everyone else has to get as many of these as possible. Perhaps the girls are only allowed to ask each other questions in a specified character or do so avoiding a particular word (or words beginning with a particular letter).

The options are pretty endless. I’ve found it really entertaining to have my girls figure out what they would like the mystery to be. This makes the party really unique and means they’ll remember it for years to come.

Mystery Party Games are traditionally quite difficult to organize. However, this need not be the case with this idea.

Either in advance of the party (to allow the girls to come in fancy-dress) or at the start of the party, give each girl the name of a character that they have to play during the party (e.g. variations of famous singers or actors).

Each girl will also need their own secret which you can give them on the day or which they can make up.

Using their character, each girl must try to find out as many of the other girls’ secrets as possible.

If you’re holding a mystery party, one of the key ways to guarantee its success is to have interesting mystery party characters.

You can either set these in advance or give your guests some scope to decide for themselves. Either way, it’s important that you choose a theme which has enough scope to give people lots of choice.

Each of the girls will need to write down interesting facts about their character (the number of interesting facts will need to be equal to the number of other girls playing the game). These facts will then need to be distributed to the girls so that each girl has one fact about each of the other characters (i.e. if there are ten girls playing, then each girl will need one fact about each of the other nine girls).

The girls will then have to act in their characters to try and get the missing facts about themselves before any of the other characters do.

An essential component of holding a mystery party are mystery party scripts.

Girls simply love role playing and getting into character, so the script could either be a full length script or short enough to give the girls an idea of what their character is like. This will then allow them to be as imaginative as possible; making it fun for everyone!

A box of old clothes and fabrics is a great way to let the girls accessorize their new characters, and it’s completely up to you what the actual mystery is. Sometimes it’s better to focus on the girls creating their characters, rather than worry about coming up with a mystery. If you’re stuck, perhaps one of the girls is really a princess or has been selected to go to ballet or rap school!
