Photo Scavenger Hunt

The object of a photo scavenger hunt is to get pictures of all the items using a digital camera or a Polaroid camera so the pictures can be judged right away.

Break your guests up into some small groups and give each of them a list of items they have to find. They can all get the same items or you can make each one different if you don't want them tripping over one someone else in their search.

They head out on foot or by car to find the items and take pictures of themselves with each one. I like to make them find someone to take their picture if potential - if the whole group isn't in each one, they get penalized.

You can select the winner by the first team to finish, the team with the most creative pictures or anything criteria you want.

Make the scavenger hunt items fit the theme of your party. You could use a tombstone, a hockey mask, red paint or a horror movie poster for example.

Pumpkin Bowling

This one is fun for any age, really, but adults can have a lot of fun with it.

Partially fill ten 2 liter pop bottles with water to weight them down, then decorate them to fit the theme of your party.

Set them up in the acceptable 10 pin layout.

Have your guests "bowl" with pumpkins. The smaller gourds regularly work best, or at least smaller pumpkins. Round ones tend to roll better but the ones that aren't as perfect make the game a lot more challenging.

Pumpkin Carving

A lot of population have switched to painting pumpkins rather than carving, both for security and for longer chronic jack-o-lanterns. But carving is still the best in my opinion. There's nothing that says Halloween like the light of a candle flickering straight through the face of a pumpkin.

You can buy carving kits at most craft and hobby market colse to Halloween, with small tools for more detailed carving.

They regularly come with stencils as well but for this game you'll probably want to leave it up to your guests to do freestyle.

You can judge the game in some ways - the first to discontinue their pumpkin, the most creative (in your judgement or the entire group's), the scariest, etc.

And there are Plenty of children's games that are just as much fun for adults - bobbing for apples, Twister, musical chairs, etc. Don't worry about either it's a "mature" thing to do - just worry about either your guests enjoy themselves!

Decade Costumes Make Great Halloween Outfits

Decade Costumes Make Great Halloween Outfits


It's fun to look back at the varied decades and dress in decade costumes once the occasion arises. Each decade had its own unique charm. From poodle skirts in the 50's to the grunge look in the 90's, they all offer something unique.

Dressing in decade costumes may be a tiny easier than dressing in a superhero costume, for example. Most of us have decade costumes already in our closets and we may not even know it. Plus, these items are easy to replicate and find clothing for.

Here is some guidance on how to put together your own decade costumes for your next dress-up event.

The Fifties

Poodle skirts and pony tails quote this era. You can de facto find outfits from this decade in costume shops and even in stores. Also check in your relatives' attics, vintage clothing shops and of course eBay.

The Sixties

The sixties were a fun time. This is the era of the hippie. Think John Lennon, long hair, long skirts, and lots of flowers and beads. Sixties style clothing still comes in and out of style so chances are pretty good that you have the clothes in your closet. If not, they should be fairly easy to obtain in a regular group store or in second hand clothing shops.

The Seventies

Bell bottoms and disco music- these things are just two of the items that quote the seventies decade costumes. Lots of glitter and sparkles for the ladies and dramatic afros for anyone who is willing are just a few of the accessories to pick from. Bell bottoms came back in style not too long ago so they should be fairly easy to locate. You can also check in second hand clothing shop and costume shops.

The Eighties

Teased hair and heavy metal and all the fashions that were attached to this music are just some of the things you can do to make yourself look like you were from the eighties. On hair the longer and more teased it is the more authentic you will look. For inspiration, makes and females alike can learn a lot by watching those old music videos. For a change of pace you can also use other movies such as Flash or even shows such as Miami Vice for yet even more eighties inspiration.

The Nineties

The nineties de facto weren't so long ago but it may be fun to dress up in grunge clothing for your nineties decade costumes. Think Nirvana and Pearl Jam. A pair of thick combat boots and lots of flannel will do a lot to give you the right look.

Throughout the game the pigs, who stole the birds' precious eggs, are hiding from the birds in different structures made of wood, glass, stone and more. The aim of the game is simple, use the birds to kill the pigs. The level is completed once you killed all of the pigs with the number of birds you started with, or less. Once the level is completed the next level will unlocked. You can go back and play the levels again if you want to boost your score.

Use the slingshot to aim and start the bird towards the pigs. Most of the times you want to hit the pigs directly, sometimes you might want to aim at the different objects in order to damage the structure which can cause it to collapse or even explode, and by that kill the pigs.

The angry birds are different from one an additional one and can be used in different ways to maximize your chances to kill the pigs.
Normal Birds (Red ) are the simplest birds, simply touch the screen to aim them towards the pigs.
Ice Birds (Blue ) can be split into three smaller birds midway through the air by touching the screen. You may also select not to split the bird into three and use it as one bird.
Fast Birds (Yellow ) can speed up and dash into their targets. To make them fly faster touch the screen midway through the air. These birds also make taste with wood much easier.
Bomb Birds (Black birds) can explode when touching the screen or shortly after advent into taste with an object.
Egg Birds (White ) drop egg-shaped bombs when touching the screen.
Toucans (Green ) fly like a boomerang and will fly in the opposite direction once you touch the screen.
Big Brother birds (Big Red ) act like the thorough general birds but are bigger and can cause more damage.

The pigs themselves appear in different sizes and with different abilities. The smaller pigs are easy to destroy then the larger pigs who can preserve more damage before being destroyed. Some pigs wear helmets as armor or an armor made of pumpkin, manufacture them stronger.
