Have you a thirteen-year-old son who'd like to give a party? You can have a great party even in your living room with some of his friends. This party can be quite enjoyable for the parents as well as the boys if you practice a little know-how. Take a tip on how this party can be arranged with little expense.
The next stunt gives the young hopefuls a chance to use some lovely big words, a la some of the radio comedians. Each boy takes his turn in making the longest sentence he can, beginning each important word with the same letter. For instance: "So-long sister, see you soon in San Francisco, selling silly symphonies to sarcastic sobsters." It is well to give them from three to five minutes to think up their lingo, then let each take his turn to spout. Most of them after listening to Fibber McGee and some other radio comedians will have a lingo on tap to use. A prize can go to the fellow with the most words in his sentence or the most sense in his speech. Refreshments can be simple for boys but should be something of which they are especially fond. Ice cream and cake is always a favorite with youngsters of this age and they like plenty of it. We set up a card table across the kitchen door and used it for a counter. The fellows lined up to get their ice cream and cake, then dropped down in some convenient place to "lick the platter clean."
After refreshments we expected the young lads to take their departure, but by this time they were thoroughly warmed up and stayed to demonstrate stunt after stunt. Each one had something to show or some trick to try. This was one party when the boys thought the fun never ran out.
Stag for the Thirteeners
Have you a thirteen-year-old son who'd like to give a party? If you have I'll wager you are quaking in your boots, but there's really nothing to fear. Parties for lads of this supposedly trying age needn't be free-for-all wrestling matches. They actually can be quite enjoyable for the parents as well as the boys if you practice a little know-how.
Parties for these active youngsters must be better planned than for any other age group. If not well planned the boys' excessive spirits are apt to get the better of them and the furniture suffers accordingly. We have on a number of occasions given such parties in our living room with no more damage than a little stirred-up dust. The secret is to have enough planned games to occupy the entire evening not sissy games, because boys like to be active but games where they can move about, meet competition, and laugh at the other fellow.
A youngster of thirteen loves a to have a competition, fun, challenge and something where they can actively participate. The secret of having a great party where all their expectation be fulfilled
Is to have enough planned games and a good space to move freely.
