How to Plan Hen Party Games

The invitations are all sent, the responses are coming in and now it's time to come up with some games to play at the hen party. How racy do you want to get? That depends on who is coming to the party. Consult with the bride to be on how far you should go but don't give up any surprises you may have in store.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Music tape or CD
• Paper bags
• Scavenger hunt list

1. Come up with a group of items that the guests must go out to look for. Planning a scavenger hunt for a hen party can be as much fun as the actual event. This can be a "Naughty" or "Nice" scavenger hunt depending on how risque you want to get.

2. Play "The Handbag Game" as a great way for guests who don't know each other to get some idea of everyone's taste or personality. Each person takes 3 items out of their handbag and places these items in a small paper bag. One person opens each bag and the guests have to guess whose handbag these items came from.

3. Try "Name That Tune," a game that gets more and more fun to play as hen party guests imbibe more liquor. Make a compilation tape or CD of songs and, as each cut is played, the guests shout out the name of the tune.

4. Make everyone laugh by playing the drinking game known as "Fuzzy Duck." Sit in a circle and go completely around the circle with everyone saying Fuzzy Duck. Take a drink. Reverse the direction of the circle and everyone says Ducky Fuzz. Take a drink. Keep reversing the direction and changing the wording. The more you drink the harder it will become to say the proper words. The game is over when you are laughing so hard that no one can say anything!

Tips & Warnings

• A great prize for games played at a hen party would be some kind of liquor that can be consumed by all at the party.
• Make sure that there is a designated driver if the games you play at the hen party involve a lot of liquor and there is a chance that guests will not be able to drive home.
