A couple of my friends have had b'day parties recently. One of them just invited people round to her house, we watched some movies and then played twister (always a good game).
another one invited people round n turned some music on. we danced all night.
Make sure you have music and snacks so people dont get bored or hungry.!!!! get some games like twister, card games or play Truth or Dare!!!!!!!
Hope it works out well!!!!!
HAVE FUN

DDR (Dance Dance Revolution), movie rental, pizza, cake is always cool, presents are cool or you can tell them instead of presents to bring non-perishable food items for a local food pantry... or a new toy to be donated to a local Angel Tree/Toys for Tots program with the holidays just around the corner - generosity and helping others is always in!
Definitely music... stuff like Pictionary or charades or Win, Lose or Draw is fun at any age...
Theme parties are okay if they're something like Clue or a Murder Mystery, but they take a lot of planning and work... so you might want to just stick to the basics :)

How about that 80's pop culture trivia dvd game? You guys were born in the 80's so you should know the answers. Then pizza and a birthday cake. Have a little dance, break out the music.

Traditional Party:
Are the above just a bit much? How about a regular, stay at home, do it yourselfer. Here are a few games and activities.
Murder:
Prepare slips of paper, enough for each player. All will be blank except two. One will be marked "Murderer" and the other "Detective". Let the players pick no one can say who they are. To play, turn out the lights and have everyone mill around. The Murderer must "strike" one person and they should go down. This "Victim" cries out and the lights are turned back on. Everyone then freezes. The detective then must determine who the killer was by asking questions. Everyone MUST tell the truth except the Murderer, who may lie as much as they want.
Potato Chip Taste Test:
Use about 5 different brands of chips in numbered bowls. Give each person a pad of paper to record which they like the most or comments about them. After everyone is done let them pick which goes to each empty bag. Let them read their comments.
Spaghetti Drop:
Need-bowls of cooked spaghetti noodles, plastic gloves and coke or other bottles (set for each team, relay style game)
To play-Have the teams line up. The first player, on go, puts on the gloves, picks up 10 noodles, runs to the bottle and must drop each one in. When the get all of their noodles in the need to run back and turn the gloves over to the next in line. First team finished wins.
Scavenger Hunts:
Nature hunt-list of items that can be found outdoors.
Use Neighbors-Find items on list by knocking on doors.
OR
Unnatural Nature Hunt:
This one takes work on the part of the parent. They would need to make up things to find outside.
i.e.:
an orange on an oak/pine etc;
a daisy "growing" from...;
rocks wrapped in foil;
Pickles growing in the soil;
other "freaks of nature." Give each person or team a notepad to keep track of what they find. Do not give them a list of these unnatural items...let them try to find them. Make sure you tell them the designated area.
If you have the toy Bop-It, pass this around and see how far you can get.
Here is another game suggested by Nancy Carter
Summer Snowball Fight (outside activity!)
Materials: Plenty of panty hose, preferably white (local $ store is a great resource) I think one pair will make about 10 "snowballs". 25lbs+ flour
Directions: Put a cup or so of flour into the leg of hose. Tie off as close as possible to the top of the flour. Cut the hose above the knot. You now have your first "snow ball" Try it!! Continue by tying, filling, tying, cutting. It's a bit of prep work - but worth it! The "snowballs" last a long time!
Warning: Be prepared for a mess! White will be all over everything in your yard! Use a leaf-blower to dust off the kids. Get as much as you can cleaned up before it rains. The memory is worth the mess!
1. Mail Order shopping. Tell the kids they have $75.60 (or some odd amount) to purchase an outfit with. See who can come up with the most complete outfit, most unique, etc
2. Letter shopping. Cut out squares with a letter on it (26 - a thru z). Set them on a table with the girls around it. They each pick up a letter and must name an item that can be purchased at
1. a department store (if they name an item within 5-10 seconds they get to move on to another 'store,' if not they continue until they can think of an item starting with the letter)
other stores to 'shop' at:
drug store, grocery store, hardware store, etc.
This game can continue, as if taking a trip...after the shopping, they can continue with cities, rivers, and people.
