Any ideas for luau/beach graduation party?

Question

we've got cute ideas for invites and food and stuff.

but we have no activities. :[

we need enertaining, not nessicarily child games, but enough to keep us paying attention. not like cheesy 3rd grader birthday party games.

we're inside a fairly big room.

team relays or something would be fun.

but we kind of want it to relate to a beachy/luau theme.

Answer 1

limbo is a must. and there's this one hula hoop relay where you have a stack of 10 or so hula hoops and everyone stands in a line holding hands next to the stack. then when you say go, the person closest to the hula hoops has to get it on them self and pass it along the line without letting go. also, you should have a hula contest.

Answer 2

Are you gonna be at a house? If so, use the backyard for A SLIP N SLIDE! Seriously. I had one at my Sweet 16. If you can swing it, see if you can rent a huge blow up Slip n Slide. If not, here's what I did because we couldn't find one. Get a large tarp and weigh it down with bricks or rope if possible (therefore no one hits the bricks). Cover your tarp in water and soap and you're good to go! If you have a pool make sure you hose off before going in. It was a HUGE hit at my party. Loads of fun.

We had hula hoop contests at my 13th Birthday Party which was a Luau. Simple, but very fun and full of laughs.

You can do a relay by making obsticles involving sand, pineapples, beach balls, hula hoops, sandals, and anything beach like. Get creative. I don't know what supplies you have.

Pineapple eating contests could be fun.

If it's possible to build/get a sand box... have a sand castle building contest.

Pin the skirt on the Hula Girl. Get an artsy friend to draw it out and make some skirts. I know it's childish, but come on... I graduated last year and I know we all like to laugh at child games. Brings back good memories at a very nostolgic time.

Along the lines of childish, musical chairs with hawian music in the background. Seriously, some of the best games are childhood games.
