Hey, can I have some teenagers' opinions on this pool party idea?

Question

What kinds of suggestions do you have for such a party? It's a casual thing with my friends. What kinds of food would you serve? Keep in mind this is early in the morning!! Is that weird? I thought it'd be cool! I don't want to spend summer lounging around... ;)

and what kind of music would you play? artists/songs/playlists would help!

any other suggestions feel free to add them....thanx!!!

Answer 1

Okay I'm 22, so not a teenager - but also not too far off. An early morning pool party would be cool. I would bake some mini muffins.  I would do a breakfast burrito bar maybe - some flour tortillas, make a big batch of scrambled eggs, cook off some breakfast sausage (not the kind in links or patties, just the kind that looks like regular ground beef), put out some cheddar cheese, sour cream, and salsa and people can make their own breakfast burritos. They are easy to eat because people can hold them in their hands. I might also do a fruit salad.  I would also maybe make a breakfast juice punch. Mix equal parts of OJ and Cranberry juice with some sprite. Slice some oranges and float them on top.

I personally love old songs - like you can't go wrong with 80's pop music and 90's grunge at any party, but maybe that is too old for your generation. I would do a playlist like:

Thriller - Michael Jackson

Lyla - Oasis

More than a Feeling - Boston

Our Lips are Sealed - Go Go's

Love Shack - B-52's

Hey Mickey - Toni Basil

Wrong Way - Sublime

Machinehead - Bush

Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana

Jesse's Girl - Rick Springfield

Love is a Battlefield - Pat Benetar

I don't know, maybe I'm just a dork. Oh well, have fun!

Answer 2

Naturally you need to have chips, about half potato and the other half corn..... sodas, ummmmm........... watermelon....... breakfast foods........ songs, ummm...... really what you like. I really don't get why your having a morning pool party, but those are my suggestions

Answer 3

If you're doing this in the morning you DEFINITELY need some iced coffee(&tea because not everyone likes coffee).

Answer 4

Lots of Techno music, or you could go low-key music if its in the morning. With like:

Death Cab for Cutie- (New CD Title, not song) Narrow Stairs

Chris Brown- (Any songs, teens love him. including me)

Try:

Augustana- (New CD,) Can't Love, Can't Hurt

BOYS LIKE GIRLS!!! - (Self titled CD, Boys like Girls)

Cartel- (Also Self titled)

Hellogoodbye- Zombies! Aliens! Vampires! Dinosaurs! (CD Name)

Kayne West- (You know the song Stronger? Yeah, thats him)

The Killers- (CD named Sam's Town)

That should help. Most are Album names, but you can go onto itunes, rapsody (or however you spell it) etc. and look up  different songs that you like, and just pick songs, stick them on your ipod, or mp3 player w/e. and YOur SET!!

Answer 6

Make some platters of fruit, pineapple, watermelon, grapes etc. Also, crackers and dips. Keep it simple and dont go too crazy with food. You could make some punch and serve it in hollowed out pineapples and coconuts.
