FREE PARTY GAME - SUGAR AND SPICE TREASURE HUNT: The hostess hides a jewelry box full of old fashioned costume jewelry (brooches, necklaces, bracelets, etc.) – the perfect fashion accessories for the dress up game. Then, provide riddles or poems to help the children figure out where the items are hid. Each clue takes them to another, and to another, and so on. For example, a starting clue could be something like: “Welcome ladies, a treasure you will find, if you follow all the clues that I have left behind. Ring! Ring! Hello? If you need to find the phone, where would you go?” Of course the guests will head straight to the nearest phone where another clue tag hangs waiting for them. Other clue hiding locations could be in plants, under chairs, behind pictures, in the garden, anywhere inside or outside that you can think of. Make the clues easy enough the guests can find them quickly and have enough clues to run around having fun. Finally, have them find the jewelry box and then they can all put on jeweled accessories to go with their hats and dresses! Or, alternatively, you can have various plastic gems, trims, and other shiny decorative items in the jewelry box and then have basic wood cutouts with jewelry pins attached on the back of them. The guests can design their own jeweled treasures by gluing stones, trims, laces, and other shiny items onto the wooden shape cutouts. Each guest then has a great keepsake of theSugar and Spice Tea Party afternoon. Once they have their proper accessories, it is time for the fashion show. Put on some music, create a run way and watch them model their fashions. Taking digital pictures will allow you to send each of the young ladies home with pictures of their modeling debut.
