Guests in a group should come to the party wearing clothes people wear in that continent. For instance, a guest belonging to Asia could come in a Japanese kimono, or Dutch clothing and wooden shoes for Europe. The group then gets a list of things to look for in different locations. The things they will look for should be things that represent their continent assignment.

Flags can also be used in place of the different hidden items. The group should correctly identify each flag as their own. Make sure each group searches for equal number of items. This isn’t possible if you’re having them search for flags, because some continents have very few countries. Supply the deficiency with items from that continent.

Finally, the food you prepare should have international touch to it in keeping with the theme.

Costume parties are loads of fun, but it will be more fun if you combine it with a little Scavenger Hunt. A Costume Scavenger Hunt Party lets your guests enjoy the fun they get from Scavenger Hunts and Costume Parties at once. Here’s how it works.

First, you need to create different characters for each of your guests to pick or assign them each with one. Each character has its own costumes, accessories and even hairstyles. These are the items they will need to put on to look like their assigned characters, but first they have to look for them. A map pointing to the hiding locations for each character should be given to each guest.

Examples of characters are Santa Claus, Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, Michael Jordan and even Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

Mozart, for example needs a wig, 18th century clothing, music sheets. Michael Jordan needs his #23 Jersey, shorts, basketball while Michael Jackson his shiny coat and pants, wig etc.

Make sure every character has equal numbers of props/costumes.

At the finish line the hunters should have worn all their costumes they have found. When everyone has finished looking, the costume party has begun.

Make your next party a little less boring than before by throwing a Scavenger Hunt Party. Now you will be the talk of the town because your guests won’t soon forget all the fun memories they had at your celebration. First, you have to decide on a theme. An example is the Pirates Theme.

You should start by making invitations that have the theme design. A cool idea would be a message in a bottle. Place your note in a small bottle, put some sand in it, cover it with cork. The recipient’s name should be on a tag hanging by the bottle’s neck. Design the bottle with skull marks or anything that will make it look the theme.

Have your guests come in Pirate costumes, or better yet create simple costumes for them to wear. It could be pirate hats, printed with a skull and crossbone design, a hanky around their head, or black eyepatches and a hook in place of the hand.

Give them a list of things to look for; objects you hid in different loactions. Point them to the items by giving them a map of the locations. An old cloth map, the one you see in pirate movies would be cool. And since they are pirates, make the objects in keeping with the theme, items that would normally be associated with pirates.

Here are a few examples:

skull, treasure chest, pirate flag, anchor, ropes, goldbars, jewels(fake or course), pearls, paddle, captain’s hook, guns, swords, parrot and gold coins.

It is up to you to set the rules or modify anything to your liking. The finish line should be the party itself where you could eat and talk about the fun time you had during the hunt.
