30th Birthday Childhood Game Night

Did you grow up beating your little brother in Monopoly or wearing out the pegs of your Battleship game? If so, a new match up is in order. Play your favorite childhood games for a 30th birthday party, and see how much fun grown-ups can have rolling dice to move a few spaces. Here are two ways to set it up.

• Choose several games that don't take a lot of time to play. Chutes and Ladders and Candy Land are good choices. Divide into groups to start playing, and then move to different tables until everyone has a chance to play each game.
• Have a signature game (you'll need several game sets) that everyone plays. Winners play each other until only one person is left. Clue is a fun option for this type of party.
