80s Party Activities

Part of the fun of this party will be re-living favorite moments from the 80s. For the 30-year-olds, that means cartoons, video games and music icons!

1. Who Am I?
Write down a favorite 80s pop icon on a sticky-back office label. Have everyone wear it on the back of their shirt (so they cannot see). Then, have guests mingle, asking questions about who they are. Here's a fun list to take you back:

• Alf
• Mr. T
• Skeletor
• Papa Smurf
• Michael Jackson
• Madonna
• Max Headroom
• She-Ra
• Jem
• Punky Brewster

2. Freeze Dance
Crank up an awesome 80s music playlist and have someone DJ. Everyone has to dance using cheesy 80s moves, of course, and then when the music stops, they must freeze! Anyone caught still grooving is out! Try this playlist:

1. Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, Cyndi Lauper
2. Thriller, Michael Jackson
3. Like a Virgin, Madonna
4. Jump, Van Halen
5. Shake Your Love, Debbie Gibson
6. You Give Love a Bad Name, Bon Jovi
7. Born in the U.S.A., Bruce Springstein
8. Ghostbusters, Ray Parker, Jr.
9. Walk Like an Egyptian, The Bangles
10. I Think We're Alone Now, Tiffany
