Girls Night Party Games

From LoveToKnow Party

Including some girls night party games into your next ladies outing can add some fun and hilarious memories that your girlfriends will cherish for years to come.

The Fun of Girls Night Party Games

Inside jokes endure for decades, and they help keep friendships strong. Every woman wants to be part of an inner circle of girlfriends, and having some positive and silly memories to reflect upon can help keep you in a social fold. We all hope to connect, and it’s vital for our well being and emotional health. Planning regular “girls nights” with a tight knit group of ladies is one way to start an easy tradition that will promote great memories and also provide you all with something to look forward to when your professional life or family situation becomes overwhelmingly stressful.

A girls night can include drinks and dinner out on the town, or a quiet night in with sweet treats and a favorite chick flick in the DVD player. However, no matter where you go, good girls night party games are a must on any agenda.

Games, especially those played in teams, are perfect for a ladies get together, and can help newcomers get to know the other members of your social circle that much better. Pair up long-time friends with a woman new to your church or neighborhood to give everyone an awkwardness-free way to get friendly. Games are also good for groups of friends where one or two members may be struggling with alcoholism or another serious issue. Rather than breaking out the champagne, bring out the game boards, keeping all members of your group happy and healthy the whole night through.

Girls Night Out Game Ideas

If you are in need of some simple game ideas, these can be played either at someone’s house or in a restaurant setting. They are cheap and easy, making spontaneity possible if you like to play the night by ear.

Ring My Bell

Purchase an inexpensive bell and ring it to get everyone’s attention. Next, ask a list of questions and the first person to answer each gets a point. Whoever has the most points at the end is the winner. You can also give every woman her own bell so she can “ring” in her answer, rather than shouting it out.

Some questions you could ask include:
Who has...

  • the oldest car?
  • lost the most weight?
  • the most kids?
  • the most piercings?
  • been married the longest?

Who is...

  • the oldest? (Only ask this one with a crowd that won't take offense!)
  • wearing the most red (or black, pink, green, etc.)?
  • the newest in town?

You can use any sort of questions you want, making the game more fun-loving or risqué based upon your outing’s theme or occasion.

Cookie Cook Off

If you are having a girls night near a holiday, you can have a cookie cook off. This can be done in one of two ways. First, each attendee can bake her favorite cookie before arrival. Then, the guests each bring a plate of the cookies to the party and as a group you have a taste-test contest to decide who has the absolute best cookie recipe.

You can also purchase premade dough, or bake a bunch of blank sugar cookies ahead of time, and have a decorating contest. Divide your guests into groups and provide plenty of decorating supplies. Time the teams and see who can decorate the best batch of cookies in five minutes. The best part of this game? Your prize comes in the eating!

I Never

Playing “I Never” is a popular favorite. Some women can get pretty wild with this game, so be careful if alcohol is involved. The game tends to be played with one person saying “I never” and following it with a statement. For example, “I never speed on the freeway on the way to work.” Everyone who has done what the statement mentions, must take a drink. Friends may also enjoy a tamer, non-alcoholic version of "I Never".

Girls night party games are great fun no matter what you decide to play. It is all about the quality of ladies you invite to spend the evening with you, as friendship and great dynamics can make any game great. Still not sure what to play? Don’t forget about those vintage board games in the closet – they can also make for a memorable night.

I was going to suggest What's a Dame to Do? also. I agree with LorieDorie. It is by far the best game my friends and I have played. We've tried many others, but once we found this nobody wanted to play anything else. Now we have "Game Nights" instead of girls nights to play it. Try it, you'll love it!
