50th Birthday Party Conversation Ideas

Planning a 50th birthday party is the opportune time for using age related conversation starters. From Jay Leno to Bob Hope, laughing about ones age is almost an art and most people find that asking age related questions will bring about more conversation and interesting talk among the guests. Therefore, formulate your questions before hand and have them posted around the room on objects or walls to create a great flow of discussion at the 50th birthday party:
How old are you really?
YOU have how MANY candles on that CAKE?
What year were you born?
You are HOW old?
These questions are ideal for a 50th birthday party and all of them make great conversation starters. Questions such as those listed above will bring a lot of conversation to the party and allow the guests to formulate more questions. Therefore regardless of your ability to talk just looking around the room and discussing a conversation starter will get you involved in the party.

Whether it’s a 50th birthday party or just a gathering for friends, discussing the subject of social media or interactive technology will keep your guests entertained for hours. For instance, set up a video camera next to a laptop and watch the conversation go from one type of technology to another. From video chat and Skype to Facebook and Facepad, most people at the 50th birthday party will be well versed in these subjects. Therefore asking your friends if they have a Facebook page or if they have used Facetime, will grab everyone’s attention and then adding additional conversations that focus on other forms of multi media and technology will get everyone involved in the 50th birthday party and celebration.
