Homemade 60th Birthday Party Game

A 60th birthday marks a monumental milestone in the life of any human being; and this milestone can be made downright mischievous with the addition of some handmade games.

Sassy 60, a sample homemade game that could be played at a 60th birthday party, could call upon each guest to dress up as his/her favorite ‘sassy’ celebrity, ranging from Elvis Presley to Madonna, Frank Sinatra to Lady Gaga. The sight of sixty something partygoers dressed as these pop culture icons will be a reward all its own?; then guests could get their rewards in the form of makeshift trophies for Cutest Costume, Most Beautiful Costume, Silliest Costume, and—of course—Sassiest Costume. Awards could include Old Coot-style miniatures, ’60 and Sassy’ T-shirts and pins, posters and plaques that bear Over the Hill sayings, etc.

Another handmade game for a 60th birthday party is called Sweet 60: Remember When? As someone who is turning 60 probably grew up in the 1950s, the hosts could challenge guests to a trivia game which concerns that particular era. Questions could include “What popular TV situation comedy was set during the 1950s?” (Answer: Happy Days), “What music superstar rose to prominence in the 1950s with hits like “Heartbreak Hotel?” (Answer: Elvis Presley), and “What did they call high school dances back in the 1950s?” (Answer: sock hops).

Homemade party games at a 60th birthday party will only add to the fun and frivolity of this milestone birthday celebration. Turning 60 has never been this sassy; or this much fun!
