A La Quinceanera birthday festivity marks a significant milestone in the life of a young Latin woman; and this occasion can be made even more special with the addition of some memorable handmade games.
Homemade games for a La Quinceanera party could include She Who Holds the Rose; a sentimental game that centers around the floral trademark of La Quinceanera tradition. Guests could stand in a circle and pass a genuine, fragrant red rose from one person to another. Each person who holds the rose could relate a special memory or sentiment about the birthday girl. This guest of honor, the last to hold the rose, then will decide who told the Sweetest Story, the Funniest Story, the Story Best Told, The Most Sentimental Story, etc. Prizes for these honors could include pins, necklaces, and rings (probably costume jewelry made of plastic, ceramic or polystone), as well as miniature artworks that depict the likeness of a red rose.
A lighter handmade game for a La Quinceanera birthday bash could be Pin the Piñata, a game in which teams of guests stand around handcrafted piñatas—the more colorful the better—and take turns batting them around. The first person to crack open a particular piñata gets all of the loot inside, which could include candy, colorful faux jewelry, assorted trinkets, etc.
A La Quinceanera birthday celebration is a time of warmth, reflection, sweet memories, and of course a rollicking good time; that is with a little help from some rockin’ homemade games. Viva La Quinceanera!
