Enjoy your own card party.
Card parties are a great way to enjoy the company of friends while engaging in some competition. Card parties have been around for hundreds of years and are still a great way to get together with a group of people. Enjoy classic games that everyone knows or bring in newer games for everyone to learn. No matter the occasion, card parties are the perfect way to relax, enjoy company and even come out winning a few prizes. Does this Spark an idea?
Instructions
1. Send out your invitations. Include the date, time and location of the party. You can even decorate your invites to look like playing cards to separate your guests into groups.
2. Set up your card tables, decorations, refreshments and prizes. Set up a separate table for snacks and drinks, and a smaller one for assorted prizes. Make sure all the tables are easily accessible and not too crowded. If necessary, set up your refreshments table in a different room that is still easy to get to.
Hang your decorations. If a theme was chosen for the party, make sure the decorations and snacks fit the idea.
3. Choose a few games to play. There are hundreds to choose from, so pick three or four that are easy to learn and/or widely known.
4. Print out the rules for the games you have chosen, with extras for each group of players. This will keep the games running smoothly since everyone will have easy access to their own rule sheet.
5. Play your games. Once someone wins, have them choose a prize and pick the next game.
