Do boys have a big turning 16 party or just girls?

luvmy4boyz

I know it's a big thing for a girl to have a "sweet 16" party but what about boys? Do boys usually have a turning 16 party? What would you call it since you wouldn't call it a sweet 16 party?

My oldest are twins and they are turning 15 Oct. 1st and I am just thinking ahead for next year. Over the last couple years they haven't had a birthday party. They have just each chose a friend to sleep over and we gave them money. As they get older it's hard to come up with ideas for a birthday party without it costing you an arm and a leg for the party and then still needing to give a gift.

They said that again this year they are fine with having a friend over and getting money and then just having a small family get together for their birthday. Should I plan something big for next year? What would be some ideas if the answer is yes? I could rent a hall but what would we do there or have for fun? Any other ideas?

Thanks!
thanks for all the answers, lots of good ideas here. I am putting to vote :)

Answer
I just turned 16 in July, and I wanted a party. I didn't want the average party with DJ and everything. So, I decided to have a paintball party. I got a group of my friends and my parents rented us guns, and masks, and a field and we all really enjoyed that.

Maybe they would like something like that.
Hope I helped.

16 year old birthday for boy- need ideas for a great party!?

minnieab

do boys have like girls have sweet sixteen?

Answer
No, guys don't really have anything like a "sweet sixteen" party. Don't let that keep you from throwing him a big party, though! Here are a few ideas:

- "Pool" party: Go to a pool hall and have a birthday 8-ball tournament. Prizes for winners, wings and pitchers of soda for everyone.
- Mega-Video Gaming Party: Rent out a movie theatre and have them hook up his favorite video games to play on the big screen. (I've been to one of these...it's AWESOME!!)
- DJ Dance Party: If he's into music. Have his friends all bring CD's as gifts, and maybe all pitch in $5/each for a gift card to iTunes.

Anyway, those are some ideas to get you going. Good luck!

Creative ways to wrap a birthday present?

crzygurl41

I'm looking for a creative and funny way to open a birthday present..This is for a 16 year old girl and the gift is something shes been wanting for a long time..I want a funny way to wrap it that will be like a game sorta..I was thinking about wrapping in like a little boxes inside a bigger box and going on or wrapping several layers of wrapping paper, but I want something more unique...Any ideas?

Answer
put it inside the box that goes to something else, something she would not want or something that looks like a crazy gift. (like the box from a toaster oven or something.)

My friend did that with his son's gift...an ipod, but he put the ipod box into the box for a travel hotplate! The kid was like "Um...why did you get me this...??? Until he looked inside.. Boy was he surprised!

He's not my boyfriend, but I just want to give him a gift because I owe him a lot. We used to talk so much and we have a lot in common- but then everything stopped. I don't want something too pricey or impossible. Something he could appreciate since well.. I can't talk to him. I just want to surprise this guy by his birthday. I'm planning this weeks ahead. Help? Please list some ideas! I can't throw parties or take him out cause I'm just 15.

Answer
Does he play video games. As far as I know all boys love video games especially xbox. My brother (14 years) and cousins (17years) are addicted to the one of the football games for the xbox. Maybe you should get him that.

MJsStrange

So in 2 weeks time it's my best friend's birthday & I'm a little short on ideas of what to get him. My female friends are so much easier to buy for!
So I'm open to any ideas really (genuine ideas only though please!)
Also I'm willing to spend a little but within reason (considering I'm 15, unemployed & still in school)
Thanks very much!

Answer
Food! Food! Nothing says ' You're an awesome friend ' better than some homemade brownies or cookies. That was my favorite gift when i was 16 was food haha

What should I get my 16 year old brother for his birthday?

TwirlyWhir

Hes really into music but downloads it legally so an itunes gift card is a no. He's kind of into clothes but he's really hard to buy clothes for. He's not into sports but he's just a typical teenage boy who likes going out every night. I cant get him anything really expensive but I don't want to get him a cheap crappy thing. Any ideas would be great, thanks :) x

Answer
Give him $ for his birthday, Check maybe if hes into Electronics like Ipods, thats if he has one..
