Suggestions for a Psychology Themed Party?!
HELP! Any advice or input would really make this party special for my young man who has worked so hard and overcome so much to make this big day happen!!!!
Answers: My son is graduating this May. He has been accepted into college already and is going to be studying psychology-therefore we wish to throw him a psychology themed party. However, we are STUCK for ideas! What favors, decorations, food, gifts, activities, etc. would you suggest for a psychology party?

Decorate the place with ink blots.
Make a jello brain (http://www.prankplace.com/brainmold.htm)
Have goofy personality tests available
Give favors of cheap lingerie as "Freudian Slips"
:) cute the first thing I though was to turn the place into an asylum. which may offend some people.
You can do a stereotypical , couch , office thing, and ask the invites to act like patients. I think if you knew what specially he is going into would help. There are many branches. If you find out, I can help you come up with some details. I just did the undergraduate but have friends in the gradutate field. For food. Well, once more it goes with the speciality. If it is studies, well do the sandwich since they don't have time for much. School pscyh. How about cafeteria/school food. Clinical- maybe some thing fancy. A professor, maybe a classroom setting, counseling office. Bunch of details. But focus on one. DOnt try to do many, you will just get overwhelmed.
Yikes-that's a hard theme. You could decorate with Freud's couch or a rat maze of some kind. For food you could have some kind of reference to Pavlov's dogs (salivating). Or ring a bell and bring each food item out one at a time and joke about conditioned response. Congratulations to your son and to your family also. As any good psychologist would tell you- raising a successful well adjusted teen in this day and age is an experiment with a positive outcome.
