Answers:
Definately, theme it somethin she might be into!. Mine was pirate themed!. Make decorations, hit up the local craft store!. Make it a potluck!. As far as games, do something like twister, try games from her high school years, even middle school yearsWww@FoodAQ@Com

I'm not sure how old your daughter is, to know what kind of games, etc!. but here are some ideas!.

For food, go with what SHE likes!. It's her party, she should have the kind of food that is her favorites and what she likes!. You can do a bbq with hamburgers and hot dogs, and have some topppings!. Lettuce and tomato and ketchup for the burgers and mustard and saurkrut for the hot dogs and some french fries and salads, etc!. If she likes pizza you can do that!. You can do a taco bar with all the toppings!. etc!. Ask her what she would like to have for food, give her some options, if she would like to do a bbq, pizza, taco bar, 6 foot sandwich, and some food like baked ziti and chicken, etc, let her have what she likes instead of anyone else!.

However old she is, ice cream is always a hit! Have an ice cream bar! Get chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry ice cream and some toppings!. Sprinkles, chocolate syrup, whipped cream, and marachino cherries, and those waffle cone bowls they sell in the grocery store and let them make their own sundaes!.

You can also get a volleyball net and let them play volleyball and badmitten!.

If they can get wet, let them do water balloon fights!.

Have a pie eating contest, but instead of pie, fill the pie tins with whipped cream and whoever finishes first wins!

For decorations, do the balloons and streamers in the color of the school that she graduated from!. It's normal, but it's very festive and it's very party-like!.

You can also do the tablecloths, napkins, and plates in the same colors as the balloons and streamers!.

You can also do some kind of sign in board, either a piece of foam board decorated, or something that her guests can sign and write good wishes to her!.

I hope some of these help and that she has a great party! Congratulations to your daughter on her graduation!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Pasta dishes -- mac and cheese, lasagna and spaghetti those are always good and affordable!. and you can have pizza with it and salads and any kinds of appetizers like bread and spinach dip (thats my fav!)

or you could have a bbq with burgers, hot dogs, sausages, steaks, barbecued corn, etc!. and then for appetizers-- chips and dip, bread and spinach dip, mini egg rolls, mozzarella sticks, etc

decorations-- i cant really think of anything besides the regular graduation theme!. or maybe an hawaiian beach theme!?

games-- pinata, pin the tail (on a picture of your daughter), maybe some sports games like a flag football game, a race, or an obsticle course, etc

hope this helped!!Www@FoodAQ@Com

I am assuming that it is a high school graduation!. I know when I had my kids graduation open houses, they had other open houses to go to and just stayed until they ate and visited with realitives and then left!. So games were out!. We put up a screen house for the food and cake and decorated it in the school colors and a picture albums of the kids covering their years from K-Graduation!. It was fun to look at all the old pictures and to see how they had changed!. Grandmas and Grandpas enjoyed it too!. Good LuckWww@FoodAQ@Com

Do a theme party!.!.!.!.I through my GF a hawaiian graduation party a when we graduated and she loved it there were hawaiian decorations and food!.(go on hawaiian party ideas!.com) Surprisingly it was cheaper than i thought it would be!!! Hope this helped!Www@FoodAQ@Com

I would do party subs and pizza with chips and salsa, and if you're cool maybe a keg of beer!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
