Group Activities for Teen Girls

Nail Polish Game

• Place a basket of nail polish on a table or in the floor and have all the girls sit around it in a circle. Select one girl to spin first and she will pick a color. She must spin the bottle of nail polish in the middle of the circle. Whomever the lid of the bottle points at when it stops spinning has to paint one of her nails. She will select another nail polish bottle and spin it. The girls will keep painting their nails and spinning the bottles. The first girl to have all her nails painted wins the game. To make the game last longer, let the girls do their toes too.

Jewelry Box Dares

• Purchase several inexpensive jewelry boxes or empty boxes from your local craft store. Write down several dares on different slips of paper and put one dare in each box. For example, write, "Stand on your head for two minutes," "Do a funky dance for one minute," "Sing the chorus to your favorite song" and "Act like your favorite animal." Label each dare with points, such as 10 for easy dares and 40 for hardest dares. Put all the boxes in the middle of the floor and have the teens sit in a circle. One at a time a teen will select a box and must complete the dare inside. If the teen completes the dare, she receives the points and the next player goes. Let each teen have the same amount of chances to complete dares. The teen with the most points at the end of the game wins.

Blind Makeovers

• All the girls will stand in a single file line and the first girl in line must put on a blindfold. The blindfolded teen will turn to the second teen in line and attempt to do her makeup. Have someone standing beside the blindfolded teen to give her the makeup to use. She must feel the makeup to guess what it is and apply it to the right spot. Once she is finished, she will put the blindfold on the next girl in line who will do the makeup of the girl behind her. The last teen in line will do the makeup for first girl in line. After all the makeovers are completed take pictures and award prizes to the best, silliest, scariest and messiest makeup jobs.
