Games allow adults to communicate and express their feelings and exercise their brainpower. A few include: Murder Mystery, Great Minds Think Alike, Two Truths and a Lie, and lots more.
- 90’s Costume-Themed Party: Outfits like baggy jeans, T-shirts with bands, jean jackets, and crop-tops were famous in the 90s and have found their way back. If you have friends and relatives who you shared those moments with in the 90’s, this activity is definitely for you.
