Input Please!

My YW are in charge of the Mother/Daughter All Girl Activity at the end of May.
It will be in the evening and we only have about an hour. There might be 20 or so girls there.
Do you have any ideas on games or activities or even a theme?
Thanks. This just got sprung on me yesterday, so I haven't had a chance to meet with my girls since we had our class presidency meeting the day before they let me know we were in charge of it.
Thanks in advance, because I know you will come up with great ideas for me to use!

Maybe a spa night - pedicures anyway - Step Out in Style or something.

Beauty nights are always a hit with young women.

Do you have someone who could do a "makeover" - kind of a "What Not to Wear Night."


Just thinking out loud.

And here I am once again confessing to being a lurker - ever since you guessed Ned's name I pop in occasionally.

I had to comment because we did this when I was a Mia Maid for a Mother/Daughter activity. We took something out of our mother's closet without them knowing - an item from the past - and used it for a fashion show. One fairly quiet girl wore her mother's 100% polyester bell bottom flower clad jumpsuit. I laughed so hard I peed my pants! A good time was had by all.

Maybe "Things My Mother Taught Me!"

For our Activity Days mother/daughter thing in May we are going to have a cake decorating contest.

The girls and their mothers will supply their own cake and decorations and have about 45 minutes to decorate it. Then they will be judged and prizes will be awarded.

We are still in the planning stages, but it sounds like it will be a blast.

We just did Cake Decoratinga s a joint activity and they LOVED IT!
I am intruiged by the fashion show from their other's closet idea. That could be funny.
Spa night would be fun, too, but I am worried that we will have too many people there.
I suggested basketball, Dad, but they didn't go for it!

We did a fashion show one year too, and it was hilarious! Some of the mothers were mortified! My mom was in charge one year a while back and did a wedding dress show with the mom's wedding gowns. Problem is, is that a lot of mom's don't have their wedding gowns, or don't want their kids using them as dress up items. Spa night would be fun, as would daughters making over the mom's without them seeing until the final reveal. Just some thoughts.

I like the fashion show idea also. Having the girls "interview" their moms about whatever, their teenage years, etc.--a panel of sorts--is always popular also (in my old ward we did that as well as have the girls interview the boys in the ward about dating--also a huge hit).
