18th Birthday: The Turning Point

Know someone celebrating his or her 18th birthday? Chances are they have mixed emotions. On the one hand, there is the excitement of becoming an adult and all the freedoms (and responsibilities) that come with it. But some 18 year olds aren't in a big hurry to grow up, preferring to stay a child a little while longer. So how do you celebrate this split-personality birthday? Consider giving the birthday boy or girl a collection of small gifts that reflect both their youth and maturity. Stage a scavenger hunt so he or she can look for the gifts via clues and wordplay. It's an adult party game filled with the playfulness of childhood -- the perfect 18th celebration!
