I need some pool party ideas.

Great pool party ideas? I need help?

• My friend and I are planning a huge pool party this summer at my place. But we don't know what songs to put on a playlist, what foods to make or buy, how to decorate, or what to do during the party. There are only about 10-15 people coming. We need help! Any ideas?

• Answer:

  Make it Hawaiian/Tropical/Beach theme, play tropical music or wave sounds. Decorate with paper lanterns, Hawaiian flowers, fake palm trees, put tiki touches and any thing else you want. Use a colourful beach towel for a table cloth, scatter seashells around, and use a fish bowl centerpiece with a real gold fish inside. Use the hose for a game of limbo, use a coconut for a game of hot potato, try a relay where two players race to the finish line, balancing a beach ball between their foreheads, supply cheap sunglasses for you and your friends to decorate with craft foam shapes, glue them to the sunglasses and then decorate them with permanent markers or puff paint Make tropical smoothies with those little umbrellas, have a pig rost or just a long sandwich with french bread, cold cuts, and cheese. Fill a beach pail with chips and for dessert blue jello with gummie fish inside and whipped cream for waves.
