Planning a Greek/Ancient Greece party and looking for resources? We have what you need and MORE! Greek/Ancient Greece Party Party Ideas Visit your local library and photocopy old maps (found in their reference section.) Black and white copies can then be taken to your local print shop/copy center to have blown up to any size you want (3' x 4' feet.) When they are blown up that large, they get very 'grainy,' which a great affect for antique maps. These can then be either hung on the walls, or rolled up and placed around the party/event. Set up a creative Ancient Greece themed scavenger hunt activity. Either create your own or download one off the Internet (CLICK HERE) Play Greek Themed Bingo! The great part about this game is that it's VERSATILE!!! Give everyone a board at the beginning and then call out squares throughout the party. It will keep the activities moving. This is especially great to have on hand in the event that there is an unexpected downtime...just call out some extra squares! Click below for an Greek themed Bingo set to download: Name your location. Invite your guests to the Acropolis or the Parthenon, etc. By naming it and referring to that name you'll create a definite place and time for your guests. It's amazing the credibility that is given when it is given a name. Have some live characters roaming around, mingling with the guests. How about a travel guide pitching his/her newest tour all over the ruins of Ancient Greece? Or how about a local villager peddling her wares? These characters do not need to be present for long periods of time. In fact, it is best if they are not. Let them come and then go. Your guests will be incredibly impressed. For great temple columns, call around to a couple
local construction companies and ask where they purchase sono tubes. These
can be bought in a variety of widths and sizes and are very sturdy. These look REALLY great but you'll need someone who has a very simple computer graphics program and the basic knowledge to use it. Download some nice photos from the Internet of ancient Greece (you should be overwhelmed by the selection you find on the Internet) and load them into the graphics program. You can do this by 'right clicking' with your mouse on any picture you like, then selecting 'Save As' among the options. Save these to a disk or your hard drive. Across the top (or in any other place, depending on how creative you want to get with it ) put the words of the location (i.e. The Parthenon, The Acropolis, etc.) Then, in one of the corners put a large number essentially, you are making a large stamp. Once you have the image the way you want it, print it out and decorate cut the edges all around in the fashion of a large stamp (fiskar scissors do a great job.) These look great just about anywhere. HINT: These can be done in assembly-line fashion and can be cranked out relatively fast once you get into the 'groove' of it. |
