Need Ideas for 16Th Birthday Party for a BOY

Do you live near an amusement park? You could get tickets for him and a few friends and drop them off for the day.
For my daughter's 16th she went with a group of friends to Benihana for dinner. I left her with enough money to pay for it so the girls were "on their own" and they had a great time.
I see some of the other moms saying just ask him what he wants to do, but if he's anything like my son you'll probably just get a shrugging "I dunno" LOL!
Good luck :)

Ask him! I'm sure he'll have some ideas.

Can you rent a limo and have the driver (a cool friend of yours) supervise them at a drive in movie? Are there any more drive in movie theaters in your community?

If not have the driver drive them around the city for 2 hours. Party bus...

Check to see if you have a Game Truck franchise in your area. We did a Game Truck for our son's birthday and it was a huge hit. He's a lot younger, but I could see it working great for a teen. It's a big truck filled with video game systems such as Wii and Xbox.

My 16th was a suprise brunch with my girlfriends set up by my mom. She is such a nut and knows I LOVE brunch - even then - lol.
FOr a boy, not car themed, could it be go-cart themed?? go to a cart place and do time trials or relay races? I know there are some issues with safety, so maybe if you rented out the place for an hour or so you would have a little more free reign.

When this summer? If he likes Anime, has he been to Otakon? Its in Baltimore, MD

Maybe rent a room and attend the convention for the weekend? Or rent a limo and he can attend for a day with some friends? We were at the Inner Habor last year at the same time. Had no idea it was going on. People watching was very memorable!

Have him pick a few close friends and do the movie and then let them come back to the house for cake and video games.
YMMV

Even though he's not into sports, Laser Tag or Paintball parties are fun, even for the girls :).

Hi, S.:

Had you thought about either a dress up going out to dinner, or less formal and out to the local restaurant.
Give him an old fashion I.D. Bracelet.

Just a thought.
Happy Birthday.

What does HE want to do? My son is into video games so one party, the guys all brought their computers and they connected them all together and played into the night. Another party, they all went paint balling. Even if EVERYONE has done something, it doesn't mean it's a bad idea. If your son wants to do the pool party thing again, why not? You might think it's a big milestone, but he might just want to hang out with his buddies like he normally does.

What about pizza and laser tag. My son went to an outdoor laser tag party (not in the area) and loved it. Another idea id be Wolf trap. It has a lot of concerts the boys may like.

Good luck!
