I love the thought of a Detective Party because I have long been a fan of mysteries.
From my early years, when I devoured every Nancy Drew or Hardy Boy mystery I could find, to today, when I still love to read, what (and play!) detective.
My favorite detective movies are the old Thin Man Movies. Not exactly appropriate for little kids - but I love them! Tracking down "who done it" with humor and 1930's splendor...they are great fun!
Whether you are planning a detective theme party or mystery party, the theme will involve a mystery or scavenger hunt of some kind.
Having a slumber party?
A mystery can also lend itself well as slumber party games, with a mystery or hunt developing throughout the evening. It is good because you'll have lots of time on your hands, and can really spread out the clues and control how quickly the solution occurs.
