Has anyone had any experience with this game? I picked up the Molly version for $7 on the AG site based on a tip on this board
I had started a thread a few weeks ago about B-day party ideas and got some great ideas for the party. DD who is turning 8 in October decided on an American Girl party. It will be a slumber party and I found lots of craft stuff on clearance at Michael's- they're going to design bracelets for themselves and decorate hats and tote bags for the dolls. I am getting all 3 AG movies for them to watch throughout the evening/ night.
So here's my question: DD is so excited to play the mystery game with her friends. We read through the script and I just can't envision how it will go with a group of 6-7 girls ages 7-10. Is it the kind of thing that sounds fun in theory but is awkward or hokey?
The invites ask the girls to come in costume and gives some suggestions, but I thought we would have some things here in case anyone doesn't have something to bring or forgets. So we're asking them to bring a costume, dolls, and a sleeping bag. Is this asking too much? I usually do the kids' parties out of the house and we have never had a slumber party here- I'm probably just over thinking it because I'm nervous and want it to go well.
Any experience with the game, or other thoughts/ suggestions?
