Oster Awards - 12 Year Old Birthday Party
It was fantastic! I don't think I have ever heard more giggling, screaming, and laughing from a group of girls in my entire life! The directions were easy to follow, the set up was great. The invitations created much excitement leading gup to the party. We even had multiple moms ask if they were allowed to join in the fun (they weren't!). I highly recommend this for any group of young ladies!

Awesome Party
We did this for my daughter’s 12th birthday party. They did a great job of playing their roles and dressing in character! They had the best time and there was plenty of help in the papers to answer my questions. 3 of the 8 girls guessed the mystery thief correctly which I felt was perfect. It wasn’t too hard or too easy! Thank you for the fun party!

Murder Mystery (stolen Oster award)
Was amazing! Girls had sooo much fun. Was for my 11 year old daughters birthday party

So much fun!
This was easy enough for kids to follow, they just needed a little time opening up and mirroring how to play a character roll. So much fun!

Adorable for 9-10 year old girls
Had a surprise bonfire mystery party for my 9year old daughter and her friends. They all came dressed up and we had accessories too. They key to the game is being really organized before, getting the clues put together in envelopes and everything. There were times I had to simplify some of the clues slightly for a younger audience but overall they understood it well and it went very smoothly! They had a blast !!

The best time
I was worried that the kids wouldn’t be able to follow along, but they absolutely loved it. Once they got started it pretty much ran itself. They party packet was extremely organized from planning extra time for late guests to receipts for certain foods to match the party we loved it! So much better than what I was going to try and do on my own!!!

Best Party for a 12 year old
My daughter turned 12 and wanted a sleep over party. That was out of the question. I hunted down something unique and that will keep kids off their phones. This was amazing. We (daughter and I) decided less than a week before, so I purchased the digital download. Make sure you single page print it out, not double sided. The party was laid out and easy to plan and decorate, there are plenty of "Awards night themes" at the party stores. I really enjoyed the sample timeline that was available. We told the girls to dress up according to their character. We served sparkling apple cider in champagne flutes as a welcome and intro to the game. We had different snacks to separate the rounds. The girls enjoyed being in character, however they might not have gotten the gist of "mingling" to find out information. It was a loud loud party. The bonus games helped spread out the time and give them a chance to come out of character. Everyone enjoyed themselves and no one was on a phone! I will probably do this again in a few years.

Had a great time
Just wanted to let you know that I have been doing your mystery parties here at LHS for years. Just did this one back in March and we had a wonderful time. Had to condense Rounds 1 and 2 together for times sake but overall it was very well received. Looking forward to doing more in the future.
