YW ideas

I am in the Young Women in our ward and we did some planning the other day but it seems like we are running out of ideas. We did a "P Party" one time, but the girls thought that it was way weird, but I love that idea. So if anyone has some ideas, speak up. Thanks!!!

Here are some fun activities I've seen:

1) Ramen Noodle cook off - who can dress up the noodles the best.
2) Photo scavenger hunt - take pictures of various locations around town. The clue for the next location is a picture of it. Make the pictures sort of cryptic so it takes some thinking about where it is.
3) How well do you know each other - have everyone bring an item that represents them. In secret, place all the items out on a table and put numbers by each item. Have the girls go through and try and guess which object represents who. Then go through all the objects and reveal who the person is and why they brought that object. The person with the most correct gets a prize.
4) Cat eye hike - buy some reflective material (hardware store) and cut it out in the shape of eyes. Set up the course prior and probably have to do it in the dark too. Put the eyes on trees leading to where ever you want. The girls will bring flashlights and when they shine the light on the eyes they will go to that tree and find the next set of eyes, and so on.
5) Black and white party- Every one dresses up nice (relatively) in black and white. All the decorations are black and white. Have "fancy" food. Watch black and white old movies.
6)Where's Waldo? - This is a scavenger hunt to find people in a mall. Get people from the ward to be "Waldo". They can wear disguises if they want. All the kids have a list of people to find and when they find a person, the "Waldo" signs their paper.

What a fun calling! I'm jealous!

i remember the "P" parties. I thought they were awesome (seriously!)! Then again, i am a nerd...
i have no real good ideas. I've always thought that trying to think of ideas for mutual would be very taxing.
