It's always fun to be with friends, but doing the same thing over and over can get boring in some cases. If you are looking for new ways to have fun with your friends, there are many things you can do. Read on to learn new ways to have fun with friends!
Steps
Method 1 of 2: Have Fun Outdoors
Step 1. Go to the park
It is a fun activity for all ages, and free of charge. Go with your friends and play some sports, even just with a Frisbee or with the kids on the playground.
- You can organize a game of football or basketball. You may even find new friends if you ask other people to join you.
- Going for a run with a friend in the park can be a great way to have fun with friends if you're busy. This is an already planned activity that will be more fun with a friend by your side.
- If you have children, taking them to the park with friends can make the whole experience more fun for everyone. Bring some food and organize a picnic. You will be able to talk to your friends while the children play.
Step 2. Meet for dinner or lunch
You can go to your favorite restaurant or eat at home if you're short on cash or don't want to go out in public. You will have the chance to chat with friends while you eat or cook.
- If you go out, make sure you and your friends like the place and that everyone can afford it.
- Inviting friends over can save you money and be a lot of fun. Invite your friends over and offer them a glass of wine while you cook or, better yet, ask everyone to bring their favorite dish!
Step 3. Go to your favorite bar or pub
It's fun when all the waiters know you and what you are going to order, and it can be a great time to relax and have a quiet chat with your friends.
Choose a time of the week or month to meet. For example, try organizing a night out on the first Friday of the month to catch up on the latest news. Having fixed dates is useful because it is easier to organize and therefore more people will be able to participate
Step 4. Volunteer together
Volunteering is more fun when done with people you like. You can enjoy yourself knowing that you are helping the planet with your actions. It will help you feel good about yourself while doing something useful and enjoying yourself.
- Volunteer for a few hours a week at the municipal kennel. You can play with the animals and help out.
- Sign up for a support program for children in need.
- Take turns at the local soup kitchen. If you can, also try to donate food.
Step 5. Go to an outdoor festival or concert
Many cities organize free or low-cost concerts, outdoor movies, plays and festivals. Check your local newspaper for these events.
- Check if food is allowed to be brought to the event. In some cases it is allowed to bring food and drinks to concerts and open-air plays.
- Bring blankets and folding chairs, if allowed.
Step 6. Shop at the flea markets
Looking for cheap treasures in flea markets can be a very fun activity to do with friends. Search the local newspaper for announcements of flea markets during the summer months, or look for them by taking a drive.
Step 7. Plan a camping trip
Camping is a great way to have fun with friends and reconcile with nature. You don't even have to go too far. You can visit one of the local camping sites or even do it in your own backyard.
If you decide to go camping with friends, make sure everyone brings what they need
Step 8. Compete in a 5 kilometer race
During the warmer months, races are organized throughout the country. Find a local one and sign up. A run can be a great way to have fun with friends, even if you don't like running. Almost all long-distance races have different starting times for those who want to tackle them by walking. Sign up with friends, exercise and have fun!
Method 2 of 2: Have fun indoors
Step 1. Organize a movie or TV series marathon
Find a weekend off and get your friends together to watch the entire Rocky or Star Wars series. Between one episode and another you can discuss what you like about the series.
- Make sure you have plenty of food on hand. Snacks make a movie marathon a lot more fun.
- Take breaks from time to time to stretch your muscles or walk outdoors.
- Have fun watching bad movies, especially classic cult movies. You can do this even with poorly written books. Take turns reading it aloud and challenge yourself to those who can not laugh longer. You can also turn it into a game (perhaps for drinking, if you are the right age, or otherwise using chocolate or candy as prizes).
Step 2. Remember the old days
This is especially fun if you have been friends for a long time. Talk about the things you did together a long time ago. Often your friends will remember events that you have forgotten, so you can exchange stories about the things you have done together.
Try looking for objects from those moments. Look for old notes that you passed through or a diary that you wrote together. Maybe you made dolls or played soccer together. The objects will help you remember the moments spent together
Step 3. Plan a game night
Games can be a lot of fun, for adults, teens and children. Think of card, board and video games and find the best ones for your group.
- Card games are a good choice, because almost everyone has a deck of cards and there are many simple games, to be played in a group or with a few people. If you play poker, use chocolates or candies for betting. In this way it will be fun and not money that will be the prize to be won.
- For board games, try Risiko, Scarabeo, and Cluedo. The latter in particular is an easy to learn and fun game because it will have you accusing your friends of murder.
- Multiplayer games are also very suitable for a group of friends. Host a Super Mario night or a challenge to the latest car racing game.
Step 4. Organize a party
There are many different ways to throw a fun party, even with a few people present. Do something creative and you will have fun.
- Throw a dance party. Set up shuffle on your iPod, dim the lights and hit the dance floor. You can watch your favorite music video and have fun imitating the dance moves. You will be able to dress very elegantly and learn waltz steps.
- Throw a themed party. You can choose the theme of a mysterious murder in the 1920s or a tea at the Ascot racecourse. It all depends on your imagination and that of your friends. Consider the interests of the group and choose accordingly.
- Throw a kitchen party. Choose recipes to cook together, all participate in the shopping and prepare them as a group. You will be able to laugh at your failures and rejoice in your successes.
Step 5. Visit a local museum or art gallery with friends
You can visit the most recent exhibitions together and talk about what you saw once they came out. Museums and art galleries also often organize special events such as lectures, film plays, and musical performances that you could attend with friends.
Step 6. Go to the mall with friends
If you need to refresh your wardrobe or just feel like shopping, invite a friend or two to join you. If you don't want to spend the money, just window shop. Take a tour, shop windows, talk and have fun!
Step 7. Make a movie together
Find a good story, write the script, get the props and shoot your own movie. You can try to do it in a single take or be a pro and edit all the scenes together. The funniest part will be watching it!
Step 8. Plan a day at your personal spa
Invite friends over to your house and exchange manicures and facials or try out new hairstyles and makeup. Imitate a spa by offering your guests hot tea, fresh fruit, and water with cucumber and lemon slices. Play quiet, new age music in the background and light some scented candles to create a relaxing atmosphere.
