7 Fun and Easy Activities for Women’s Groups

August 21, 2022 By Kerry 13 Comments

How many of us have said to our lady friends online or in passing, “Let’s get together soon!”? I know I do it all the time, and I really, really mean to. But life happens, and we all get busy. At least that’s what we say, but relationships with friends and family are important. If you’re looking for get-together ideas for ladies, here are some great, simple ideas to get you started.

Is it time for a ladies' get-together? These 7 activities are fun, easy to do, and inexpensive. #friends #women #ladies #gettogethers #activities #party #church

 

Get-Together Ideas for Ladies in Bigger Groups

Potluck Lunch

Invite friends who know each other, or invite ladies from your neighborhood. It’s important for your guests to have something in common; otherwise, gathering a group of random strangers isn’t going to be fun for them. Send an invite, asking everyone to bring a favorite dish to share at your home at a set day and time. The food can be homemade or purchased. Ask for RSVPs and find out what people are bringing to avoid duplicates. As the host, it’s best to provide a main dish, something like appetizer meatballs, finger sandwiches, soup, etc. so you have a staple the other dishes can complement.

Now, let’s boost the idea of a basic potluck.

Potluck Themes

You still provide the main dish and assign a couple of complementary sides. Then you ask the rest of your lady guests to bring something related to a theme. Some ideas: dishes made with Jell-O, veggies (or be specific, like zucchini), chocolate, cheese, etc. Just pick one idea. Then invite everyone to your Jell-O potluck, for instance, and explain how it will be done. Or you could do a potluck where everyone shares their favorite healthy dishes. That way it’s a testers’ table for people to try. This could be really fun and interesting. Depending on your group, you could specify keto, gluten free, paleo–whatever you’d like and would fit your friends’ personalities. In my neighborhood, I think the Jell-O one would be fun to do. Look at all the fun options.

Here are some other get-together ideas for ladies that you could do without serving a meal. Light refreshments would be perfect.

What’s in Your Purse? Game

This is a fun, simple activity that I attended a few years ago. A large group of ladies were invited to a fun evening and told to bring our purses but we wouldn’t be spending any money. Instantly our curiosity was piqued. That night we were divided into small groups and given a slip of paper with items listed and point values assigned to each item. Then we were told to search our purses and see if we could come up with each item. Some were basic, and our group scored lots of points. Other items were tricky or bizarre. Invariably, someone in the group had them. It was funny to watch as ladies rummaged through their bags for these obscure items. We laughed as some pretty crazy items surfaced. After we’d all finished our group searches and tallied our points, the hostess announced the group winner, and I think we each received some small, minimal prize. Then she awarded individuals for certain categories, like strangest item, funniest item, most-practical item. I remember that one of my friends won a prize because she had a crusty, old muffin wrapper. She’s a highly successful, organized businesswoman, so we laughed big time, and she was a really good sport. When asked how long it had been in there, she thought maybe a month or more. Too funny!

Want to play this game? I’ve made it easy for you. DOWNLOAD this 8.5 x 11 printable and keep score. High score wins.

NOTE: I’ve updated this game and have several themes available to use for baby showers and at Christmas.

Get-Togethers with Big or Small Groups

Service Projects

It’s easy to find service projects in the community, and some of them can be done from home. Get together with friends to make it more fun. I wrote this post about ways you can write to people in need. You can also tie fleece blankets for local children’s hospitals, and many police stations accept comfort blankets or stuffed animals to give to children in dire situations.

Binge-Watch Movies

Dying to watch Jane Austen with friends? Here you go; Netflix has everything you need. Other ideas: both Grease movies, any holiday classics, and so much more. Not enough time to watch several movies? Just pick a good one. I once invited girlfriends over to watch Chocolat, and of course we indulged in chocolate yumminess.

Build a Campfire

Roast hot dogs and marshmallows. Make smores. Talk and visit. Bonus if someone can play the guitar and lead a group sing-a-long.

Go on a Group Hike

Whether it’s local or global, anywhere you go there are incredible hikes to enjoy. Since I live in Utah, I have many great options. Do a search on Pinterest and find hiking tips and trails for your state. Do a potluck picnic after. No stress. Everyone just brings items to share.

These are a few of my ideas. How about yours? What fun get-together ideas for ladies have you seen or experienced?

        I think it is so important to plan get togethers. During quarantine, it’s tough. But reaching out and connecting in person should be top priority when the pandemic is over. Until then, we do our best. Good luck with your get togethers.

      Do those playing the purse game leave their items out on the table as they find them for all of us to check out? I was wondering how you see like the strangest or funniest item if we are going by list.

        We just take the ladies at their word. If they say they have the item and check it off the list, it’s good. The strangest or funniest item goes up for a vote. So that one you show. Have fun!

We are on this autism journey. 💙 Some of you k We are on this autism journey. 💙

Some of you know that our family (including extended family members) have had a lifetime of autism experiences. 

Each person is different. That’s why I like this image of autism. It’s every color. The symbolism of the circle represents infinity, the love we have for one another on this journey. 

With our family members, you wouldn’t immediately recognize the autism tendencies. Or maybe you would. 

I have aspects of autism. For instance, I can’t tell when I’m talking too loudly, but it makes for a great “teacher voice.”

Collectively, we deal with many of the harder aspects of the disorder: echolalia, meaning of words, social skills, isolation, sensory needs, and more. 

But we have been very blessed by autism too. We have family members who have excelled academically, technologically, and in running world-renowned businesses. 

Autism, you’ve been a challenge. But you’ve also made us who we are. 💙

Will Kien desires to serve a mission to China in the early 1900s. Family friend Edward encourages Will to join their ministering family, which includes his sister-in-law Katherine. 

Will and Katherine eventually fall in love as they work tirelessly to teach and help the Chinese people in several remote communities. 

It’s a rough life and an incredible journey to read about. 

It’s absolutely a clean read and one that I highly recommend. 

This is one of those books you’ll think about long after you’ve read it. 

Courage, unconditional love, and absolute service are long-lasting lessons you’ll treasure from these pages.

I’m hoping it’s not so peppered with salty language. He has such a fascinating life story and has been such a courageous role model in his battle with Parkinson’s.

Chicken, Alaska. 1927. A young, white teacher with Chicken, Alaska. 1927. A young, white teacher with grit. 

I love a good outdoor adventure with a strong female who takes the lead. Anne Hobbs was only 19 when she took on the tough assignment to teach in a small gold-mining town on the Alaska frontier. 

Based on a true story, this page turner unravels one challenge after another. A ramshackle schoolhouse, illiteracy, extreme poverty, irrational hatred for Native Americans, wolves, bears, harsh winter … It just goes on and on. 

Included is a bittersweet romance that just tugs at your heartstrings. 

Tisha (meaning teacher and pronounced tee-shaw) is how one beloved Native American refers to Anne. Originally published in 1976. This book isn’t politically correct. It tells the story as it really happened. There are harsh references to Native Americans and several non-white races. Sadly, that’s how things were and I applaud the historical accuracy in this book for telling us how it was. Plain and simple. 

By chance, have you read this one?

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Such a fabulous book ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Such a fabulous book! Chiaverini’s books are clean reads, and I love recommending them. 

WIth this one step back in time to WWI when women were just beginning to help war efforts in new ways. 

Male soldiers weren’t able to multitask quickly enough to effectively man the switchboards, vital positions in communicating key tactical maneuvers. 

So select women were trained for the job. First missions were sent to France, some on the frontlines. 

Learn about how these women earned respect and finally gained Army recognition as soldiers.

#bookreview This has so many f-bombs and other fo #bookreview

This has so many f-bombs and other foul language that I gave up on it. 

For me, the storyline was mediocre. The fact that it’s historical fiction but not WWII piqued my interest. I wanted something different. 

But not this kind of different. …This book goes into sordid details about a female scientist in the 1950s who is abused in every way by men as she pursues her education and first career.

She meets another scientist, a famous one, at that job. They try to keep it simply professional but soon fall in love and live together. 

The intimacy scenes aren’t too detailed, which I think is good. 

But I just now stopped because I’m tired of wading through the f-bombs that have no relevance to the story. 

Sadly, before I ever got this book from the library, I asked three times if it is a clean read. Each time I was reassured that it is. 

I’m here to tell you it’s not. That doesn’t make it a bad book, and it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t read it. But I’m going to share an honest review because I couldn’t get one before I picked this up and wasted several hours of reading.

Every person has their own agency, their own abili Every person has their own agency, their own ability to make choices. We simply cannot change that. 

For years, I have been one to try to fix others’ problems. I have a big heart, but it’s the wrong thing to do. 

Instead, I can support. But I cannot fix. 

Events in my life recently have taught me this more than anything. 

So I recently reread this helpful book to help me better understand my role. 

I’m not perfect—not even close. But I’m learning to simply validate others’ concerns and offer less suggestions (unless I’m specifically asked). 

It’s actually a huge relief. 

Have you read this one? Did it help you too?

I just now finished The Last Bookshop in London. I just now finished The Last Bookshop in London. 

There have been some interruptions to my reading time, and today I was finally able to cozy up and escape. 

This book gives me courage. Grace, the main character, survives the London blitz by sharing her love of books with other survivors. 

But it’s more than that. She rebuilds lives as people come together in great need. 

Gathering to listen to Grace read, their souls are saved. Literally. 

I often feel deep connections to others when discussing shared reads. 

I believe couple and family bonds may be strengthened by reading too. 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This book is absolutely clean and worth having in your mind.
