If there is one thing that all kids like, it would have to be Minecraft. I think every kid I have ever run into plays it and enjoys it. Not only that, but listening to kids talking to each other about it, is like trying to decipher a secret language!

That is really the only rule, but now I can give you some pointers on throwing an EPIC Minecraft Party.
How to be prepared for throwing a Minecraft party:
