Things to do in animal jam

### Things to do on Animal Jam

Lets face it--we all get bored on Animal Jam one time or another. Here are some ideas or "boredom busters" to do on Animal Jam for fun!!

Anything with a • means it's seasonal/or can be done only a couple of times a year

Restaurant: Yeah yeah. We all know this one! The restaurant! Get your employees and start the business. It's really fun doing this, you can get into arguments with costumers, practice your cooking skills, serve people and manage a restaurant! You'll need chefs, managers, owner(s), waiters/waitress, and of course customers! Themed restaurants are seriously cool! Try these themes:

* Birthday
* Night of the Phantoms/Phantoms
* Jamaaliday
* Western
* Farm
* Kimbara Outback
* Forest/flowers
* Tea
* Coral Canyons
* Animal
* Traditional!

House: Everybody knows house! Wether your a child, pet, parent or babysitter, everyone loves roll playing this game. This is one of the oldest AJ "games" in the book. Here are some ideas & info about the roll play of HOUSE:

Looking to be a **PARENT**? Check this out:

If your looking to "raise" a child, first set up a den like a traditional house. Have a crib or bed for you and your baby*\*prefurrably not a crib for YOU\**TVs and toys are good for your baby. Plushies are a good choice too! Keep all dangerous rooms baby proof *\*NOTE: Some babies tend to want attention so they say something like "climbs over baby gate" or "chews through baby proof lock" or something along those lines\**Shogi Screens work well for gates along with fences and candy cane fences. Adopt a pet and/or child. Welcome them in the house and show them your room and show you will be a good parent. Add the kid to your buddy list (duh). Take care of the child through it's life! Send it to the Medical Center when sick, get him/her to school, feed them \*when their older, take them to restruants\*, take them places, change up their room if wanted *\*don't let them be too spoiled on this\**and teach them to be a good jammer. Let them grow up and have fun in their life, you can't keep them as a BABY forever. You'll have lots of fun!

Looking to be a **CHILD**? Check this out:

If your looking to be a child and get adopted, you must first know some "rules". DON'T be spoiled or act like a brat. Your parent does a lot for you and doesn't deserve more trouble. Would you treat your REAL LIFE parent like that? Of course not! Don't treat your fake parent like that either! LISTEN to your parent, do what they tell you to \*excludes have you give them things, or unrealistic tasks\*. BE YOURSELF, a parent doesn't want someone who isn't who they are! Ok now to the real deal: Go to the pillow room or a den that someone advertizes as a place to adopt kids. Don't type stuff to get a mom/dad like "is so helpless" or "going to die unless loved" because that puts people in a mood where they don't want to adopt you. Say stuff like "is looking for a mommy" or "is a nice kid that loves doggies" or something like that. Someone WILL adopt you and take you to your house. Follow their rules and love them, they love you! Do what normal babies or children do. Eat, sleep, play with your toys and occasionally you can get sick. When you do your parent will get you some help. Don't be sick for too long though. Once the doctor says  your better, YOU ARE. If the doctor says to give you medicine, have the medicine help you. You can ask to go to the park or forest or beach too! If  the topic about school hasn't been brought up yet, bring it up! Ask when your going to school, pretty soon you will go to it! If your mom/dad is mean to you, run away!!! I hope you have fun being a child!

Looking to be a PET? Here's some info
If you are looking to be a pet, here is the guide for you! First off dress up like a normal pet would. If you are a dog put on a fur coat color and spots (optional). Don't buy a collar yet your owner will do that for you. The suggested animal for a dog would be a will or a bunny if you want to be a baby dog. If you want to be a cat an excellent choice would be a tiger or a baby bunny.  Dress like a cat would look like. Any color coat works along with spots or stripes. You could also be any other animal too! Think outside of the box. Go into the pillow room and say something like "is obediant dog" or "loving cat up for adpotion" or even "Is good guard dog" (people love guard dogs!). Once you get home with your new owner, do what you are suppost to do. Eat, sleep, beg for walks (if dog) and go to the bathroom even! If you are a guard dog or watchdog, DO YOUR JOB! Guard what they want you to guard. Have fun being the pet of a family :)

•Trick-or-Treating: This is so unbelievably fun during Halloween. Gather a lot of buddies, and lots of little kids or big kids. Have your buddies go into the stores in Jamaa township with lots of plushies in their inventory and toys in their invontory. Have the kids go into each building and yell "Trick or Treat!!!". Once they do, your buddy will send them a toy or plushie! This is so much fun!!

•The Phantom: Have a scary good time as you dress up like a phantom and huant people in Jamaa Township--remember nothing too scary, you don't want people getting hurt D:

The Park: Create your den to look like a park--try adding picnic blankets/tables, trees, bees nests, playground toys and flowers/plants. Invite people to your den and have fun!!

Wedding: Weddings are a beautiful time for jammers to rejoice in love. Decorate your den to look like a wedding with flowers and flowy items and hearts. Also don't forget your food! A 2nd birthday cake is the best for the wedding cake. A flower crown is something for the bride to wear, and the groom should wear a suit from Epic Wonders. Where the vows are said, you can have a Passion Flower as the setup and have a priest there. You can have an animal bring the rigs and a flower girl sprinkle flowers. The bride and groom could have wedding rings from Epic Wonders. Have the couple be lovey-dovey the entire time, and have a dance party at the end x3

Zoo: One of the most origional things out there, but hold on-give it a chance. You can have a Jammer Zoo, Plushie zoo or PHANTOM Zoo! Use fences as dividors and have every animal's toy by the pen. Invide Jammers to be animals or come and visit. If your an animal, here is the fun part--you can make friends with other animals, get into "fights", spit on visitors or igonore them, or be a baby that everbody goes "awwwwwwww" over. What is really fun is to "escape" and run around XD

Medievial Times: Gather Kings, Queens, Princesses, Princes, Jokers, and Knights to your castle den. Lay feast tables and two/four thrones for the King and Queen and/or Princess and Prince. Lots of drama can spur in the castle, along with wonderful love roleplays, children fun and awesome memories. You will have a BLAST!

Smoothie Shop: Have smoothie machines around a counter and stools. You can be the owner who serves the drinks. You can decorate your house like the colors in the smoothies--bright, bold colors.

Candy Shop: fill your room with dessert tables, gumball machines, bright rainbow colors (It can be in a Gingerbread house!!!), Claw machines and small toys. You will be the talk of the town with the greatest candy store ever!!!

Football: Get a team with baseball gear (it don't matter the uniform) prefurribly in two colors. Have your team split up so an even amount is on each side. Now get the furniture football things and play football! You can even move the football in your den to make it look like it's moving!

Lion Pride: Gather lots of lions and tigers (Have the tigers dress all tan or orange, like the females), and even bunnies as cubs (again, all tan or orange). You can have a territory in Appondale and a base camp like in regular clans. You can have fights, cool adventures and fun times!

Bounce House: Put couches ALL over your den and invite peeps over! Press hop and have a silly time!

TV Show Club: Have you met a couple people that like the same show you do? Create a club dedicated to that show! You can meet once every week and talk about how AWESOME it is! Every time a new episode airs, get together and talk about it! THIS IS SO MUCH FUN if you have ACTIVE players :D

Birthday Party: Decorate a restruant den just for a party! Have a row or two of restruant booths with ice cream sundaes on them with balloons EVERYWHERE and food all around with presents and gumball machienens and and and OMG I LOVE THIS!!!

Flash Mob: Oh.My.Gosh. This is SO MUCH FUNNN! Gather a ton of people, and practice dancing and saying lyrics to a song of your choice. Once you got your routine down, go to a crowded area, and have one person start dancing, then all of a sudden, have more people dancing..then more...and more until the land is filled with song and dance! People who aren't in on this will be surprised, and mybe sing along!! If you dont know what a flash mob is, click here for a vid on Youtube.

•Valentines Day at School: If you have a school during Valentines day, have the kids send eachother and the teacher valentines with little gifts/or not inside!!

Haunted house: Get the spooky den and put spooky furniture in places. Have some buddies dress up in scary costumes and hide behind furniture. Invite people over and have the buddies jump out and scare them when they walk by!!

Arcade: Get ALL the games in Jamaa and put them in your den, complete with the claw and Phantom Invasion machine. Get people to come and have a blast in your den! You can even have a "prize booth" and give out little plushies or toys if someone brings "tickets" to you!!

Meuseum: Buy Ancient-looking items around Jamaa and the statues of the Alphas. Place them around your den. Make sure to have a front desk so you can sit and make sure people "pay" to get in! This is super cool to see in action with all the old items and little kids coming!

More ideas coming soon!
