50th birthday 'games'

So, my DH is 50 very soon and I've invited a few family members to come and celebrate with him on his birthday.
Nothing extravagant but about 12 of us ranging in age from 14 - 80 but most of us 30-50.
Just your standard kind of buffet spread etc but I'm trying to think of fun games or activities to kind of lift the atmosphere. Obviously nothing too much because the oldies wouldn't join in (like Pie Face) but nothing dull as dish water either. And nothing too rude because of the 14 yr old - although she does like what's my meme ( don't think the oldies will appreciate that!)
Can anyone help turn this into something fun because I'm struggling!

@Teacakeandalatte yes my family are all up for a game/quiz etc! Karaoke would be their idea of hell!

Thank you for all these ideas - I shall certainly look into them!*

@FiveLittlePigs*, yes my husband would really enjoy playing these games! I think I kind of know him pretty well after being together for nearly 30 years Grin
I suppose it's a good job we're not all the same!
To be honest, I'm not entirely sure why you've taken the time to post something so negative on what is a light, inoffensive thread. Don't forget you can scroll past threads if they don't appeal to you Smile

Tie a ladle around your waist so it’s hanging between your legs, two teams, split so half at each end of the room, each person has to hit an orange with the ladle - no hands allowed - until whole team had gone, really quite funny!

Second articulate. You can get a little box with just the cards so it’s not too formal. It has us crying with laughter
