The Boston Tea Party was an organized political protest that took place in Boston during the American Revolution.

The following are some facts about the Boston Tea Party:

The Boston Tea Party was an act of protest against the Tea Act of 1773, which had been recently passed by the British Government.

During the Boston Tea Party, several hundred participants, including Paul Revere, dressed in disguise, rowed in small boats out to three cargo ships anchored in Boston Harbor, climbed aboard and dumped 90,000 pounds of tea into Boston Harbor.

The Boston Tea Party took place on the night of December 16, 1773.

Due to a series of costly wars, the British government was deeply in debt by the late 1700s and hoped to make some much needed money off the sale of British tea in the colonies.

Colonists were drinking 1.2 million pounds of tea a year and it became clear that adding a small tax to this tea could generate a lot of extra money for the government.

The British government passed and then repealed a few tea taxes before it finally passed the Townshend Act of 1767. The Townshend Act placed a tax on all tea sold in the colonies, among other goods.

The colonists resented the governments attempts to make money off them and complained that it was unfair. To appease the colonists, the government repealed the tax on most goods sold in the colony except for the tea tax.

Then in May of 1773, the British government passed The Tea Act, which allowed for tea to be shipped by British companies duty-free to the North American colonies, thus allowing the companies to sell it for a cheaper price. The tax on tea for colonists still remained though.

One reason behind the tea act was to help save the floundering East India Company, whose tea sales dwindled after the colonists began boycotting British tea.

Another reason behind the tea act was that, since the tea tax was still in place, selling the colonists discounted British tea could be a subtle way to persuade them to comply with the unpopular tax.

The colonists, though, opposed the tax on a matter of principle, not financial cost, so they refused to comply.

Still angry about the unfair tea tax, the colonists refused to let the Dartmouth, a merchant ship filled with tea, dock in Boston harbor at Griffins Wharf in November of 1773.

The colonists sent a message to the Custom house to send the ship away without any payment for the tea. The Collector of Customs refused.

Colonists held a meeting at Faneuil Hall on November 29, 1773 but it was moved to the Old South Meeting House to accommodate the large crowd.

At the meeting, the colonists all agreed that the tea should be sent back and the tax should not be paid. They assigned 25 men to guard the docks and prevent the ships from docking while they adjourned the meeting for the next day.

The following day, the colonists met again in the Old South Meeting House and listened to a message delivered via John Copley from the tea company.

The company suggested storing the tea in a warehouse until further instruction from Parliament. This idea was immediately rejected because it would mean paying the tax on the tea once it landed.

The local sheriff, Stephen Greenleaf, then delivered a proclamation from Governor Hutchinson ordering them to stop blocking the ships from landing. The colonists refused to comply with Hutchinsons demands.

In the first week of December, two more tea ships arrived; the Eleanor and the Beaver. The meetings continued while colonists tried to find a way to prevent the ships from docking.

The last meeting was held on December 16 and included over 5,000 people. The colonists sent a message to the governor asking him to allow the ships to return to England without payment.

As the owner of one of the ships, Francis Rotch, left the Old South Meetinghouse to give the governor the message, the colonists waited. When Rotch returned hours later with the governors reply, a definite no, they realized they had run out of options.

Little did they know, the Sons of Liberty, a radical political group based in Boston, had anticipated this response and had a secret plan laid out.

Shortly after the governors reply was announced, members of the Sons of Liberty, sitting in the audience, stood up and shouted Hurrah for Griffins Wharf! and Boston Harbor a Teapot Tonight! as they began disguising themselves as Native Americans, and rushed out of the meetinghouse towards the harbor.

Other people joined the Sons of Liberty along the way and together the mob rowed out to the ships and dumped 90,000 pounds of tea, about 1 million dollars worth in todays money, into Boston Harbor.

The Boston Tea Party was a brave move that proved the colonists were not to be pushed around. The British government was furious over the protest, with Governor Thomas Hutchinson calling it the boldest stroke that had been struck against British rule in America.

Parliament called it vandalism and Englands attorney generally officially charged a number of patriot leaders, including Samuel Adams and John Hancock, with the crime of high treason and high misdemeanor, even though there is no proof any of them participated in the protest.

John Adams also had not participated but was delighted when he saw the tea in Boston harbor the next morning, according to the book American Tempest: How the Boston Tea Party Sparked a Revolution:

John Adams, who had been in court in Plymouth for a week and rode back into Boston the morning after the Tea Party, said he did not know any Tea Party participants. As he rode into town, he saw splintered tea chests and huge clots of tea leaves covering the water as far as his eyes could see. They washed ashore along a fifty-mile stretch of coastline as well as on the offshore islands. This, he entered in his diary when he reached his home, is the most magnificent movement of all.There is a dignity, a majesty, a sublimity in this last effort of the Patriots I greatly admire. The people should never rise without doing something to be remembered something notable. And striking. This destruction of the tea is so bold, so daring, so firm, intrepid and inflexible, and it must have so important consequences, and so lasting, that I cannot but consider it as an epocha [sic] in history.

John Hancock wrote a letter to his London agent a few days later gleefully reporting that New York and Philadelphia were also refusing to let cargo ships carrying tea land there and declared that, No circumstance could possibly have taken place more effectively to unite the colonies than this maneuver of the tea.

Yet, not everyone was impressed by the Boston Tea Party, according to the book American Tempest: How the Boston Tea Party Sparked a Revolution:

Not many American leaders in the South rallied to the defense of the Boston Tea Party Patriots. Far from uniting colonists, the Tea Party had alienated many property owners, who held private property to be sacrosanct and did not tolerate its destruction or violation. George Washington concluded that Bostonians were mad, and like other Virginians and most Britons, he condemned the Boston Tea Party as vandalism and wanton destruction of private property an unholy disregard for property rights. After the repeal of the Townshend Acts, Virginians saw no reason to persist in boycotting their British countrymen, and they resumed drinking tea

There were, eventually, legal repercussions for the Boston Tea Party. It took a few months but Parliament soon cracked down on Boston, according to the book American Insurgents, American Patriots: The Revolution of the People:

Several months passed before the colonists learned the extent of their punishment. In a series of statutes known as the Coercive Acts, Parliament like so many other uncertain imperial powers over the centuries decided that provocation of this sort justified an overwhelming show of toughness. The punitive legislation closed the port of Boston to all commerce except for coastal trade in basic supplies like firewood, restructured the Massachusetts government in ways that curtailed free speech in town meetings, and filled the colonys council with Crown appointees determined to restore law and order to the troubled commonwealth. To enforce the new system, the Crown dispatched to Boston an army of occupation under the command of General Thomas Gage.

These Coercive Acts which consisted of several acts, including the Quebec Act, the Quartering Act and two additional Intolerable Acts, made life very difficult for Bostonians and Massachusetts residents.

Morale began to run low, food was scarce and some colonists began to wonder if paying for the destroyed tea might appease the British government.

Fortunately, the other colonies, including Nova Scotia, Georgia and even Virginia, began to send food and supplies to Boston to ease their suffering.

In February of 1775, the British Government passed the Conciliatory Resolution which stated that any colony that wanted to contribute its share of the common defense to parliament would be exempted from further taxes except for regulation of trade.

An attempt at reconciliation was made in 1778 when the British government repealed the tea tax with passage of the Taxation of Colonies Act 1778 but by then it was too late, the colonies were already in the middle of their Revolutionary War with Britain.

We have been much agitated in consequence of the arrival of tea ships by the East India Company, and after every effort was made to induce the consignees to return it from whence it came and all proving ineffectual, in a very few hours the whole of the tea on boardwas thrown into the salt water. The particulars I must refer you to Captain Scott for indeed I am not acquainted with them myself, so as to give detail. No one circumstance could possibly have taken place more effectively to unite the colonies than this maneuver of the tea. John Hancock, letter to his London agent, December 21, 1773

This is the most magnificent movement of all.There is a dignity, a majesty, a sublimity in this last effort of the Patriots I greatly admire. The people should never rise without doing something to be remembered something notable. And striking. This destruction of the tea is so bold, so daring, so firm, intrepid and inflexible, and it must have so important consequences, and so lasting, that I cannot but consider it as an epocha [sic] in history. John Adams, diary, December 1773

We then were ordered by our commander to open the hatches and take out all the chests of tea and throw them overboard, and we immediately proceeded to execute his orders, first cutting and splitting the chests with our tomahawks, so as thoroughly to expose them to the effects of the water. In about three hours from the time we went on board, we had thus broken and thrown overboard every tea chest to be found in the ship, while those in the other ships were disposing of the tea in the same way, at the same time. We were surrounded by British armed ships, but no attempt was made to resist us. George Hewes, Interview with James Hawkes, 1834

Tea Party | Definition of Tea Party by Merriam-Webster

The Tea Party are those who possess a strong belief in the Judeo-Christian values embedded in our great founding documents. We believethe responsibility of our beloved nation isetchedupon the hearts of true Patriots from every race, religion, national origin, and walk of lifesharing a common belief in the values which made and keep our beloved nation great. This belief led to the creation of the modern-day Tea Party.

Our millions of members consist of Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, and Independents who identify with the premises set forth by the U.S. Constitution and we are striking a chord and ringing true with the American Spirit.

We stand by the Constitution as inherently conservative. We serve as a beacon to the masses who have lost their way, a light illuminating the path to the original intentions of our Founding Fathers. We must have a choir of voices declaringAmerica must stand on the valueswhich made us great, only then will the politically blind see and deaf hear!

By joining the Tea Party, you are taking a stand for our nation. You will be upholding the grand principles set forth in the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights.

Reminiscent of Tienanmen Square where a few stood to defy tyranny and demand liberty and democracy, a few patriots stood in protest representing the American people. Weare more than lowly protesters; weare the type of Americans the Founding Fathers envisioned over 240 years ago as true Patriots of courage and valor.

TeaParty.org and others fearless Patriots began to join in our solitary stance; The Tea was brewing! Young and old, wealthy and poor, patriots of all colors and backgrounds began to rally with a new energy, energy reminiscent of pictures in old American History books. Word of mouth began to spread. Citizens began calling loved ones, proclaiming, We The People Rule! many blogged on their laptops, or messaged family and friends. The energy began to sweep across the nation.

The media began to take notice. America was deeply moved, right down to her soul. A new voice began to speak, and a new hope was spawned. Gathering crowds grew from hundreds to thousands, and then swelled to the millions.

As citizens became increasingly frustrated by politics as usual, patriots across America began seeking a new voice, one echoing from the pages of history. What would we name this voice? It soon became obvious, for our very own heritage held the key to unleashing the American Spirit. The Tea Party was the perfect choice. The Tea Party concept was far superior because it removed all the obstacles of party lines along with the baggage of confused issues, and focused only on a few key points.

From this humble beginning a movement was born. The Tea Party Movement, born from obscurity, without funding, without planning, is a spontaneous force shaking the very glass foundation of the oligarchy which rules in our name but without our blessing.

We took our stand, thousands joined, and then millions assembled across our beloved nation. Today, tens of millions of Patriot voices resonate in unisonWe The People Rule!In spite of ongoing hateful ridicule we stood our post, day by day, month by month and now year in and year out. We will not stop.

Needless to say, this Tea Party Movement has grown far beyond belief, from a handful of brave Patriots to tens of millions. Many have been declared as the founder of the modern-day Tea Party; to that we can say: The true founders of the Tea Party were the brave Patriots who dared challenge the status quo in 1773; we are merely their beneficiaries.

Many of Americas dilemmas lay squarely on the shoulders of We The People but we must not define ourselves by the calamities in our lives, but by our resolve to pick up the pieces and keep marching. The power of a few can change a nation, save a people and illuminate a generation.

Commonsense, Conservative, Constitutional Self-Governance Is Our Mode Of Operation. Yes, we are aJudeo/Christian nation. However, you do not have to be Jewish or Christian to enjoy freedom. The Tea Party welcomes all red-blooded U.S. Citizens and those who legally reside in our beloved nation.

TeaParty.org is the only Tea Party organization praised by Dr. Michael Savage in his book, Trickle Up Poverty, pages 18 through 24. The book is highly recommended!

We may be old fashioned, but we believe it is not foolish to pledge our lives, liberty and sacred honor to the greatest nation that ever was or ever will be. The nation of the people, by the people and for the people, to that we shall strive to carry forward the mantle of the Tea Party, keeping alive the voice of freedom.

May God Bless America

About Tea Party | Tea Party

When thinking about tea parties, do you find yourself overwhelmed with thoughts of the British gentry, scenes from Alice in Wonderland, Victorian decor, blue-haired ladies and pinky fingers stuck up in the air? If so, you're both right and wrong. You're right because as the tradition of "Afternoon" Tea has developed over time, it has become an elegant affair. You're wrong because "High" Tea was often enjoyed by the British working class as their evening supper, with heartier fare than the tea sandwiches and scones that are now associated with tea parties.

As the custom has evolved, tea time is usually scheduled from mid to late afternoon. It's a between meal snack that is a lot more elegant than a bag of chips from the vending machine. It needn't be extremely fussy, although the meal often includes savory, bite-size sandwiches, scones or biscuits, and sweets (along with a good pot of tea, of course!) Both men and women enjoy afternoon tea in England, and it's often used as a function for entertaining business clients.

An Afternoon Tea Party is suitable for many celebrations. When you'd like to host a party that isn't as involved as a dinner party, a tea party can be the answer. It's an ideal format for a bridal or baby shower, a retirement party, a birthday celebration, or time to catch up with good friends. The food is prepared before your guests arrive, and is either presented buffet style or by passing plates of goodies at the table. The only thing you need to serve is the tea itself, leaving you plenty of time to relax and enjoy your guests. Your guest list can include dozens of people or only one good friend with whom you'd like to share an intimate conversation. It can be a very formal affair as you'll find at some of the more elegant hotels, or it can be as casual as a pot of tea and some cookies.

Whatever your reason for hosting your next tea party, enjoy a cup for me!

In many parts of the world, tea time is an honored tradition of refinement and elegance. When you're planning a tea partywhether for a shower, graduation, birthday, or just for funadorn your table with your best china, silver, and linens. These add polish and grace to the occasion, and in our "paper cup" world they remind us fondly of earlier times.

The rest is here:
How to Host an Afternoon Tea Party - The Spruce

Tea parties are traditional get-togethers for conversation and enjoyment. Modern tea parties make great birthdays for little girls who love to dress up. And many adults enjoy a Victorian themed party with big hats, lace dresses, and pinstripe suits. Make your tea party more fun with one of our tea party games.

We have traditional games and some new options for adults and kids. Whether your party is an afternoon hour of relaxation, a high tea, or a birthday party, we have the perfect game for you.

Hosting an adult tea party is a refreshing way to entertain friends. The following games will help your guests enjoy the party. Just make sure you leave some time for relaxing conversation over your cups of tea.

Use saucers or demitasse cups for this fun tea party game. Provide each guest with a pencil and piece of paper. Place a loose-leaf tea on each saucer or pour a different tea into each cup. Let the guests guess what they are by how they smell and look. Provide a list of tea names and pass the saucers or cups so guests can match the each cup to the correct name. The guest who properly identifies the most teas is the winner. To make the game a bit more difficult, choose teas of all one color, such as white, black, or green.

Another game requiring paper and pencil, guests attempt to write down as many words as they can that come from the phrase TEA PARTY. Allow five minutes for them to complete their lists. Offer several prizes, such as for:

You will need a kitchen timer for this tea party game. Provide your guests with paper and a pencil or pen. Set the timer for two minutes and have your guests write down as many words as possible that start with the letter T or have the letters t, e, and a in them. No proper nouns are allowed. Give one point for each word that begins with the letter tea, and two points for words with tea in them. Total the points when the timer goes off and the player with the most points wins.

This tea-time game takes a bit of preparation, but provides at least thirty minutes of play time. Before your tea party, write tea-themed words on note cards or slips of paper. Divide your guests into teams of three or four. Break open some cheap teabags and put the contents into plastic, lidded containers, one for each team. One team member draws a card and makes a picture with tea leaves on the table top. Their team tries to guess the word. The drawer cannot talk. Teams take turns, with the team getting the most correct answers with the shortest times winning the game.

Hint: Try out the words you choose before the party. Have some that are easy and some that are more difficult.

You will need between ten and fifteen brown paper lunch bags for this game. Place a different item in each bag. Choose objects that have different weights and density, such as a kitchen sponge, orange, fork, or toy car. Have your guests sit in a circle and pass the bags once with the guests guessing what is inside each bag. Have them write down what they think is in the bag on a piece of paper. Pass the bags again and have your guests reach inside without looking and make another guess. It will be fun to see how close to correct they were the first time. If you wish, you can give a small prize to those who guessed correctly the first time the bags were passed.

Another game that keeps your guests entertained for a while is this special tea party bingo game. Before the party, use cardstock to cut out a large teapot shape for each guest. Mark off a grid of twenty five square, five vertical and five horizontal. Write tea party related words in each square, such as teapot, tea bag, sugar, cream, teaspoon, etc. Provide small candies to cover the squares as play progresses.

Provide each guest a piece of paper, a colored maker, and a bandana or stripe of cloth to use as a blindfold. The goal is to draw a teapot without looking. Give your guests three minutes to draw and then see which picture most closely resembles a teapot. Provide a prize for the best drawing.

Little girls love dressing up and playing grown up. A tea party is a perfect afternoon get-together or birthday celebration. It may be difficult to get boys to participate, but a tea party is an excellent way to learn some manners. Try a themed tea party, such as A Day at the Races. Cater to the kids tastes with mini pizzas and little sausages wrapped in biscuits instead of the usual dainty pastries and finger sandwiches. Add to the fun with our collection of tea party games for kids.

A game that works well at the beginning of a kids tea party, place a tea bag and a small wrapped candy in small net bags. Hide the tea bags throughout a designated area of the house and have the guests find them. Whoever finds the most wins a small prize. Then divide the bags between the guests for their first cup of tea.

Kids love musical chairs. Seat the kids in a circle in chairs and start some music. Choose some that fits with the theme of your party. Every time you stop the music, the kids must take a seat. Take a chair away after each round and whoever cannot sit down is out. Another way to play is to have enough chairs, but the last person who sits down is out.

As the kids are sitting at the table drinking tea is a good time to play this game. One person tries to get everyone else to laugh or smile. They can tell a joke, make silly faces, or laugh themselves, but they cannot touch anyone else. Each player has two minutes to get the others to laugh.

Relay races are a kids favorite. Our suggestions of ways to play are perfect for a tea party. Begin by dividing your group of kids into two or more teams of three to five players. Then choose one of the following relay races:

Use two teapots for this fun and challenging relay race. Depending on the age and composition of the group, you may wish to use plastic teapots or small plastic sand buckets. Each team attempts to fill the teapot or bucket with water in a tea cup. Consider using small plastic cups if your group his high energy. The first team to fill the teapot or bucket wins the relay race.

For this race, your teams must transport a sugar cube on a spoon. If the sugar cube falls, the player who dropped it must return to the starting line and begin again. The first team to have all of its members complete the race wins.

This relay race works best for older children. Set up a table or standing tray for each team at one end of a designated playing area with a teapot, cups, and saucers. At the other end, have a table for each team with chairs for each team member. Use a whistle to start the relay race. Team members sit at the table and must run to the table with the teapot, cups, and saucers, fill a cup, place it on the saucer, and run to back to the first table and sit down. The players take turns and the first team to have all their players seated with a cup of tea wins this relay race.

Each team is given an empty tray. Team members must run from the starting line to a pile of items related to a tea party. Each team member picks up one item, places it on the tray, and runs back to the starting line. Eventually, all of the items are on the tray, and the race becomes very challenging! The first team to fill their tray and finish the race wins.

MoreRelay Race Games

A simple, classic game that provides fun, kids will enjoy the challenge of this tea time memory game. Use a large serving tray. Provide each player a piece of paper and pencil or pen. Place tea party related items on the tray and cover it with a cloth or tea towel. Uncover the tray and let each guest look at the items for about ten seconds. Cover the tray and let the kids write down as many items as they can recall. The one who remembers the most items wins this game. Try using these items on the tray:

MoreMemory Games

Most kids have played Freeze Dance before. Additionally, many kids know the song, Im a Little Teapot, which is perfect for a Freeze Dance game at a tea party. As the music plays, the kids dance to the song, using the motions, and when it stops, they freeze in place. You may need to run through the song for those who do not know the motions. If someone keeps moving or leaves their position, they are out of the game. Keep playing until only one player remains the winner.

Simply draw a saucer on a piece of poster board and cut out and color tea cup shapes, one for each guest. Each guest takes turns attempting to pin the cup to the saucer while blindfolded. The one who gets their cup the closest to the center of the saucer wins.

A game that tests the concentration and memory of players, you need a colorful teapot to hide in plain sight. After everyone looks at the teapot, have them leave the room. Find a place to put the teapot where it is not obvious, but can be seen. Instruct the players to not say anything when they spot the teapot, but sit down at the table for a cup of tea. The last player to see the teapot hides another item, such as a sugar bowl, tea cup, or saucer.

Remember to have colorful table clothes, napkins, and add some fresh or artificial flowers (if guests have allergies). Decorations do not need to bed expensive. Check out what is available at your local discount or dollar store, also an excellent place to find favors and prizes.

You do not need to serve a meal at your tea party, but some small snacks are appropriate. For your adult party, try petit fours, small bite-sized confectioneries, and cucumber sandwiches, both traditional tea party treats. Cut the crusts off the bread for the sandwiches and use cookie cutters to create designs such as diamonds, circles, and triangles. Consider iced tea or lemonade for those who prefer cold drinks. Kids will like salty snacks and candies. Dont forget those soft mint candies in bowls and mixed nuts, also traditional tea party fare.

Keep your favors and prizes simple. Consider bookmarks, a tea cup, bundled tea bags, sample size cosmetics and scents, small notebooks, keychains (for adults), and coin purses. Although you do not need to give prizes for games, doing so adds to the fun. Consider a bag to give each guest as they leave with a sweet treat, tea bag, and one or two other small items.

Our tea party games and ideas are both traditional and original. You may be planning a traditional high tea, a Victoria reenactment for couples, or a birthday party for your twelve-year-old daughter. Whether your group is composed of your lady friends, couples, or kids, we have a game for your special tea party occasion. Pour the tea, play a game, and have fun!
