Creative Party Theme Ideas for Children
Looking for some unusual ideas for your child s birthday party. Here s a few to get you thinking, once the ideas start to come you might come up with some surprising or interesting ideas yourself:-
Beach or Luau party- no, this doesn t mean that you actually have to take them all to the beach! You can create your own “beach” in your home with Hawaiian skirts, surf dudes, tropical t-shirts, and plenty of sun and beach themed drinks and food.
Craft ideas - kids love to make things and this is one easy way to keep them busy! Suitable for older children, this is a great way of spending time with friends. Forget about party gift bags to take home, they simply take home what they ve made.
Dinosaur - either have children dressing up as dinosaurs or as explorers trying to find them. This could be a great outdoors party with plenty of wild animals and games to keep them busy.
Disney Movie - kids often want to copy the hero of the latest Disney movie. At the time of writing “Cars” is the hottest Disney film to be released, and a party themed around that is likely to be a real hit.
Princess - this is a party that young girls will love. Follow it up with a slumber party for her friends and you ll be her friend for ever! More suitable for younger children, the girls will have a wonderful time choosing their costume and dressing up as a fairy tale princess.
Sports party - ideal for young and energetic children aged 6 and above. Playing football or basketball will keep them occupied having fun whilst you get the cakes and food ready.
TV or film character inspired - whether it s Superman or Batman - ask kids to come dressed as their favourite character
Whatever theme you choose, plan in plenty of time to:-
make or order a birthday cake
create and send invitations
organise games and prizes
get plenty of help for the day!
And don t forget to plan a relaxing day so that you can put your feet up and have a well-earned rest.
