Your child has heard it all; you can’t keep them entertained. It’s hard not to go the same route every year. Don’t settle for standing in a long line and paying a lot of money to get the same cake and treats they had last year. Make your child happy this year by planning a fun birthday party.
Water Balloon Painting
Water balloon painting is an awesome idea for a child’s birthday party. It is the perfect way to get kids out of the house and into the outdoors. Not only that, but it’s also a good bonding activity for parents and children.
You can organize this birthday party with just some water balloons, powder paint, and a few other materials. The preparation is pretty simple but make sure you give yourself enough time to properly prep for the party.
If you are preparing for a bigger group of kids at your child’s birthday party, then you should probably get a bigger bucket of paints so everyone can have their share of fun. If you want to make it extra fun, you can add some powdered food coloring which will make sure that even if the paint gets into your mouth, it won’t be harmful at all.
This is a great birthday party theme because it encourages creativity and allows kids to express themselves through art.
Party at a Park
A party at a park is a great option for an outdoor birthday party, especially if you don’t want to host the party at your house. Here’s how to plan a child’s birthday party at a park:
First, choose the right park. Some parks have shelters, which can be nice to have in case of bad weather. Also, consider whether the park has bathrooms, which may or may not be important to you. If you are having a large party, you might even want to reserve one of the shelters through your local city’s parks department. Finally, make sure that there is plenty of parking for guests.
Hire a Clown
Well, children just love clowns. And the best part about hiring the clown is that you can let the clown do all of the work. That means that you can sit back and enjoy the party without having to work too hard to make sure that everything goes smoothly. Of course, a clown must be professional and reliable if you’re going to trust him or her with your child’s birthday party. Make sure that you hire only the most reputable clowns around.
To hire a clown, you can contact local entertainment agencies or search online for sites that offer clown-for-hire services. You can also find local magicians and other entertainers who can help make the celebration special for your child.
Movie Party
A movie party may be the easiest of all parties to organize (the only thing you really have to worry about is ordering pizza and getting the movie). It’s also a lot of fun and the kids will love it. You can rent a projector, set up an inflatable screen, or just use your living room wall as the backdrop to your movie. Kids will love it, especially if you let them stay up past their bedtime. The downside? This one takes some planning in advance, and an older kid might want to do something more exciting than a “baby-ish” movie night.
How Do You Organize a Movie Party?
First, you need to choose the right movie. You want it to be a movie that all the kids will enjoy or at least something that most of them will enjoy. You don’t want someone complaining about having to watch a “baby” movie, so make sure to ask them what kind of movies they like before making your selection.
Also, consider the age of the children in attendance before choosing the flick. Once you have selected a movie, rent it or buy it if you don’t have it already, and make sure you have enough seats and blankets for everyone who is coming over.
Invite your kid’s friends over at least 30 minutes before the start time to give them time to chat and settle down before the show starts.
Scavenger Hunt Party
A scavenger hunt is a great idea for active children. It can be organized both at home and outdoors. In the latter case, you will need to prepare some prizes, stickers and other things in the form of small gifts, which the winner will receive.
To make it more interesting, you can hide not only some small gifts but also sweets. This way you will give pleasure to all children who take part in the game.
The main advantage of this game is that it can be easily adapted to any age of children. That’s why your child and his/her friends will have a lot of fun.
How Do You Organize a Scavenger Hunt Party?
Choose a place to hide things: garden or apartment (or both). Hide all the necessary items in advance and send invitations to your friends with instructions on where they are hidden. You can distribute them in pairs or alone – everything depends on their age.
Items You Can Hide
Kids love hunting for treasure, so why not organize a gold rush activity? First, you’ll need to bury “gold” around the yard or park where the party will take place. Then give kids gold rush nugget bucket and shovels and set them free on the hunt. You can use chocolate coins like gold, but if you plan on eating the gold later, it might be best to use plastic coins instead.
Ultimately, have fun with the birthday party planning. Whether you decide to go with one of these ideas or create your own, we hope that you and your child have a wonderful time enjoying his or her special day.
