Planning your child's birthday party is one of the most fun parts of being a parent. Its a time to be creative and give your child a unique experience they will remember for years. Here are five unique ideas to make sure that your child's next birthday is something really special.
Pirates Of The Caribbean
A birthday party is a perfect time to indulge in a little high sea piracy. Pirate hats and matching eye patches can be picked up cheaply at your local dollar store or Walmart. Temporary pirate tattoos, skull rings and skull beaded necklaces make for great prizes for pass the parcel and pin the peg on the pirate. Of course every pirate themed birthday party also needs to have a treasure hunt for Spanish gold, and don't forget X always marks the spot! Add a Pirates of the Caribbean bouncy castle for even more piratical fun.
Marvel Superheroes
With an endless stream of Marvel movies at the cinema, children will love dressing up as their favorite comic book heroes. A marvel superhero party is the perfect time for your child to become their favorite webcrawler, mutant freak or god of thunder. A simple face mask can go a long way to dressing a child up as a superhero. Add rock candy for kryptonite, Spiderman cupcakes, and pop art decorations. Comic books are of course the perfect prize for lucky children.
Rock Star Party
Kids are natural performers. They love to sing and dance so why not give them an opportunity for their next birthday. A rock star themed party can be real fun, even if a little noisy. Issue "back stage passes" to each of the lucky, little guests to this rock gig. Rocker hair wigs and fake tattoos will set it up just right for them. Use vinyl records, music notes and guitars to set the right back drop for your party.
Lord Of The Rings
What child doesn't love wizards and faires? So why not turn your backyard into a little piece of middle earth. Send out invitations to each of your child's friends inviting them to dress as their favorite Lord of the Rings character. Have a paper mache "Treebeard" at the entry to the party to invite all of the guests to Middle Earth. All you need now is a few little hobbits - luckily you have plenty of those!
Winnie The Pooh
There's nothing more adorable than Pooh and Tigger, except for your child dressed up in costume as them. Pooh loves honey and so do little kids. Delight them with sweet and delicious honey treats. If you are looking for a fun game to play, then how about "Pin the tail on Eeyore". Remove Eeyore's tail and have your blindfolded kiddies try to put it back in place. Buy Winnie the Pooh coloring books, give the kids some crayon, and hand out prizes to the most artistically inclined.
