Top 15 Kids Birthday Party Ideas
Tired of the same old activities at every kids birthday party? Do you want to create an event that your child and their friends will remember for years to come? Look no further! Pinot & Picasso has got you covered with some of the most creative and fun party ideas that are sure to be a hit with little ones.
Kids birthday party themes
The first step in planning a birthday party is choosing the perfect theme. Consider your child’s interests and hobbies to find a theme that they will love. Whether it’s unicorns, superheroes, or animals, there’s a party theme for everyone. Make sure to incorporate the birthday child’s favourite colours and decorations to personalise the party for them.
Have an art party
For a creative and fun party, consider hosting an art party with Pinot & Picasso. We have in-studio and at-home options that allow your child and their friends to create their own masterpieces to keep! Pinot & Picasso’s kids birthday party packages come with a dedicated artist to ensure everything runs smoothly. You can also check out Pinot & Picasso’s At Home Art Kits for a fun activity the whole family can enjoy.
Disney party
Bring the magic of Disney to your child’s party with a Disney-themed celebration. From Frozen to Toy Story to The Little Mermaid and many more, there are endless options to choose from. Decorate with your child’s favourite characters and play Disney-inspired games. Pinot & Picasso’s painting sessions can also be adapted to fit a Disney theme, so consider adding an artistic activity to the festivities.
Avengers party
For a superhero-loving child, consider an Avengers-themed party. Decorate with Avengers decorations and costumes, and take a group photo to capture the memories. You can even incorporate the theme into the party invitations for the big day!
Detective party
For a kids birthday party that’s both fun and challenging, consider a detective-themed celebration. Set up a mock crime scene and have the children work together to solve the mystery. This theme can be customised to fit any age group, and you can include extra games and puzzles to keep everyone engaged.
Face painting party
Let your child’s birthday be full of colour and creativity with a face painting party! Organise a dedicated face painter for a party activity any child will love. You can even turn it into a DIY activity with face paint kits that you can easily find online or in party stores. Don’t forget to capture the memories with photos of the happy painted faces. It’s the perfect way to let your guests have fun and showcase their creativity.
Inexpensive kids birthday party ideas
Throwing a memorable birthday party for your child doesn’t have to be a stressful or expensive affair. With a little creativity and planning, you can host a celebration that your child and their friends will love, while also staying within your budget.
Go to a local park
Birthday parties don’t have to break the bank. If you’re looking for a perfect place and budget-friendly celebration, consider hosting the party in the local park. Many parks have free or low-cost facilities that you can reserve for a few hours, and your party guests can enjoy playing games and exploring the outdoors. With a little creativity, you can turn any park into the perfect birthday party venue.
Think of inviting smaller groups
For a more intimate celebration, consider inviting a smaller group of guests. This can help keep costs down while also creating a more personal atmosphere. You can still plan fun activities and games, but with a smaller group, your child will have more time to interact with each of their friends and create lasting memories.
Use affordable party supplies
You don’t need to spend a lot on party supplies to make your celebration look and feel festive. Basic supplies like paper plates, party hats, and helium balloons are available at an affordable price at most party stores. You can even save money by making your own decorations from scratch.
Make your own birthday cake
Why spend a fortune on a fancy birthday cake when you can make your own? With some basic baking skills and a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and personalised cake that all the children will love. You can even turn it into a fun family activity by letting your child help with the decoration.
Party bags
No kid’s birthday party is complete without party bags. You don’t have to spend a lot of money on expensive party favours – simple treats like lollies, stickers, or small toys are always a hit. You can even customise the party bags to match the birthday party theme. It’s a great way to say thank you to the kids and parents for coming and making the party extra special.
Party decorations
Decorations are a crucial part of any kids party. From balloons and streamers to themed banners, tablecloths and a bubble machine, the right decorations can create a super fun atmosphere that the kids love. You can also get creative with DIY decorations, like making your own photo booth or crafting personalised party hats. The possibilities are endless!
Party games
Games are a must-have at any kids party. Classic games like duck, duck, goose, and red light, green light are always a hit, but you can also get creative with DIY games that fit your party theme. And don’t forget the prizes!
Bounce party
For high-energy kids, consider having a bounce party. There are plenty of indoor bounce centres that offer party packages, complete with a dedicated party host and bounce time for the kids. With inflatable obstacle courses, slides, and bounce houses, a bounce party is sure to be a hit with kids of all ages.
Pin the tail on the donkey
Pin the tail on the donkey is a surefire crowd-pleaser for any kid’s birthday party. This game is easy to set up and can be customised to fit any party themes or age groups. You can even make your own donkey and tails as a fun DIY craft activity before the party.
Musical chairs
Musical chairs is another classic game that never gets old. All you need is some chairs and music, and you’re ready to go! Remember to play all your child’s favourite songs, making it more fun for everyone!
Pass the parcel
Pass the parcel is the ultimate kids party game. Wrap small treats or toys in layers of wrapping paper and watch the kids take turns tearing it apart to reach the prize. This game is easy to customise to fit any birthday party theme.
