Birthday Party Ideas for Your Kids
Parents share their most memorable kids birthday party ideas. Discover fun, food & favors for your kid's next bash.
What is the most creative or unique at home kid's birthday party idea?
My parents had a party for me once where you came dressed as your mom or dad.
There was a party where the mom wrote a menu out in scrambled letters. You had to select one starter, one side and one main course. Then the kids got served what they ordered. All the foods were "kid-friendly" and the kids loved seeing what they actually ordered.
Best activities for at-home birthday parties?
I love the idea of an outdoor movie night. Project a movie on a screen outside, lounge around on sleeping bags and pillows, and pass around the snacks!
Inflatables are always a hit, though renting one can be pricy. We've done the giant slides in the past, and they are tons of fun for kids and adults!
Customization stations like make-your-own pizza or a top-your-own ice cream sundae bar.
We did a Minute to Win It game tournament when my son turned 8, and the boys loved it. Stacking pennies, balloon bounce, toilet paper mummies, stacking solo cups, etc.
