Birthdays are huge milestones for both parents and children. It’s right that there’s no need to put in a lot of effort as they’re young and will likely forget but it doesn’t stop you from getting excited and putting on a full spread. If your child’s birthday’s coming up and you’re short of ideas, don’t worry as we have a list of the 5 best birthday party ideas for children here.
This post was made in collaboration with St Helen’s school who also provide venue hire in Watford.
A Superhero Theme
You can request that all of your guests dress up as their favourite superhero. It gets them involved and is an easy theme to work with as most children like superheroes and lots of fun decorations and party games can be found.
A Craft Party
Children love glitter and all of that razzle dazzle. It’s also good for their development as it helps them to work on building their fine motor skills and creativity. While the children will love it, one thing that’s definitely worth considering is mess. There will be a lot of it that you need to clear up at the end of the day.
A Soft Play Centre
If you have a younger child, a soft play centre is perfect. There will be lots to keep them entertained and they often provide catering for birthday parties, making it one less thing for you to worry about.
Disney Themed Party
Disney isn’t hard to do. Just like the superhero themed parties, you can request that all attendees dress up as their favourite Disney characters.
Water Theme
Last but not least we have a water theme. If your child loves their nerf guns, they will really appreciate this. Just make sure that you warn your guests in advance!
