From choosing a theme and inviting guests, to preparing activities and surprises, we guide you step by step to make the party a success. Let's get started!

Choose a theme

Choosing a theme for a children's birthday party can be a fun part of organising the party. Some things to consider when choosing a theme include:

  1. Age of guests: choose a theme that is appropriate for the age of the children who will be attending the party. If the party is for babies or toddlers, you can choose simple and colourful themes. If the party is for older children, you can choose more complex themes or themes of interest to them.
  2. Child's likes and preferences: ask the child what they would like their birthday party to be about. If they have a favourite character or activity, you can base the theme on that.
  3. Season: if the party is during a special season, such as summer or Christmas, you can choose a theme related to that time of year.
  4. Budget: Consider your budget when choosing a theme. Some themes can be more expensive than others in terms of supplies and decorations.

Some ideas for children's birthday party themes are: cartoon animal characters, sports, areas of the world, masks, etc. With a little creativity, you're sure to find a theme that's perfect for the party. 

Invite Children in advance

It is important to invite guests in advance to ensure that they can attend the party. You should also consider the size of the venue and the number of children you can invite. Once you have decided who you want to invite, you can choose from different options for sending invitations, such as by post or digitally. Some things to consider when sending invitations are:

  • Include the date, time and place of the party.
  • Indicate whether an RSVP is required or whether it is sufficient to attend.
  • Ask parents to inform if the child has any dietary or other needs.
  • Provide a contact number for any questions or changes in plans.

Remember that it is important to be respectful of others' plans and availability when sending invitations.

Buy in advance everything you need for the party

Purchase the necessary supplies in advance so that you don't miss anything at the party. Some things to keep in mind when purchasing supplies are:

  • The theme of the party: Choose supplies that fit the theme of the party, such as balloons, piñatas or themed decorations.
  • The age of the guests: choose supplies and activities that are appropriate for the age of the children attending the party.
  • The location of the party: make sure you have enough chairs and tables for all the guests if the party will be held at home or outdoors.
  • Food and drink: buy or prepare enough food and drink for all guests, including healthy options tailored to everyone's dietary needs.

 

Prepare the house or the party venue

Prepare the house or the place where the party will be held so that everything runs smoothly. Some things to keep in mind when preparing the party venue are:

  • Cleanliness: make sure the house or party venue is clean and tidy before guests arrive.
  • Space: make sure you have enough space for the children and adults who will be attending the party, especially if there are activities or games planned.
  • Eating area: set up an area for guests to sit and eat comfortably.
  • Safety: make sure the party venue is safe for children by removing small or dangerous objects and closing unused doors or windows.

Remember that it is important to do a final check of the venue before guests arrive to make sure everything is in order.

Prepare activities and games

Choose some fun games and activities for the children, adapted to their age and tastes for the children's birthday party. Some ideas could be: piñatas, board games, craft workshops, etc. However, you should consider these things first:

  • Age of the children: choose activities and games that are appropriate for the age of the children attending the party. If there are older or younger children, you should take this into account.
  • Tastes and preferences: if you know the tastes and preferences of the children, you can choose activities and games that suit them.
  • Number of children: make sure you have enough activities and games so that all children can participate.
  • Supervision: if there are very young children at the party, it is important to have adults present to supervise and help with the activities and games.

Remember that it is important to have a variety of activities and games so that all children can participate and have fun.

Serving food and drink

In addition to serving, it is important that there is enough for everyone at the children's birthday party so that all guests are satisfied and can enjoy the party. Some things to consider when serving food and drink are:

  • Dietary needs: make sure you have healthy options adapted to the dietary needs of your guests, such as vegetarian or gluten-free options.
  • Quantity: buy or prepare enough food and drink for all guests.
  • Presentation: present food and drink in an attractive and appetising way.
  • Safety: make sure food and drink are at the right temperature and follow proper hygiene measures when preparing and serving them.

Some food and drink ideas for a children's birthday party include: pizzas, hot dogs, popcorn, soft drinks, ice cream, etc. Keep in mind that it is important to have healthy options adapted to the dietary needs of the guests so that everyone can enjoy the party.

Surprise with extra details

Why not give them a gift as a gesture of thanks for taking part in the party? Some ideas to surprise the guests are:

  • Gifts: you can give guests a small gift or souvenir at the end of the party. Some gift ideas are key rings, stickers or small toys.
  • Photo souvenir: you can hire a photographer or make a photo souvenir for the guests to remember the party.
