For instance, if your child is a girl, you can modify Pin the Tail on the Donkey into Pin the Bow on the Princess, or whatever tickles your fancy. One party game raved about by young and old guests alike is Charades. For your young guests, you can have participants guess animals and objects by having one of them act out what the animals do, while the rest try to guess what animals they are. It won't matter whether he or she will be dressed as an affluent princess or a walking trash can, as long as it involves having to wear a costume and being the center of attention for a while, children will embrace the chance. Thus, if you want to have an extra fun birthday celebration for your child, a themed party should be in the works. Not only will this party be fun, it could be a fantastic learning experience for all, as well. Character Party You can do this kind of children's party two ways: either you choose a specific cartoon and revolve the party's theme around it, or you can hold a costume party of different characters. This child's party requires some level of preparation, but costumes are available for sale or rent everywhere, so it shouldn't be too difficult. This is what will make your party go down in history, so to speak. Even if you put so much effort on the food, the invitations and the decorations, it is the entertainment that will define how well your party went. Thus, while you're trying to work under a budget with your kid's birthday party, you should never scrimp on the entertainment. Anyone who continues to move or fails to keep a "frozen" position while the music is out is out of the game. The last child standing (or dancing) wins. 4) Charades This game is not exclusive to children's birthday parties or to kids. In fact, even adults have fun playing this. Kids will have an easier time making guesses if you use animals or common objects to act out. Make sure you inform your guests what kind of party you're throwing so they can bring their suits and a change of clothes. Animal Party You can rent out farm animals and bring them to your yard for the kids to pet, or you can ask your guests to bring in their own pets. This birthday party idea not only opens the kids' eyes to different kinds of animals, but also enhances their social skills.
