3 Unique Party Ideas for Kids*

Some parents love planning birthday parties for their kids and they go to a lot of effort to make sure it’s perfect. Other parents struggle with the pressure and find it quite overwhelming, especially since people seem to be coming up with increasingly more weird and wonderful ideas. Of course, you could go with the safe bet of a disco in the local hall, or you could put your imagination to the test. Here are 3 unique ideas to get you started:

A Trip to the Farm/Theme Park

Depending on the age of your child, you could ditch the idea of a traditional party and head to your nearest farm or theme park with one or two of your child’s friends. This might be a little more affordable than hiring out a hall and perfect if your child is a summer baby because it will also get you out of the house during the holidays. 

Mobile Petting Zoo

Another option for your kid’s party entertainment is a mobile petting zoo. Most kids love petting animals and this type of party will also give the children a chance to learn some new facts about the natural habitats and usual diets of each of the pets.

A Cake Decorating Party

If your child loves baking, this is a great idea. Lots of small local businesses have started offering this as a party option and it usually lasts around 1 hour to 90 minutes. At the end of the party, the children will each have lots of tasty treats to take home, meaning you won’t really have to prepare party bags. 

There are loads of options when it comes to kids’ birthday parties and if you’re struggling financially, you could consider combining with a friend to split the costs. With that said, it doesn’t have to cost a lot to host a truly enjoyable party for your child.
