Birthday Party Theme

Choosing a birthday party theme can either get your creative juices going or it can give you a creative stumbling block. If you've got the block, we can help.

Birthday Party Theme #1:

Bells & Whistles - This party has nothing to do with trains, but everything to do with competition. Perfect for the spring or summer, have your party outside and put on different relay races, bike races, long jump competitions, and anything else that requires a bell or whistle.

Birthday Party Theme #2:

Flour Power - No, this isn't a bake off. It's a tagging game of tag. All players wear black shirts and are given a nylon stocking full of flour and tied off and shaped like balls. You play tag as normal, but when tagging someone, you tag them by throwing your flour ball and tagging their shirts. The referee calls that player out. The player with the cleanest shirt wins.

Birthday Party Theme #3:

Cold Feet - You'll need two small inflatable pools, some water, and a lot of ice. Split your guest into two teams. Fill the pools with water and have a member of each team stand in each pool. Upon the whistle blow, dump 20 ice cubes in and the players have to get as many out as they can using only their feet in a 60 second time span. Then the next set of players does it, etc. The team that got the most ice out of the pool wins. So where do you find invitations to match these crazy parties and zany games? Look at your fingertips. That's where you'll find them because you are going to create them yourself online. What better way to ensure your party is well represented?

Create your own personal party web page to match your birthday party theme, easily and quickly online. Then send out the invitations electronically (via email) that will bring your guests to your web page through a provided link in the email invitations. They'll be swept away by your page that holds pictures of your birthday child, the party information, personalized decorations, and possibly a video. Why not add a video of your child or a video of something related to the party? An example for the Bells & Whistles party would be a video of the Olympics. Add a whistle and some bells to the page and add sound to them for effect.

Your guests can respond back to you online and see what other guest responded. You can even post their pictures beside their names for them and let them start communicating with you and each other. When the party is over, change the page to share pictures or videos of the party. Play some music on the page and post some more new announcements. With over 60 multi media tools, the possibilities are endless. Best of all? It's free. Just go to Eventslisted.com and make your personalized birthday party theme web page. Once you see how easy it is, you'll want to make more pages. And you can.
