Summer birthdays can be a challenge, especially if you live in a warm weather climate like I do (119 degrees this weekend… YIKES!). But it’s also the perfect time to play around with water themed fun. This week, we’re celebrating our Under the Sea themed invitations and printable party decor, along with some fun food, fun, and favor themes!
Inviting Your Guests
Every great party theme starts with the invitation. We have several different Under the Sea invitations available: for boys, for girls, photo invitations, and more!
Party Venue
If the budget allows, you can really have fun with this! A local aquarium, like Downtown Aquarium or Sea Life are great options for your party locale. Another fun option would be a local water park. Most offer birthday packages that include admission for all of your guests, with all of the attractions, would eliminate the need for other birthday activities. The beach, local splash pad, or even a backyard pool are also great options.
Fun Food Ideas
Sometimes it’s difficult to find food ideas that tie into the theme, but we found tons of great ideas this week! Here are a few of our favorites:
These sand dollar snickerdoodles from Mama Miss are just too cute!
Look at these little beauties from LivingWellSpendingLess.com! So pretty, yet so simple!
Our Buffet Cards add a sweet touch to all of your dishes.
I can’t even explain how much I love these Dinglehopper Cake Pops from Disney Family! So Awesome!
Entertainment
Whether you choose games, crafts, or other party entertainment depends largely on the age group you have in attendance. Here are some fun ideas:
