Kids party theme ideas

Here’s a list of kids party theme ideas for kids birthday parties. Planning a kids birthday party can take a lot of time and effort, having a good theme can make the process a little bit easier. 

Choosing the best kids party theme

Making a brilliant and unforgettable birthday party for your child is a big project. 

Whether you’re hosting the party at home or away from home there is a lot to plan. 

Having a party theme is a great way of focusing your efforts – and of putting a smile on all the guests’ faces. 

Once you know your party theme you can make a final decision on where to host the party. 

You can also start to work out the entertainment. 

Brilliant kids party theme ideas

Here’s a list of great kids party theme ideas for children. 

The list includes ideas that are great for both boy’s parties and girl’s birthday parties. 

Some of them are classic theme ideas.

Whereas some of them are more unusual birthday party themes or totally unique. 

Take a look at the list and see what inspires you. 

Now, before you go off with a shortlist to share with your birthday-child to be, can I offer you one tip?

Here it is… make the shortlist SHORT. A max of two themes to choose from is plenty. 

Plus, make sure that the theme is doable before you offer your child a choice. 

You DO NOT  want to set yourself up with an impossible task. 

Oh and I’ve started a Kids Party Themes section on my Kids Party Ideas Pinterest board.
