The parties where children perform activities out of the ordinary or take other roles are setting the trends. A children’s party can become the best memory for a child, but at the same time can provide learning. On the rise, parties with different themes such as chefs, ecologists or artists.

Gone are the parties in which a clown ended up being bombarded with pies by a gang of hyperactive children, commanded by the little host. And also, those parties where there were no limits to the amount of sweets and soft drinks consumed by the children.

There are very professional clowns nowadays, who do this job very well, but the current trend is for them to be part of a party with a larger pedagogical purpose. Celebrations that teach, that’s what the new trend is about, which is not only what the little ones want, but a salvation for parents who sometimes do not know what to do when their child is celebrating their first birthday or when they graduate from pre-school.

It is about creating spaces in which children are immersed in a different world. Parents can choose the themes but must take into account the tastes and interests of children.

And today we will tell you 6 top ideas for children parties. Remember that slushies and smoothies bring a colourful, refreshing and tasty touch to your party and here at Snow Flow New South Wales  you can rent your slushy machines today.

Here, some ideas that have managed to impose on the market.

  1. For small artists

The idea is to invite children to build great projects, based on their creativity. To this end, artistic activities are organised, where the imagination of the children will lead them to try techniques of cutting, gluing and painting.

They should be supplied with aprons, implements to make their masterpieces. And accompany it with a soft music, that does not distract them from their purpose.

  1. The ecological party

Ideal spaces and environments can be created so that children during the event learn about good environmental practices. One idea is to teach them how to recycle with Pet bottles, how to cut them and adapt them to turn them into a bottle. Each child must have their implements and be supervised by adults.

Each child invited to the party, at the beginning of this, is given a tree, they adopt it, plant it and put a name and finally take it home for further care. Every party can be accompanied by a list of musical personalization according to the favourite music of parents and children. This can be coordinated between the recreationists and the parents so that they select well a music that is liked by the boys.

  1. Recognised chefs

Each child will wear a chef costume, he will have his apron, his little table, his resources. The guests of the party will learn from good cleaning practises, that they have to wash their hands and handle hygiene rules to manipulate the dough and the ingredients.

Then the adults will teach them to make pizzas during the party, and it will be very interesting for them to eat the fruit of what they have prepared.

  1. The inevitable puppets

The comics with puppets will contain a moral. Among the same dolls will be a problem close to children, about laziness, gluttony, there will be an honest puppet, another applied, another friendly. In the end, it is about the children discovering, by themselves, the teachings that the story tells them that the puppets tell them.

  1. Fashion show party

Parade of small stars. Wigs, hats, accessories and catwalk are an excellent combination for children to enjoy the fantasy of playing a character, dressing up or parading in the style of the best catwalks in the world. Adults may participate as jurors or take souvenir photographs. And there will be games and songs.

You can take the magic of a parade to the living room of a house. It puts a red velvet carpet, a curtain, recreates a scene setting with special effects of lights, sound and curtain. The children have a series of accessories such as wigs and hats and can bring a change of clothes for the parade.

If you prefer to celebrate outside, the leisure parks, zoos, aquariums, farms, schools and toy libraries are a highly recommended option. They are safe places and designed for the fun of the little ones, who will bring a special touch to the birthday. You will also find information in our useful addresses. It will cost more but you will only have to worry about the invitations. If you decide to celebrate at home, you can hire the services of a clown, magicians, a bouncy castle, puppets or a storyteller.

The invitations

Although you can buy ready-made invitations and limit yourself to filling them in with your information, it is a good idea to involve the child in the organisation of the party by asking him to prepare the cards himself. Buy coloured cards and print photos of a subject your child is passionate about (Disney characters, cartoons, footballers, comics …) or a picture of your children. Fold the card in half and paste some of those photos on the cover. Decorate the space that is free with drawings made with coloured markers and do not forget to put the message “I invite you to my party!”. Fill in the inside with all the information: place of the celebration, date, time, address and your telephone number and email address in case the parents of the other children want to get in touch with you.
