Turn your yard into a tropical paradise with simple luau decorations.
Regardless of the season or where you live, a luau birthday party transports your guests to a tropical destination right in your own home or backyard. For a truly successful party, use appropriate luau decorations for kids. Does this Spark an idea?
Table Centerpieces
Add a splash of color to the tables with tropical centerpieces, which also double as dessert or party favors. Build a mountain of fresh fruit using coconuts, mangoes, bananas, pineapples and kiwifruit. As the party winds down, cut the fruits up and offer them to party guests as a sweet treat. Other centerpiece ideas include filling clear vases with shells or flower leis, both of which can serve as party favors as the luau party ends.
Lighting
Even if the party is held during the day, appropriate lighting helps set the mood for a tropical luau birthday party. Line the backyard with tiki torches for an instant island atmosphere. If the party lasts into the night, light a fire in a fire pit for a more authentic feel. If the party is indoors, use colorful paper lanterns to set the scene.
Inflatables
If your budget allows it, rent or purchase inflatable luau decorations. Group inflatable palm trees in the corner of a yard and line the walkways with inflatable tiki poles. Use inflatable lobsters, parrots and fish to decorate trees, tables and chairs.
