If your child has a summer birthday, a surfing birthday party is the perfect theme to use to celebrate. Use these ideas to make sure all of your guests are hanging ten. Does this Spark an idea?
Invitations
Cover a piece of poster board in brightly patterned contact paper. Trace and cut out surfboard shapes, and write the party information on the back of them.
Decorations
Use brightly colored beach towels as tablecloths. Cut up blue paper tablecloths to look like waves, tape them to the walls, and prop surf boards against them.
Food
Serve fruit skewers and fruit dip. Also eat Hawaiian pizza and goldfish crackers.
Cake
Frost a 9- by 13-inch cake to look like a beach by covering half of it in crushed graham crackers and the other half in blue frosting. Put gummy fish and plastic surfboards in the water.
Games
Play "Pin the Surfboard" by cutting the surfboard out of a poster of a surfer. Make paper surfboards and ask each child try to pin the surfboard under the surfer's feet while blindfolded. Use a coconut to knock down pineapples for "coconut bowling."
