Child Party Ideas

The theme of your event can be gleaned from slight hints, such as a subtle design on your invites, through to the extreme; for example posting each guest a live tiger with your invite pinned to his belly for a jungle themed bash….. (please note that we do not recommend this!)

Your party can be as drastic or as subtle as you wish. Invites are your initial contact with your guests, so if you require their involvement or contributions towards your theme, this is when to tell them! If you did decide to go for a Jungle Theme, perhaps the use of zebra or leopard print card would help your guests to get some ideas. If you want your friends to come dressed as wild jungle animals, bounty hunters or explorers; you must tell them!

So, once you have posted your invite (specifying whether or not fancy dress is required…) this is when the other elements of your theme need to come together. If you are planning an ethnic evening, you will require ethnic food. For an Arabian Nights party, sumptuous silk, organza and heavily beaded wall hangings will emphasis your theme. Props and Table Decorations will play a heavy part in creating a suitable atmosphere; spooky pumpkin heads and cobwebs for Halloween, or lava lamps and swirly patterned tablecloths for a 70's bash. Consider your sound and lighting - for an ‘Hollywood Oscar Night', what better way for your guests to arrive in all their finery than under a spotlight, on a red carpet, sectioned off from the ‘common folk' by pillars and rope, to be met by a charming manservant to take their coats and offer a glass of chilled champagne…..

Theme ideas are easy to come by if you think of one of your favourite:

• Colours • People • Periods of Time • Places
