Bowling Birthday
Hosting a bowling birthday is a fun idea for children of many ages. A bowling birthday is versatile and inexpensive party that can be held at home or an actual bowling alley. When holding a bowling birthday party at home, decorate with giant bowling balls and pins made from construction paper or tagboard.
Bowling Birthday
For bowling birthday party games, many discount stores sell colorful plastic bowling sets, but you may also use just about anything to be knocked over by a ball: empty cans, milk cartons, soda bottles, etc. Another versatile bowling idea is domino bowling, where children build their own domino tracks to knock over. Food for bowling parties can simply be what you would find at a bowling alley: pizza, hotdogs, nachos, hamburgers and sodas.

Throwing a butterfly birthday is a fun spring birthday idea. A butterfly birthday is perfect because butterflies represent the playful freedom that little girls enjoy. Butterflies come in many colors, which will make it easy for you to choose the butterfly decorations that reflect her favorite colors.

Hang metallic (or plastic) butterflies on strings from the ceiling inside the house. Place any butterfly related toys (e.g. flowers, bugs, etc.) as butterfly decorations around the party area. Attach butterfly pictures or posters to the walls for a colorful effect. Have guests make their own coffee filter butterfly decorations or have a butterfly antennae craft activity with a headband, 2 pipe cleaners rounded into a loose, slinky shape and 2 small Styrofoam balls. Wrap the pipe cleaners to the headband and glue the balls to the top of each pipe cleaner.

Sleepover Birthday
Girls love a sleepover birthday. At this sleepover birthday go beyond movies, munchies and staying up all night, with this fun-filled sleepover party for girls ages 8-12. When you combine pajamas, facials and manicures the sleepover becomes a spa birthday party. Be sure to designate a large space in your home for your spa birthday party, by arranging furniture and other items.
Sleepover Birthday
Provide several floor pillows, couch cushions and blankets for a comfortable space for the girls to hang out. Hang twinkle light strands around the party area. Decorate the birthday table like a bed using a twin sheet and a pillow at the head and spread confetti stars on the top of the sheet. Make sure that guests bring pajamas, sleeping bags and a pillow to the sleepover birthday. Simple spa treatments like manicures and facial masks make wonderful activities for the little beauty queens.
A fun craft for the beauty queens to take home is an adorable sleep mask. Visit www.treasureboxkids.com for children’s clothing and ideas. Look through our archived blog posts for more activities, crafts, tips and birthday party ideas.
Sleep Mask:
Create a template to trace onto craft felt. Punch holes in the sides of the felt to attach mask ribbons.
Facial Mask:
For one girl’s face mask, mash a quarter of an avocado in a bowl, then stir in one tablespoon of yogurt. Apply fixture to the face with a sponge, avoiding the eyes. Place a cucumber slice over each closed eye. Wash off facial mask after 15 minutes.
Manicure Station:
Light colored and sparkled nailpolish works for little manicures. Mom can create a little appointment book for guests. A bowl of soapy water to soak little hands is a great touch.
Safari Party
Hold a safari party for little boys who love zoo animals. Download pictures of lions, giraffes and other jungle animals for early guests to color at the safari party. Many tourists go on safari to watch and photograph wildlife; guests at your child’s safari birthday can search for hidden wildlife with toilet paper binoculars. Decorate animal masks and have teams of “animals” hide while tourists use their binoculars to seek.
