The Pet Party
The pet party is such a fun idea that once you do it, you will wonder why you didn't think of it before. You can use this idea for your beloved pet's birthday, or for your birthday, or for a loved one's special day. Invite owners and their pets and have treats for all. Take Polaroids of pets and their owners arriving together. Create pet-and-person games with fun prizes, set up snack stations where pets can browse favorite snacks, water, and toys. Be sure to find a location that has secure fencing so you can let the pets run and jump and play while their owners are lounging and enjoying the view. The pet party is a unique party idea you will want to return to again and again.
The Roller Skate Party
Roller skating is back in vogue for both the younger set and the feels-younger set. Roller skating rinks are cropping up in major cities around the country, and many host roller skating parties and will even reserve space for you and your crew where you can set out snacks, sing happy birthday, open presents, take photos and more. The roller skate party is also a great way to have a family-friendly birthday party for adults where moms, dads, and kids can attend together to celebrate a birthday for a guest of honor of any age.
The Costume Pub Crawl Race
This unique birthday party idea is a sure-fire hit for the college-aged or young-at-heart guest of honor. There are three elements to making this fun birthday idea into a success. First, all the guests must come in costume. You can set a theme, such as vampires or toga, or just ask the guests to come in costume. Next, set up an easy route from one pub to several others that can be run-walked by the participants. Finally, if you will have a large enough crowd, approach the pub owners or managers to find out if you can have drink discounts or free drinks for your guests. Issue them a score card and have the pub stamp their card when they arrive. The guests who visit the most pubs, who finish the fastest, or who have the most inventive costumes can win special prizes. Also a couple of safety tips will make your birthday party memorable and successful. Make sure to tell your guests to wear their jogging shoes and drink plenty of water along with their adult beverages.
