Your child’s birthday is an exciting time for them as well as for you. Irrespective of their age, every child loves a good celebration that reminds them of how loved and cherished they are. As a parent, you want to ensure that your child’s birthday goes perfectly.
But planning a birthday party for your daughter may not be the easiest task. You often don’t know what's in style and what isn’t. You’re not sure what she finds cool, or what trends she follows. Growing children often go through so many phases that it can be hard for a parent to keep track of them all.
In short, you’re often clueless about what to do.
We’ve shortlisted some of the most interesting birthday ideas you can use to make your daughter's birthday memorable:
1. Plan a Disney princess birthday dinner
It may be cliche to say that girls love Disney, but who doesn’t love Disney? So, why not let your child be their favorite Disney princess for the day?
Every girl dreams of being a Disney princess at one point in their lives. So make their dreams come true by hosting your own Disney princess themed birthday dinner. All you have to do is ask your daughter to dress up as the princess she wants to be, and decorate everything according to the theme she chooses.
Decorate the venue with cardboard cutouts of different Disney princesses and get a cake to match. Set up the perfect dinner table with a vibrant tablecloth, some pink paper cups and plates, and a menu fit for a princess. Whether you're serving the special "Eat Me" cookies from Alice in Wonderland or Snow White’s "poisoned" candied apples, your daughter will have a birthday to remember.
Have your guests dress up their daughters as princesses, and hand out plastic tiaras as a themed party favor to add to the fun.
2. Set up your own movie night
Who doesn’t love the classic dinner and movie combination? Keep the birthday festivities going by setting up a small movie night for your daughter and her guests.
You don’t need an elaborate or costly set up to keep the kids happy. Get some bowls of buttered popcorn and candy, and set up the living room couches with blankets and pillows. Dim the lights to create that movie theatre experience and put on your daughter’s favorite Disney movie.
You can add to the experience by setting up a DIY ice cream sundae corner on one table. Line up a few of your daughters' favorite flavors, fill some bowls with sprinkles, chocolate chips, and other toppings, and have the kids live the dream by making their own customized ice cream sundaes as they sit back to enjoy their movie.
3. Get the perfect birthday poster
No birthday is complete without the right decorations. And what better way to decorate a birthday party than through customized posters and invitations?
A good poster is the centerpiece of any fun birthday party. It’s the first thing to catch the attention of your guests and it sets the tone for the rest of the party.
Getting a bunch of posters made and printed the traditional way can be heavy on the pocket. But it doesn’t have to be. With free online design tools like PosterMyWall, you can get access to a range of fun, themed templates to create your own special birthday poster.
You can personalize your poster according to the theme of your daughter’s birthday and add all your favorite elements at no cost. So, if the party is Disney princess themed, add some pictures of your daughter’s favorite princess and line up the poster with tiara and wand stickers. Choose a cursive font with a royal appeal and set the backdrop to your child’s favorite color. With just a few easy edits, your personalized poster will be ready to go.
If you want your poster in multiple formats, look no further. You can resize your design for free to match your needs. Send it out as a fun invite, print and stick it on your walls to highlight the event, or just hand it out as a flyer to each guest that walks in.
Planning your daughter’s birthday party may not be the easiest task in the world, and you may not know if you’re doing things right. But with these creative ideas, you’re sure to win Parent of the Year and give your daughter a birthday celebration she'll always cherish.
