Any ideas for a 7yr old girl birthday party?
Answer:
Whatever you do, DON'T have a slumber party! At 7 years old, many kids freak out about spending the night in a strange place without parents. You'll spend 1/2 the night trying to get parents to pick up their crying children.
Cookie or cupcake decorating can be fun at that age- give every girl some cookies or cupcakes, set out some frosting and candies, and let them go at it. It's a snack and an activity all rolled into one, and they can bring their extra creations home with them. It's also minimal in cost, and you don't have to worry about anyone getting hurt like you would with a moon bounce or something.
Other crafts are good too- give them some beads and string and let them make necklaces, or give them paints to decorate t-shirts. Just keep 'em busy. They might also decide to "do their own thing" and play house or hide and seek or some other typical kid thing.
Have a slumber party. She's old enough. Girls love a slumber party more than any themed party. Put together some fun games to play, order pizza, and have a blast.
About what Krista says about not having a slumber party. I've done them and if the kids know you and like you. They'll stay. And about staying up half the night. Your child gets one party a year and I don't think it should be a bother to stay up half the night. It's fun. Look into it. But just incase just put on the invite,6:30 till ? and in the additional comments area put, Please bring pillow, blanket, and phone number.
A friend of mine had a party for her childs that was book-themed. The gifts were to be books, or book themed ( say, a copy of a cindrella book and a pretty tiara to go with it). The guests were asked to dress up like there favorite character in a book they like. It was a great success, the parents and the kids liked it. Your treats could be centered around a certain story, games, etc.
Slumber parties are awesome for that age, not too many friends though
You can have a spa party. Have her girlfriends over and do hair up fancy, paint their toenails and fingernails, put on make-up. The girls think it's such a "big person" thing to do, they feel all grown up. They could even go out after they are all dolled up and hit the scene at McD's!!
a macdonald's or simple family party for a change?;)
my daughter is 8 and has almost all the themed partys too. for the last recent birthdays, we did a "build-a-bear" party from the build-a-bear store, we did a pottery party, where the kids get to chose a premade piece of pottery to paint, or they can even make their own piece, and paint it, and we also did a rollerskating party , and we also did a beach party. for that one we went to the store and got blow up palm trees, swim tubes, beach balls, and lays(?) for the decorations. then for activities, we did sand art, i got large seashells to paint, i got small art frames to glue small seashells to, and the kids were asked to wear their bathing suits!! it was a blast!! hope i could help...good luck
tea party - decorate hats, eat cucumber or pbj sandwiches
Design hats for a children's hospital - each kid makes a different design hats
American Girl party - pick the American Girl and do the party around that girl's life.
An old-fashioned party - pin the tail on the donkey, party games, cake and ice-cream
In the Malls there is a glam girl boutique and maybe her and her friends can play dress up. I thought it was a great Idea. Also there is a company that does tea parties not sure if there is one in you area but they do exist.
Have you asked her what she wants?! Get her favorite friends together and have a girls day out, eg. movie, lunch, pedicures, manicures, the girl stuff.
medieval times she can be the princess
