Where The Wild Things Party Inspirations

Where the Wild Things Are Invitation

Where the Wild Things Are is a timeless classic enjoyed by children (and nostalgic adults) everywhere. The story itself centers around a boy liberated by his creative imagination, so regardless of if you’re putting on a party for children, adults, or both, this theme is one that can truly be enjoyed by everyone!

While there’s a lot you can do with this theme, one icon you have to include is the crown! This image is a big part of the story, so use it for decorations, food and treats, favors, and even group activities involving the guests making their own creative crowns to wear during the party. Another aesthetic that is a must for this party is the island/tropical look. Opt for lots of not just palm tree-esque décor, but also plenty of jungle/island foliage. Add nature music specific to this along with low lighting and a fog machine, and your guests will feel transported into the actual story! Other great colors to incorporate into your party are golds and browns, with lush greens and pops of ocean turquoise. Bringing in actual images from the pages of the renowned children’s book is also a perfect addition to the party, and this can include anything from copied pages up on the walls or in banners, silhouettes of page art images, or phrases from the book posted on your cupcakes! It has never been easier to create a truly magical ambience for every age.

Elephant Themed Birthday Party

Contrary to the popular saying, it actually is a good thing to have an elephant (or several!) in the room! When searching for a universally joyful theme for a birthday party, look no further than an elephant motif. Your event can be just as larger than life and loveable as an elephant itself, and when it comes to decor, food, favors, and game options, you are definitely without limits.

No matter the age range of your guests, young and old alike has a special affinity for the cute elephant. From a light array of adorable decorations to maybe even a more serious, black and gold-toned cultural element, you can go in just about any direction when it comes to this theme. Bring the jungle into your venue space, and don’t forget to include animal crackers (plain and frosted alike!) into your food spread. Colorful balloons with elephant silhouettes, Dumbo or The Little Princess playing in the background, and glittery flower puffs hanging from the ceiling with sweet cartoon elephant designs are all wonderful ways to showcase a world adoration for the kindest creatures on earth. You can even get your guests in on some fun activities with intricate, Indian pages to color, or even paint-by-numbers. Regardless of all you choose to bring your party together, it will be a truly special and unforgettable birthday.

A birthday party is an occasion to celebrate an awesome milestone no matter what the age!

Decoration Ideas

For decorations, a sugar and spice birthday party should have a fairly easy to follow color palate. Think chocolate brown mixed with pastels of pinks and blues. Regardless of whether you’re throwing a party for a boy or girl, all these hues can be incorporated beautifully. Dark brown tablecloths with pastel blue or pink lace runners, along with accent pieces placed around the venue such as bags that say “sugar” and “spice”, or all different sorts of salt, pepper, and sugar shakers. Streamers in the same colors, along with garland cutouts of sweet baby sugar treats and twinkling fairy lights are all fantastic additions to your party décor. Don’t forget creative centerpieces, and opt for bowls or jars full of sweet smelling roses or peonies paired with cinnamon sticks for an extra scent of spice and a gorgeous, unique look.

Food Ideas

Food is super fun for a sugar and spice themed birthday party. You can create a birthday cake that is multi-tiered with half white frosting and half chocolate frosting, complete with garnishes of both white and red lilies and toppers of table shakers. Apart from the cake, it’s a great idea to have two separate food tables sanctioned off into “spice” themed and “sugar” themed foods. For the sweeter table, have the birthday cake along with cakepops, richly frosted sugar cookies and cupcakes, macaroons, and sweet candies in beautiful glass jars. For the spicier table, opt for cucumber jalapeño sandwiches or peppered deviled eggs. You don’t have to be super spicy and you can definitely have some saltier fares for guests available such as dips and chips. For beverages, you can definitely offer the normal lemonades, punches, and sodas, and also think about having a tea bar set up! Here, guests can choose from sweet to spicy teas to enjoy during the party and it goes perfectly with the theme!

Game Ideas

Games can be just about anything you desire, from classic board games to more interactive games like charades or catchphrase. You can also whip up some cute themed games such as sugar and spice bingo or sugar and spice mad libs. You can also play a game called ‘guess the spice’ game where you prepare jars of spices for the guests to look and guess!. You can even create an activity for party guests in which ingredients are provided and they make their own little jars of a sugary spice mix!

Favor Ideas

Favors are equally as fun to put together for party guests, because you can really give them an adorable assortment of goodies. Fill pink or blue bags with gourmet chocolate treats, peppered hot chocolate, and spicy nuts (assuming no one has allergies), along with all different sorts of sugars and seasonings or guests to take home and enjoy!

SpongeBob party Ideas

SpongeBob Party Invitations

They have so many great SpongeBob birthday decorations that your only challenge will be deciding on which ones to use! Here are a few ideas that will compliment any SpongeBob party theme:

Invitations

Let SpongeBob’s smiling face get your guests in the adventurous spirit with SpongeBob Invitations! You can also personalize them by gluing them to an actual sponge or cutting a starfish or pineapple from stock paper and including it inside the invitation with a special message for your guests.

Party Decor

SpongeBob Scene Setter Decoration Set is a must-have for an underwater-themed party. And what would SpongeBob say about a party without table decorations or a pinata? Barnacles, that’s what! You can also hang blue streamers from the ceiling to resemble waves and green ones for seaweed. And, of course, don’t forget to play SpongeBob music in the background!

Food & Drink

What better food to put on SpongeBob Classic Square Dinner Plates than fish sticks, SpongeBob Pirate’s Booty popcorn, goldfish crackers, and Krusty Krab Cakes (actual crab cakes or hamburgers). You can also make yellow cake cupcakes with yellow frosting and showcase them on the SpongeBob Cupcake Stand.

And most of all … have F.U.N. the SpongeBob way:

F is for friends who do stuff together
U is for you and me
N is for anywhere and anytime at all
Down here in the deep blue sea!
