Give each party guest a zoo themed mask or headband on arrival. There are tons of multi-packs available that include animals such as monkeys, lions, zebras, and elephants. The masks will allow children to have fun disguising themselves and also make for memorable photos.

Zoo Food and Drinks

No party is complete without food! A multi-tiered cake is the perfect way to encompass a variety of zoo animals and settings. Cookies can also be made to look just like zoo animals by using cut-outs. There are cut-outs available for many zoo animals such as lions, tigers, giraffes, and birds. Cupcakes with zoo animals’ toppers also make a nice addition to the dessert area. For a salty treat, you could set out “Cheetos for Cheetahs” or “Peanuts for Elephants.”

Beverages are a must! To add some fun to the beverage area, you can call it the “watering hole.” Tropical punch is a great choice for a zoo themed party. Some guests might prefer water. You can dress up your plain plastic water bottles with zoo themed wrappers. Many wrappers are even able to be customized.

Zoo Party Games

Make sure guests don’t get bored by playing party games. If you have a large open area, you can play monkey tag, which is a variation of the classic freeze tag. A safari scavenger hunt is also a great way to get people moving. Many zoo themed games can be purchased for indoor areas as well.

If you’re looking for a quiet game after all the energy starts to die down, sleeping lions might be the perfect option. For this game, everyone gets to lie on the floor and pretend to be asleep. If anyone gets caught moving, they are out!

A photo booth is also a great way to keep both young and old guests occupied. There are many different photo props for a zoo themed party such as animal ears, glasses, and even outfits! The backdrop could be a solid color or zoo themed. There are lots of options available.

Zoo Party Favors

Zoo animal themed glasses or zoo animal crayons make for a fun party favor and a great photo opportunity. For favors on a budget, you can place animal crackers in decorative zoo themed baggies.

Let’s Fiesta Party for Twin Boys

To celebrate a milestone 1 year birthday for adorable twin boys, mom-to-be wanted colors and fun, so a Let’s Fiesta theme was the perfect way to go.

Using a fantastic mix of bright shades of yellow, green, blue, and orange, the venue area was an absolute delight. The serving table was a delicious centerpiece to the room and with a bold, black backdrop it was also very unique. Bright paper medallions made a neat accent to the whole look. A cute little chalkboard menu was also created and placed on the table, making it a breeze for everyone to know what the tasty choices were. The centerpiece on the table was a vibrantly colored pinata that the kids got to beat-up later and get some sweet candies from.

Aside from safe goodies for the little ones like applesauce pouches and cheddar bunnies, the food was very Mexican oriented, to bring the theme to life. There were three types of salsa, ensuring something yummy for everyone, rustic roasted, roasted tomatillo and corn. Also made were tasty baked chicken taquitos, baked tex-mex pimento cheese dip, fruit salad, and an entire guacamole bar with all sorts of toppings and mixes.

For a safe method of distribution, tortilla chips were placed in brown lunch bags so each guest could have some that little fingers hadn’t been grabbing already.

Of course if you have a Fiesta, you have to have a scrumptious margarita, so an entire station was set-up for everyone to enjoy. Of course, for the young ones and adults who don’t like the margaritas, a variety of other beverages were offered like water, lemonade, and Corona.

The take home gifts were adorable rubber duckies that had been dressed up as a mariachi band, creating a memento that fit the theme in a creative and entertaining way.
