A Few Birthday Party Ideas For The Outdoors

Birthday parties are great fun for everyone involved

, especially kids. Planning an outdoor party gives you more freedom to choose themes and gives more space for guests to enjoy themselves. Here are six outdoor birthday party ideas that can bring a smile to the birthday boy or girl and create a memorable day for all.

On those hot summer days nothing says party like a great pool party. Decorate the backyard with some palm trees, beach balls, balloons, streamers, and tiki lamps to give it an authentic atmosphere and look. If you can find them, serve drinks in pineapple or even coconut cups. The pool is a great place to host a volley ball match or even a duck race, where everyone pushes a rubber duck by the nose from one end of the pool to the other end. For a real hit, host a squirt gun battle, team against team.

Another summertime fun birthday party idea for all ages is the Luau. You can create a tropical paradise in your backyard with inflatable palm trees, tiki lights, grass tablecloths or runners. Have your guests dress in grass skirts and Hawaiian shirts and put a lei around their neck when they arrive. Games are easy as you can have hula dancing, limbo contest, and even a hot potato game using a coconut.

Young boys and girls alike enjoy a bit of extreme sports today, skateboarding and biking is a big hit with them. Renting a skate park can allow them to have a good time under supervision, skating and riding the afternoon away. If that isn't a possibility, create games using the skateboards and even a scooter, like relay races. If a TV is available, set it up outdoors with a game system and a few skateboarding and extreme sports games and hold a contest.

Have a birthday party circus for the day. Decorating is easy with lots of colorful balloons, streamers, and maybe a little trapeze with a stuffed monkey on it to decorate. Have the guest of honor dress up as the ringmaster, hire some clowns or ask some friends to dress up like clowns. Making animal balloons is always fun for the kids and someone can make them or teach the kids to. Setting up some carnival type games like the bean bag toss or even horse shoes with prizes for winners will have everyone laughing and enjoying themselves.

Who said you had to sit around during a birthday party? Create an Olympic style day, which is great for the young and old. Obstacle races, bean bag tosses, relay races, and long jumps can all be scored, everyone's score tallied and winners at the end of the day. Complete the awards show with medals to wear around the neck like real Olympian winners. With kids, making sure each goes home with some kind of medal will make them feel special.

Throw on some cowboy boots and host a Wild West party. Decorating is easy with some hay bales, checkered tablecloths, and some horse shoes here and there. Guests can dress up like cowboys and cowgirls, sporting their hats and boots proudly. Once you turn on the country music you can host a square dance and have games like throwing the rope and pin the tail on the horse. Little ones will especially love a pony ride.

Creating the right atmosphere and fun for a birthday party can be easy if you use one of these outdoor birthday party ideas or even indoor birthday party ideas. You can make the day memorable not only for the birthday boy or girl, but for all the guests that help celebrate the day. So go ahead and host a luau or a rodeo, get everyone's heart pumping with a mini Olympic day or some extreme skateboarding fun. The choices are endless and the fun never stops.
