20 Travel-Inspired Birthday Party Ideas That Will Take Your Kid Around the World in 1 Day

Jun 26 2018 - 1:55pm

Let's get real — throwing a kid's birthday party [1] that's fun for both the kiddos and the adults is a tough task. From the food to the music to the entertainment, things can get overwhelming [2], and fast. It also doesn't help that so many birthdays seem to stick to the same few themes (unicorn [3], mermaid [4], Disney [5]). But this year, why not go off the beaten path and throw a staycation adventure instead? If your kid loves to explore, use travel as your party-planning inspiration. The invitations are their boarding pass, and as they enter your home, the flight attendants, aka the parents, take their ticket, and off they go to a faraway land without ever leaving the driveway. Going to Hawaii? Grab some leis and have a luau. Heading to East Africa? Get some beads to make bracelets and create a safari in your home. The world is wide, so get creative and make some memories!
