The secret to a successful party for boys is plenty of activity and very little, if any, downtime. Use the birthday boy’s interests as a starting point for coming up with a party theme; in fact, most kids like being in on the planning of a party more than they like being surprised. An activity-filled party, along with some hearty fare, will result in fun-filled memories for both the birthday celebrant and his guests.

Years ago it was a common practice to send kids out into the neighborhood on their own, even at night, for a scavenger hunt adventure. Today scavenger hunts are still a popular birthday party activity, but parents need to take certain precautions and make some arrangements ahead of time to assure kids’ safety. With this in mind, a scavenger hunt can make for an entertaining and memorable birthday party for kids in elementary and middle school.

Whether you need tasteful invitations for an adult get-together or themed ones for a child’s party, you have options for do-it-yourself birthday party invitations. Buying quality invitations can be expensive, and they might not fit with the party theme. Making your own birthday party invitations is the solution. You can pick a method of inviting guests and the materials that meet your needs, ranging from handmade paper-crafted invitations to printed ones to e-vites.
