Are you looking to throw an at-home birthday bash for your little love? Look no further for awesome theme ideas that are timeless. If you aren’t all that big into throwing parties, these ideas are great for you too! They are easy, fun, and can be done as elaborately or simply as you like, or as your budget allows.

Day at the Zoo or Safari

Here’s a great idea for toddlers and preschoolers. Offer jungle animal masks to all the party guests so everyone can be the wild animal of their choice. (Or have the kids make their own.) Tablecloths, plates, and napkins can have different animal prints, and you can have cookies decorated as lions and tigers and monkeys. Don’t forget the animal crackers. Play a game of Hungry, Hungry Hippos, and give out little animal figurines as party favors. (Smaller animal figurines make great cupcake toppers too!) An elephant-shaped piñata would be a fun addition to the party. You could even make this a “destination” party and take everyone to the zoo!
