Pool Party Theme Ideas
Fun Swimming Pool Party Ideas - Decorations, Invitations, Activities and Party Favors
It's summer time again! What's better then a pool party for a birthday theme? These ideas can also be used for
splash parties and luaus.
| Invitations For fun invitations to the pool party there are several options: Write party information on beach balls and send to guests. Write party information on Frisbees and send to guests. Send party information "message in a bottle" style - fill empty plastic water bottles (remove label) with a little sand and seashells and insert party information into the bottle. Decorate outside of bottle. Send sunglasses with party information attached. For a pirate pool party send a treasure map style invitation. |
Decorations
To make the pool party extra special decorate using:
Use colorful beach towels for table cloths.
Place sand and seashells in the center of tables.
Fill buckets with sand and tie helium balloons to the handles.
Hang fishnets around the edge of the party and fill with shells, crabs and seahorses.
Hang blow-up beach balls around the party area.
Place beach balls by the mailbox with a sign or helium balloons to tell party guests "This is the place!"
Decorate with palm trees (easy to make by cutting out large green leaves then hang about 20 straight gold or brown ribbon strands from the middle to make a hanging trunk. These can be as
tall as you want - just make the ribbons long. )
Activities
Fun activities for pool parties:
Make funky flip-flops
Buy cheap flip-flops for each guest. Cut colorful fabric into strips 1 - 1.5 inches x 3 - 4 inches. You'll need about 80
cloth strips per pair of flip-flops. Tie the strips onto the top of the flip-flop - covering the whole top part. Really fun
and the kids love them! For complete directions Funky Flip Flops - Party Activity, Craft and Favor
Beach Ball Exchange
Buy enough blow-up beach balls for every guest. Blow them up and let kids autograph each others with permanent markers. Fun activity while presents are being opened or kids are eating.
