3rd Birthday Party with Bubbles

Throw a fun-filled bubble party for the carefree boy or girl who loves to play outside. Bubble parties make for a fantastic 3rd birthday party theme for boys or girls, and have the added plus of a built-in activity. Gather your ideas and bubble party supplies, and then sit down to organize your invitations, decorations, activities, the menu, the cake, and party favors.

Plan the details of the celebration with these 3rd birthday party ideas:

• Invitations: Make your guest list, and get ready to send out bubble party invitations to all of the little kids. Include information such as the name of the event, name of the guest of honor, date, time, and location of the party. Create your event on Punchbowl and peruse through a variety of free birthday invitation options. Select your favorite design or one that best fits the bubble party theme and personality of the birthday boy or girl.

• Decorations: Decorate the bubble birthday party with bubble party decorations. Incorporate the colors of the rainbow and add loads of birthday balloons and accessories to stage a festive affair. Rent bubble machines and set them up around the party space to have a constant stream of bubbles in the air.

• Activities: For a fun 3rd birthday party activity, set up a creation station and let kids make their own bubble wands with straws, pipe cleaners, flexible coat hangers, and whatever else you can find around the house. In addition, fill buckets with bubble wands and let the kids go crazy. For a bubble party game, hand out pieces of bubble gum and have a contest to see who can blow the biggest bubble.

• Menu: Plan a delicious and fun menu for the bubbles birthday party. Food can also be fun when you’re thinking bubbles. Start with bubble party ideas for food such as sparkling apple cider and continue with kid-friendly food cut in the shapes of circles. Serve colorful jello jigglers, finger sandwiches, red and green grapes, carrot and cucumber chips, and grape tomatoes.

• Cake: Serve cupcakes in place of a birthday cake to keep things bubbly. Top the cupcakes with creamy white icing and pastel confetti. For another option, serve cake balls with frosting on the inside and cake on the outside. Bake the bubble birthday dessert yourself, or buy it from your local bakery.

• Favors: Hand out bubble party favors at the conclusion of the birthday party. Consider ideas such as No-Spill Bubble Tumblers, Bubble Squeeze toys, or Bubble Trumpets. For a simple option, pass out bottles of bubbles, personalize with each child’s name.

Have a blast at the bubble party, and don’t forget to take pictures as a way to cherish the wonderful moments and memories.
