10 Successful Child's Birthday Party Ideas on A Very Small Budget

No need to go broke to organize a beautiful birthday party for your sweetheart!
All you need is a little ingenuity, a touch of creativity and you’re done!

Our ideas for a “wow” birthday party at a mini price

1- Free and hot birthday invitations

You can find free ones on the net, you just have to print them (with the office photocopier). And if there isn’t the one with the birthday theme, by typing on Google invitation “no birthday theme”, you’ll find it for sure!

2- Balloons everywhere as decoration

Balloons are a great effect! So we inflate lots of balloons that we tie in clusters of 3 with gift ribbon and we put them everywhere: on window handles, on radiators, on doors, in the corners of the high room tied with adhesive tape, and obviously on the front door and on the gate of the house

If there is a birthday theme, we buy bags of balloons in the color of the theme (pink balloons for princess birthday, yellow balloons for Minions birthday, black balloons for Pirate birthday, etc.).

3- White cardboard plates and glasses to customize

Plates, glasses and napkins in the theme of their favorite heroes cost much much more than their white counterparts, for a limited use after all!

So we take the first price models in white (but in cardboard and not plastic) and to make it “party”, we add stickers on the outline (avoid the middle that will receive the food) or masking tape!

We buy a pack of straws and place them in a large glass, it’s pretty and children love to drink from a straw!

4- A single decorative element gives the birthday theme

We choose a large element that takes up the theme of the birthday, such as the tablecloth, that is more than enough, especially at 4 years old!

5- Thanks to the internet community!

• A printer and internet and you are the queen of the world!
• Just type the birthday theme on Google then go to the images to find visuals so you can print in A4 (thanks to the office printer) and arrange as a placemat or decoration!
• Always by typing the theme on Google, you will also find free resources offered by nice bloggers such as the resources for a Snow Queen birthday offered by  cestmamanquilafait.com .

For the little ones, you can also print birthday-themed coloring pages to offer them for a little quiet time! Once again, simply click on “coloring + chosen theme”.

6- Multicolored drinks!

No need to ruin yourself with sodas and other fruit drinks, which are also super sweet, buy some syrups and the children will be very happy! 
With grenadine or strawberry for the red, with peach (there is even an “Ice tea” flavored syrup) for the orange, with apple…
To look pretty, you can prepare 2 or 3 transparent carafes filled with syrup (ask your girlfriends to lend you some if you only have one!) in which we add fruit.

You can also have fun making ice cubes with a little syrup. Children love ice cubes, so if they are also colorful and too good, success is guaranteed!

7- A “beautiful” cake

A successful birthday cake for children is a cake that is beautiful!!! Afterwards, if it’s very good, so much the better, but you don’t need to do too much in the kitchen!

8- Lots of sweets

At birthday parties, children wait for candy first! 

On the other hand, if you don’t want to be out of stock 10 minutes after the start of the party, make the candies gradually available to the children! Because as soon as a bowl of candy arrives, 10 little hands have already pilfered everything!

Not bad too, the popcorn which is not expensive and is very popular!

9- Funny games

No need there again to spend money on buying games for the birthday Angling is not essential either.
We offer you tons of games that do not require anything to buy and that will really amuse them.

10- Small gifts for the guests

Children do not intend to leave empty-handed!
We then slip candies into a sheet of paper that we have rolled up like a bag of popcorn and they are enchanted!
