Here is a list of Themed Birthday Ideas I have done in the past.

1. Spider-man

The first themed birthday party I did for my first born was spider-man  This was only the beginning! I made a spider-man pinata. My son wore a spider-man costume and we even made a large spider web connected to our ceiling with balloons. I was so amateur about how to make a party look good! I did use a lot of  solid reds and blacks to go with the theme. I even built New York out of cardboard! See How to Make a Spider-man Pinata.

2. Disney Cars

There is so much Disney Cars products out there but you can find some really good deals now on the first cars items plus use solid colors to accent the party. I built a Lightning McQueen pinata out of cardboard and it was so strong, I used for Cars 2 birthday party about 2 yrs later! Make Route 66 Invitations. Fill handmade Piston Cups with your treats. Use black mini donuts circles as tires!

3. Blue’s Clues

I had found so much Blue’s Clues items on clearance at a local party store and made a Blue’s Pinata out of cardboard. We enjoyed making tons of spots and footprints.

4. Transformers

I did 2 Transformers parties both of which had to be inside because middle of winter. I made a Autobot on the carport using black masking tape. I made an Autobot Pinata one side red and the other side blue. My sister created a Pyramid cake and we used some of the Transformers figurines as cake toppers. I made large letters to spell out
