Top 5 Fun Activities for a Successful Kids’ Birthday Party

A treasure hunt is a fun activity not only for the kids, but also for the adults who get to organize and host it. Riddles, puzzles, charades—anything works to help the kids uncover the treasure’s hiding spot. It’s a great way for them to burn off some energy while staying focused as they explore every corner of the garden.

And what’s the treasure?
When the kids finally find the treasure, it’s all worth it. Fill the chest with candy and small accessories (like scrunchies, hair clips, mini wallets...) so each child can take home a cute souvenir from this special day.

The piñata is a birthday classic. Kids love it it makes them laugh and lets them release all that birthday excitement. You can buy one ready-made or create your own with newspaper and balloons for a personalized version.

Our tip for an original piñata filling:
Along with the usual candy, add some PPMC goodies like scrunchies and barrettes, or even small toys, so kids leave with fun and lasting keepsakes.

This timeless party game needs little equipment, yet kids always join in with great excitement. Just place a few chairs in a circle, play their favorite songs, and let the fun begin! Depending on the number of children, this game can provide 20 minutes of laughter and music.

You probably have some old tin cans lying around—and they’re perfect for this fun birthday game!

Wrap the cans in newspaper and paint them in bright colors. Stack them into a pyramid, hand the kids a soft ball, and let them knock it down as many times as they want!

After all the excitement, it’s nearly time to say goodbye. A calm creative activity like drawing, painting, or simple crafts helps kids wind down as they wait for their parents.

Bonus: They can proudly give their handmade creation as a gift when they go home!
