Coolest Ladybug Birthday Party

"Looking for coolest girls birthday party ideas?
We've got it ALL here!"

Are you thinking of planning a special party for your little girl's upcoming birthday? How about a ladybug birthday party? Those cute and adorable ladybugs will surely be a perfect theme for the celebration and you can even make your child the little princess ladybug of the day.

Invitations

Announce the party by sending out bright and charmingly irresistible invitations. Here are some ideas for those who are good at arts and crafts.

Cut out sturdy pieces of paper (in cardstock form) in the shape of a ladybug and make foldout wings. When opened, the wings will reveal the details of the party. Black yarn with the end knotted up can serve as antenna for the ladybug invitation. Each invitation need not be of the same color. Make them as colorful as real life ladybugs are! Oh, and don't forget the polka dots.

If you're all thumbs in arts but a computer whiz, there are several online sites that offer free online birthday card templates. Just choose the ladybug theme and see if you can tweak it to your heart's content. To make it more custom-made, you can try merging the design with the picture of the birthday celebrant. This also makes a memorable keepsake to be enjoyed for years to come.

Got a lot of free time? Make each invitation personalized by printing out the name of the guest directly onto the invitation instead of just writing them down.

In a rush and can't be bothered? Good news! Pretty LadyBugs: Oh So Sweet party invitations are available in sets of 8 (including envelopes). Even better news? They have a party supplies set that will provide you with the items necessary to set up a ladybug birthday party ranging from invitations to dining utensils (dining plates, cups, knives, forks, spoons, activity placemats, napkins and table cover), to balloons and confetti. They are available in Deluxe and Basic set. Now the only question that remains is how many do you need to order?

Ladybug Transformation

Transform the place where your ladybug birthday party will be held by decorating it with, what else? Ladybugs! A personalized birthday banner is a great way to welcome guests to your party. The banner is available in three sizes – the Standard Size (18" x 61"), Medium (24" x 80") and Large (30" x 100").

Birthday balloons are also a decor must. Try sprucing up regular balloons with small ladybug cut-outs. You can use a double-sided tape to attach them to the balloons. You may also put accents to the room by inflating "Oh So Sweet" mylar balloons.

An outstanding girls birthday party idea is to play dress up. Guests can come in their ladybug costume. However, only the birthday celebrant shall hold the honor of wielding the ladybug wand.

The guest's area: You can set up an area where guests can have their face painted with ladybug designs. Boys will be given Oh So Sweet cone hats while the girls get the ladybug tiaras. Distribute party blowouts to add to the ladybug bedlam.

Yum-time

If you are planning to bake your own cake, wouldn't it be nice to have it in the shape if a ladybug? It's possible if you have a ladybug cake pan. Though the ladybug shaped birthday cake is a slight detour from the usual round or rectangle cake shape, it is still utterly charming and utterly delicious.

Burgers and mini-hotdogs can get "buggified" by using the ladybug food picks. You can also use this as a cupcake decor if you are serving individual cupcakes to guests instead of the usual birthday cake.

Games

Enjoy a variation of the Pin the Tail on the Donkey by playing Land the Ladybug on the Flower. Instead of a tail, the contestants hold a ladybug cutout and they will attempt to "land" the ladybug right smack to the center of the picture of a flower. Closest one wins.

Have a stop-dance contest. Contestants dance to the jitterbug tunes and stops when the music does. Those left moving or dancing will be eliminated. Last one standing wins. You may also want to give a prize for the most energetic jitterbug.

Do an Easter egg hunt but instead of eggs, participants will look around the area for as many black dots as they can find. Some dots are special than others because they come marked with a special prize. Prizes for the ladybug birthday party games can be ladybug beanbags or other animal beanbags.

A final game of piñata is an excellent way to cap the day's activities. You can choose from an 18 inch traditional ladybug piñata that the participants can break open using a medium-sized stick or a ladybugs piñata with pull-string features. Both have hidden locations marked by a special sticker for you to put all the goodies in. Candies, chocolates, small tokens and coins are good piñata favors.

Favors

Before ending the celebration, be sure to send the guests home with favor bags (or boxes) filled with delightful goodies. A wonderful girls birthday party idea for a favor is the ladybug lipgloss keychain. Aside from this, you can also include ladybugs sticker sheets.

Want to go all out? There are two sets of favor boxes available online.

The ladybugs "Oh So Sweet" favor box includes a notepad, a sticker sheet, a blowout, a plush ladybug toy, a heart mirror and brush set and a box of four crayons. The ladybugs favor box comes in the distinct red with black dots design and includes a ladybug bean bag, ring, notepad, pen, blowout and a sticker sheet. Or if you prefer to come up with your own goodie bag, you can place all of the items in a decorative sack or box, perhaps covered in stickers. Cupcakes with ladybug designs are also great giveaways for your ladybug birthday party.
