Circus Birthday Party Theme for Kids - Clown Birthday Party
You don't have to go to the Big Top to enjoy the circus for your birthday! Host this party right in your own yard. 

For easy party planning, order your Party Supplies on-line.
Primary colors will make the best color scheme for your Big Top Birthday Party! Then, use this party guide to plan your party games, decorations and activities. We're here to make party planning stress-free,
so you can actually enjoy your celebration!

This party should be very active and filled with fun. 
Just as expected for any carnival trip, the guests will go home with smiles and lots of prizes. I purchase assortment bags when I intend to give away several prizes at a low cost.

CIRCUS CLOWN PARTY INVITATIONS
Make pretend tickets on your computer or 
with cardstock paper.
"The Circus (or Carnival) is in town!"
Come celebrate _______'s Birthday....."

Decorating:
Use LOTS of balloons and streamers in primary colors.
One reader suggests hanging a Trapeze above the table. 
Using paper towel tubes and streamers. A stuffed monkey makes for a cute trapeze artist! Circus posters on the walls and front door. Place stuffed animals all around.

Circus or Carnival Birthday Party Games
Give each child a popcorn box at the beginning of the 
game time. They will be filled as they play.
If you really want to go "all out" decorate game stations 
with paint, butcher paper, streamers and balloons.

Mouse Holes
You'll need a cardboard box and three golf balls. 
Cut 3  "mouse holes" on the box. Use a piece of Tape to mark the starting point.
The children roll the balls and attempt to get them into the holes. I cut the holes in various sizes for different skill levels.

Lollipop Tree
You'll Need several small prizes, lollipops and a Styrofoam ball. With 3 different colored markers, place a dot on the end of each lollipop stick and insert them into the Styrofoam ball.
Place prizes into 3 corresponding lunch bags. Red for red dots, Blue for blue dots etc. The players pick one lollipop and collects a prize from the corresponding prize bag.

Tin Can "Shoot"
The children use water guns to knock down empty frozen juice cans. Cover the cans with construction paper 
and place them on a bench.

Fishing
Make fishing pole with a dowel, string, and clothes pin.
Place a "helper" behind a board or some other barrier to hide.
The children toss their fishing line over the divider and the helper clips a Prize onto their pole. Younger children Love this!

Any games will do. It's a carnival, have lots of fun
and helpers available!
Ring toss,  Bean bag Toss, Horse shoes, Lawn Bowling Hula Hoops, Obstacle course, Balloon Darts (older children only) Face painting, Water Balloon Toss, 
Relay races...
