Scrapbooking party! Take pictures of the party, activities and guests and print them up during the last activity. Have an area ready with scrap booking materials, scissors that cut designs, stickers, ribbons, paste, etc., add the pics you just printed, and give each guest their own page to design. At the end of the day, you'll have your child's birthday party scrapbook already completed!

My little brother's birthday is coming up very soon. He requested a Spiderman party. He is turning 7. hmmm What to do what to do? First off set a budget, theme, guestlist, invitations , place, time, decorations, entertainment, food, and supplies. I'm thinking of making 7 cupcakes, frosted blue and red then making a spiderweb design on it. Food = English muffin Peter Parker pizzas, and green goblin jello. Then I'll just put out some Dr. peppers and call it sandman's muddy drink.

For games I will let them watch spiderman movies, make up random games like pin the radioactive spider on peter parker. Let them squirt silly string at each other for a web fight . and decorations will include red and blue streamers, red and blue balloons and invitations will be on a piece of paper that says come on and swing on by to (child's name ) spiderman birthday bash. It will be decorated with spiderman stickers . use your imaginations to make the kids day more fun . kids use theirs all the time. Have fun!

Check out Gigi's House in Totowa, NJ. I had my daughter's party there this past summer and it was awesome! The kids had a blast and they also got great party favors.

Games list:

Balloon Challenge
We put challenges inside balloons and each team pops 3 balloons. Whoever finishes the challenges first wins a prize.
Examples
Pat your head and rub your tummy
Run around and shake everybody's hand one time
Sing Row Row Row Your Boat
Stand in a circle and everybody says the alphabet in order one by one until you get to Z
Put all your hands in the middle and shout 123 OH YEAH
Make a pyramid
Simon Says
Scavenger Hunt
Hide candy in random places outside and have the kids look for them. Whoever finds them gets to keep them
Karaoke
Toilet Paper Mummy
Pass the Parcel
Limbo
Musical Chairs
Spin the Bottle for Presents

My brother is having his birthday today, and I came up with this a few weeks ago, hope this helps even though the question was asked in 2007 and it is now 2008...so ya, I hope this will help any1 else who looks on this site =])

My sister is turning 7 today and I am in charge of games for her party tomorrow. She is having a monkey luau party! We are going to dress up stuffed monkeys, play limbo, and play a game where we cut up a piece of banana and bury it under TONS of whip cream, the first to eat the banana wins the game then we will take their picture with their faces covered in whip cream. When Molly is opening her presents we are playing a variation on spin the bottle. The people with the presents sit in a circle and then the birthday kid will spin the banana, in this case, and whoever she lands on is the person whose present she opens.

Find The M & M's. Instead of finding gum you find M & M's.

Good ideas, although the one person win thing doesn't work well for boys any more. Any all work together ideas?

I know a GREAT idea for a 7 year old girl's birthday party. If you're girl is a fan of princesses she'll love this idea:

You can name your little girl unofficial princess of whatever year it is. (Ex: Unofficial Princess of 2008) Let your princess choose what dress she would like to wear including a crown and maybe even a wand. You will also need to make a peice of paper with the princess' name on it. At any time during the party get everyone together in the living room or any other room. Have someone be the host of the princess campaign. Have the host introduce the candidates and what royal kingdom they each came from. Give the other princess candidates silly names such as Princess Galogagoof. In case the host needs to stall because the princess can't get into her gown.....see who will play along, and ask the people in the audience what kingdom they came from and what they like about their kingdom. When your princess is ready ask someone for the enevelope (best be a parent) Then the host will announce that your princess has won.

This party idea was LOTS of fun, and we let our older daughter be the host. She brought in many laughs. I hope you will use this idea or it will help you think of a similar one! :)

Some ideas to for a birthday that have proved successful at my house are jello eating contest with no hands, alphabet hunt (or you can use easy to read words)I used index cards made two copies of the alphabet each child got a letter to hunt for which were hidden around my house when they found their letter they traded for a peice of candy. I also enlisted my teenage daughter for help with this game where I covered boxes with construction paper she built a tower at the top of the stairs for the children to throw a soft ball and knock them down. The kids loved it and waited in line for their turn which gave me a minute to breath. Another game for children to release their pent up energy is balloon volley ball. String balloons across a hallway or a doorway have each side have a different color balloon the object of the game is to get your teams color balloon to the other side.

When I gave out invitations for my sons 7th birthday party I included "please bring a small stuffed animal to the party". When they arrive I will collect the animals fo a "guess which animal belongs to which child" guessing game. The children 4 or so at a time can sit with a child designated as the guesser with the task of matching the animals to the owner.

I have four children 2 boys, a girl, and a baby boy.Since my two oldest boys are so close in age, and like a lot of the same things, I am having a hard time trying to figure out what kind of Birthday party to have for my oldest, who will be turning 7 in a week. I know that it is short notice, since it kinda snuck up on us,w hile we were getting ready for school, so we will have to have it latter in the month. We usually do a big family blow out, but this year he wants to invite friends from school, and I want his party to be great. I have no idea what to do for his party! If anyone has some ideas please let me know!

DEFINITELY check out supertreasurehunt.com (from TKGames.com). It's a really cool treasure hunt game that you can do for a birthday party or any party, really. You enter your information on the website, then it puts everything into code, and you print out the pages. You put in 10 clues for places around your house/yard/neighborhood, and the system tells you exactly where to put what. It's hard to describe it, but definitely worth checking out. I would recommend this for kids ages 6+, though I understand the company is coming out with a pictorial version for littler kids. The difficulty of the clues you enter would make it harder or easier, since each word becomes a hyroglyph that must be "translated."

Anyhow, it's great fun. I've done it for a 7-year olds party and it was perfect.

for a seven year old I think that a good cake for them would be a if a girl it would be a butterfly, and for a boy it would be a poweranger/or a pirate. Well hope my ideas helped you think of stuff

Find the Gum:
2 adults hide 5 or more peices of bubble gum each hide it where you think the kids wont guess but dont hide it up high where kids cant reach it.

Only need 10 peices or more

The first person to find the MOST gum Wins

Request: Games or Ideas for Birthday Party for 7 Year Old

Archived on 12/06/2006

I am going to be having a birthday party for my daughter in November which she will be 7 years old. Does anyone know of any neat games to play or treasure hunt ideas any suggestions will help.

Lori

Answers:

Foam Art

A fun activity for children of that age is to take the foam packaging from meat (wash in soap and hot water so nice and clean) and using wax crayons, make a lovely picture. When the pictures are done they can be put into the oven for about 3 or 4 minutes - the foam shrinks up and makes a fun party favor. (10/21/2004)

Pirate Party

In "The Complete Tightwad Gazette" which is available at most libraries, they go into detail about a pirate party for children involving a treasure hunt, cake design, and party decorations including building a pirate ship with old sheet sails, paper pirate flag, and a ship's wheel made from scrap wood. They also had several activities, take home giifts, and a budget listing how much it cost (under $10). (10/23/2004)

Treasure Chest

I found cute small treasure chests to fill with candy pieces and quarters and we are going to hide them around the yard. Also, I found a talking Pinata for only $14.99. (05/10/2005)

Count The Jelly Beans

Fill a jar with jelly beans make sure you know how many are in there. When each child comes in ask the how many they think are in there then at the end reveal who got the nearest to the actual total. That person gets the whole jar of jelly beans. (08/22/2006)
