Celebrate Life with a Boho Butterfly Birthday Party
Each year it becomes more difficult to think up unique party ideas for your birthday girl that aren’t branded or copyrighted. A spring theme like boho butterfly birthday party will excite your young guests and provide inspiration for many ideas.
Butterfly Birthday Invitations
Butterfly Wings
Most party suppliers have small butterfly wings that the girls can wear over their shoulders. Tiaras and glittery gowns can also be encouraged to be worn.
Butterfly Birthday Food Ideas
Sandwiches can be cut into butterfly shapes. If you can’t find a butterfly shaped cookie cutter, you can cut one out of cardboard and use it to trace out a butterfly shape in cookie dough. Chicken butterfly wings would also be a fun addition to the table.
A butterfly birthday cake or butterfly cupcakes will be a fun way to present treats to your youngsters.
Setting Up Your Butterfly Conservatory
The butterfly theme can include pastel colors such light blue, yellow, pink, and mauve. A butterfly conservatory can be set up in your recreation room or outdoors. You can cut out butterflies and attach them to walls or trees and shrubs. Confetti can be sprinkled onto tables.
Larger butterfly centerpieces can be made for each table. The butterflies can be hot glued onto straws with a glue gun, and then arranged within vases. Real or fake flowers can be artfully arranged around the butterflies.
Butterfly shaped balloons can be purchased from most party or balloon suppliers, and can be filled with helium so they stay upright in the air. Tie down a large arrangement of balloons to the birthday girl’s chair.
Butterfly Party Games
No party is complete without butterfly party games. You can have children attempt to capture butterflies within their butterfly nets. The butterflies could be tossed in the air by an adult. The child that captures the most butterflies can be the winner of a special prize.
Butterfly tokens can also replace the counters in a game of butterfly bingo, or butterfly tic tac toe.
Children may be directed to run around the garden wearing their butterfly wings while you film a video of the butterflies in action. This video can be shared with the parents later.
Butterfly Craft Ideas
Children can be guided into making butterfly crafts to keep them occupied during the birthday party, and to also give them a break from running around trying to capture butterflies.
An adult can pre-cut out butterflies from construction paper, particularly important if you don’t want younger children using scissors. Children can decorate the butterfly cutouts with glitter glue, rhinestones, and sequins.
A boho butterfly birthday party is a unique party idea for little girls. There will be enough colorful glitter and sparkle to make your special birthday party girl shine for a day.
