You can state in the invitations that you would like your guests to come dressed as their favorite Disney character. There are hundreds of characters for your guests to choose from, so they will each be able to pick out the perfect costume for your child’s party. When hosting any themed birthday party, it is always nice to have at least one game or craft project planned for your young guests to do. A quick and easy game could be “Pin the Ears on Mickey”. You can also play Mickey's favorite game using shapes, numbers and colors. Before the party, make several large, colored paper shapes or numbers. Then, make sure you have a duplicate of each shape you cut. Place the shapes around the party area. When it's time to play, you hold up a shape of a purple flower, for instance, and say "I spot a purple flower...do you?" the kids will run to the image which matches the one you are holding. You can play this several times, even repeating the same image. You can use blue stars, pink hearts or yellow circles. The children will love it! Here’s a tip: for more challenging play, add shapes with stripes, dots etc. These fun children’s birthday party ideas are sure to be a hit without breaking the bank. Having a fun Mickey Mouse themed party will leave your young guests dreaming of “Meeska, Mooska, Mickey Mouse!”
