7 Gender-Neutral Kids Birthday Party Themes We Love

Birthday parties are a lot of work. From planning to decorating, there are a lot of details to keep in mind. And not to mention the food and drinks!

But if you’re looking for some inspiration on how to throw an awesome birthday party for your kids, you’re in the right place!

These gender-neutral kids party ideas are themes all kids love, making it easy for you to reuse decorations for another child next year (yes, please!) or do a joint birthday party with a boy and girl.


1. Party Animals Theme

Bring the zoo home with a fun animal-themed party. Think giraffes, zebras, elephants, and tigers, or any wild animals your kids love. Decorate with green streamers and large green leaves for a look deep within the jungle!

Aaaand party animals love to jump around, so consider adding a bounce house to your jungle party, complete with our wild animal hoppers: The Nelman and The Elle.


2. Farm Theme

What kid doesn’t love a barnyard bash? Enjoy all the fun of a farm party–without any of the smells! Serve on-theme snacks like pigs in a blanket and rice krispie “haybales” with flavored milks.

Plus, get all the kids jumping with our cow hoppers–The Clarabelle and The Gertie!

3. Happy Camper Theme

Throw a cheerful camping party for your little one, complete with tents and s’mores! Get outdoorsy in your backyard, or bring it inside by decorating with fake trees, logs, and tents. You can do fun camping activities like a scavenger hunt, collecting “sticks,” and more!



4. Space Mission Theme

Throw an out-of-this-world party with a space themed birthday party! You can easily customize your party’s name by adding your child’s age to the mission number (i.e. Jacob’s Space Mission 5 or Josie’s Space Mission 3). You can even incorporate Buzz Lightyear figurines and decorations to this party.

Our soft playland The Moon & Back is a perfect addition to this space-tacular birthday.


5. Carnival Party Theme

Have a child who loves the circus? Bring back memories of the fair with bright red and yellow decorations, and yummy treats like corndogs, lemonade, and cotton candy. You can also include super-simple carnival games like ring toss or pick-a-duck.

Book our Bubble House for extra carnival fun!


6. Pajama Party Theme

We love this party idea can be as simple or elaborate as you want it! Invite kids to wear their PJs to your party, or purchase matching PJ sets for the whole crew. This is a great party for the morning hours, and you can create a fun pancake station with whipped topping, sprinkles, fruit loops, and so much more.


7. Art Party Theme

Unleash your inner artists with an art-themed birthday party! Set up painting and coloring stations, or get creative making crafts as a group. Your activity also doubles as a take-home favor for the kids.


FAQ


What does gender-neutral mean for a kids’ birthday party?
