We’ve put together some useful tips and ideas to help you organise a kid’s tea party that’s fun, cheerful and one that would appeal to all age group.
The first step to planning any party is to choose a location. Are you planning on hosting your tea party at home or will you be opting for a lovely outdoor garden setting instead? Once you figure out where you want to have your party, then you can start thinking about a party theme.
Picking a theme is where the fun begins. A great tip to search for inspiration is to browse Pinterest boards for tea party decorations. This will give you more tea party ideas kids will just love. In that way you can figure out how the styles will go with your space, such as colours, seating arrangements, what party food for kids will match your theme and much more.
Here are some of our favourite ideas to get you started:
- Alice in Wonderland
- Princess or Fairy
- Victorian Tea Party
- Floral
- Rainbow
- Easter theme
Now that you have your space figured out, the next step is selecting the decorations for your party theme. There’s no need to go overboard with the decorations, just a few cute decorations hung throughout the space is everything you need to create a lovely tea party set up.
We have plenty of gorgeous bunting to choose from like our floral rose gold flag bunting or Gold Glitter Bunny Bunting, ideal for an Easter themed tea party. For an outside garden party, consider draping the bunting over the trees or perhaps hang our pretty fan decorations across your fence – either will look lovely!
With Spring fast approaching, adding a few Easter themed decorations could be a nice touch, like these adorable flower confetti balloons would look gorgeous at any floral tea party. Check out these bunny rabbit pom pom balloons are even better if you end up hosting a garden tea party.
However, if you’re after something a little more extravagant then our easy DIY balloon arches are ideal for a kid’s birthday party. There are many different colours to choose from which can be adapted to suit your theme. Don’t forget to add a few real flowers or pieces of foliage in for the ultimate set up!
The best food to serve at a kid’s tea party is of course, buffet style finger food. We’re talking sandwiches, small cheese and pineapple sticks, veg crudités and a variety of dips, fairy cakes and other small desserts. We recommend serving finger food as they’re fun and easy for kids to eat, plus it’s likely there is something for everyone – even the fussy eaters!
We understand that any food served at a kid’s party can get a little messy! Make sure you have plenty of disposable tableware, particularly napkins to hand. We recommend our rainbow pastel napkins or perhaps a selection from our ditsy floral range with the pretty in pink colour combination- perfect for a girly tea party.
No party is complete without having a few decorations to fill the room and just like the tableware, we’ve gone for bright shades. Don’t worry too much about sticking to one colour, the more colours involved the better your Mexicana theme will look. Let’s start with the brightest of the decorations, our multi-coloured fringe curtain. It’s the perfect way to add a pop of colour to your party and not only will this look gorgeous hanging up, but it also doubles as a photo booth backdrop too – win-win.
Pair these alongside our range of Mexican-style buntings for a true fiesta theme, choose from ‘Taco bout a party’ or ‘Fiesta Like There’s No Manana’ or both if you fancy going all out! Alternatively, if you’re keeping it simple or throwing a spontaneous summer party and don’t have much time, you could hang up our a few of our fun Mexican Fringe balloons. They’ll be sure to give your venue that wow factor whilst requiring very little preparation! Skip to step 7 to find out everything you need to know about making these yourselves.
If like us, you’re taking this theme very seriously. Then for a few fun touches why not pair these cactus balloons alongside the Llama and Cactus bunting for the most epic party set up? Try green glitter foiling and bright pom poms – trust us when we say these won’t go unnoticed. All of these decorations are easy and straightforward and require very little preparation – everything you want for a spontaneous summer party, right?
Now don’t get us wrong, we’re not saying a bar cart is the next party essential but it definitely adds a bit of something extra to your party and will look impressive in photos. Have fun spicing up your bar cart ready for your fiesta party but if you need a little inspiration, here’s how we decorated ours.
We’ve used our Llama and cactus bunting to hang along the bar cart, along with our Mexican style tableware to complete the look. You can serve any drinks you choose for your viva la fiesta bar cart; however, we’ve gone for Tequila to keep in with the theme. We’d love to know how you choose to decorate your Mexican themed bar cart, so let us know how it turns out!
