Show moreThe easiest kids parties start with one thing: a theme your child is excited about. Here's how we'd plan the rest, after more than 3 million orders.
Start with a theme or character. Pick the character or idea your child asks for most, from Paw Patrol and Bluey to dinosaurs and unicorns. Once the theme is set, everything else matches it. Not sure yet? Browse kids party themes for the full list.
What to buy. Cover four things and you've a proper party: tableware (plates, cups and napkins), decorations (a banner, some bunting and balloons), party bags for the way home, and a game or two. Most themes here have all four in matching designs, so you can shop the look in one go.
Think about age. For toddlers and first birthdays, keep it simple with soft colours, teddies and a short guest list. School-age children love a strong character theme and a few games. Older kids often prefer gaming, football or a pamper party over cartoon characters, so follow their lead.
Party bags and games. Fill goody bags with pocket money toys, a few sweets and a small novelty each. For entertainment, classics like pass-the-parcel, musical statues and pin-the-tail cost almost nothing and always work.
How much per child. As a rough guide, allow a plate, cup and napkin plus a filled party bag per guest, then a shared set of decorations for the room. Buying tableware in packs of the same theme keeps the cost down and the table tidy.
If the big day is nearly here, order by 4pm and next-day delivery will usually save you.
A: It's party products built around the characters and themes children love, from Bluey, Peppa Pig and Paw Patrol to Stitch, Frozen, Barbie, Harry Potter and more. Each theme covers the main pieces you need for a party, such as balloons, tableware, decorations and party bags.
A: Start with your child's favourite character or show, then browse that theme to see everything designed to match. If they don't have one clear favourite, our Kids Party Themes section groups everything by idea so you can pick a look you like.
A: Most items are sold individually or in packs, so you build the party yourself by adding the pieces you want. That way you can buy just balloons and plates, or go all in with decorations, cups and party bags to match.
A: We stock licensed themes including Bluey, Peppa Pig, Paw Patrol, Stitch, Disney Frozen, Gaming and Minecraft, Harry Potter, Trolls, Toy Story, Minnie Mouse, Barbie, Disney Princess and Pirate.
A: Foil helium balloons range from smaller shaped and orbz styles around 38-46cm up to giant versions over 80cm, so you can pick a size to suit the space and the budget.
A: Many themes use paper tableware, with plates around 23cm and cups around 200ml. Pack sizes vary by item, for example plates in packs of 8, cups in packs of 8 and cupcake cases in larger packs, so check the pack count on each product before you buy.
A: Depending on the theme you'll find items like hanging swirl decorations, banners and balloons. Pieces such as swirls often come in packs, for example packs of 6, so you can spread them around the room.
A: They're made for children's birthday parties, where matching everything to one character pulls the whole room together. They also work well for themed playdates, class celebrations and character sleepovers.
A: Pick a theme, then take a plate, cup, napkin and balloon from it as your base, and add a banner or hanging decorations for the wall. Buying the pieces from the same theme means the colours and characters line up without any guesswork.
A: Yes, and it often stretches the look further. Pair character plates and balloons with plain-colour cups, napkins and tablecovers that pick out one shade from the character artwork.
A: The helium foil balloons are designed to float when filled with helium, which you buy separately. Some larger air-fill styles are meant to be displayed on a wall or table rather than floating, so check the product name and description first.
A: Foil balloons hold helium far longer than latex and can stay up for days. Keep them out of direct heat and cold, and tie a balloon weight to the ribbon so they don't drift off or get trodden on.
A: Attach them to the ceiling or a high point and let them hang freely so they can spin. Spacing them a little apart stops them tangling and gives a fuller look across the room.
A: Party bag fillers, small toys and party items can include small parts, so keep them away from children under 3 and check the age guidance on each product. An adult should always supervise young children around party pieces.
A: Uninflated and broken balloons are a choking hazard for young children, so keep them out of reach and clear away any burst pieces straight away. Keep small children supervised while balloons are around.
A: Helium is only for filling balloons and must never be inhaled. Always follow the instructions supplied with your helium canister and keep it away from children.
A: Many of the paper plates, cups and napkins can be recycled where your local kerbside collection accepts clean paper and card. Foil balloons and plastic items are not recyclable through normal household collections, so bin those separately.
A: Choose paper tableware over plastic where you can, and keep foil balloons for display so they last across more than one party. Buying only the pack sizes you need also helps avoid leftovers going to waste.
A: Look at our Party Bags range for loot bags, tote bags, fillers and small toys to send guests home with. Many kids themes include their own character bags so you can match those to the rest of the table.
A: For the helium foil balloons you'll need helium, which you can add from our Helium Gas canisters and packages. Pick up balloon weights and curling ribbon at the same time to finish the display.
A: For the cake, browse Party Accessories for birthday candles and cake sparkles. Personalised banners are worth a look too if you want the child's name and age on the wall.
