Star Wars: Hoth Battle Party
We celebrated my little Star Wars fan’s fifth birthday with a Hoth Battle party! For the past couple years, my son has been all about Star Wars. Trips to Galaxy’s Edge have been highlights of Disney vacations, and visiting Darth Vader is now a beloved tradition. But in all the Star Wars galaxy, there’s one thing my little guy loves above all else – Imperial Walkers. His fascination with them began within the pages of his Star Wars board book, and then grew after coming face to face with his first AT-AT in Walt Disney World. Discovering my husband’s old N64 game (Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire) sealed the…

Lion Guard Birthday Party
Our little guy is officially four years old, so we threw him a safari birthday party themed to The Lion Guard! The Lion Guard is my son’s latest obsession. This Lion King spinoff series introduces Simba’s son, Kion, and his team of friends that form the Lion Guard.

Since my oldest passed on her love of SpongeBob to her younger siblings, I thought it would be fun to revisit the theme for my younger daughter’s 8th birthday party. Her SpongeBob birthday party featured DIY decorations, party games, and food and…

Star Wars Birthday Party
Our little Star Wars fan turned three, and we celebrated with a galactic birthday party! Watching our son meet Darth Vader at Walt Disney World inspired this Star Wars birthday party theme. Seeing him interact with the intimidating Sith lord and channel his own little dark side had me absolutely beaming. It’s my favorite memory from our trip! Due to much encouragement from me, Ezra has grown into a big fan of Darth Vader and the Galactic Empire. Don’t get me wrong, he loves the good guys too! But there’s just something so awesome about the bad guys of Star Wars, so that was the focus for his birthday party.…
