Think “inside the box” this year – and gather paper boxes to create seats for your guests. Set up a movie in the backyard to watch a new movie or the birthday kiddos fave! Ditch the traditional cupcake and cake route and make individual servings for movie snacks for each kid and their box.

Have a budding chef to celebrate? Check out this awesome idea from weelicious.com with blank aprons to allow creativity come alive at your party. Set up a cupcake station to let guests and party goers decorate their own cupcake to make it personalized! This is a great way to let guests take home their apron and help with cooking tasks in their own homes as well.

There is no surprise 5 year olds are busy and on the move. Channel that movement into an obstacle course birthday party. Grab some pool noodles, 2x4 wooden beams, hula hoops, and streamers to create a one of a kind course. If you are feeling extra crafty, make your own ribbons or medals for kids after completion!

However you choose to celebrate, congrats! Take pictures and celebrate the journey that got you to this momentous day!
