Planning a fun and creative at-home birthday party for your daughter or her friends? These ideas are perfect for girls ages 5–14 — from hands-on crafts and kids jewelry making to themed adventures and cozy nights in.
Here are a few of our favourites at a glance:
Those eight ideas are some of our most-loved party themes — and we’ve added two more creative picks below to round out the list!
1. Jewelry / Beading Party
A hands-on favourite where each guest designs a bracelet or necklace she’ll actually wear — not just take home. It’s creative, calm, and completely mess-free and stress-free for moms.
Gem Veranda’s kids jewelry making parties bring everything to you, making it easy to host a bracelet-making Vancouver celebration right at home.
2. Spa Party
Think nail polish, glitter lotions, and mini facials. Perfect for girls who love a little pampering and laughter with friends. Set up comfy chairs, soft towels, and pastel nail stations for a relaxing craft birthday experience.
3. Cupcake Decorating Party
For the bake-curious, let the kids go wild with frosting, sprinkles, and edible glitter. It’s colourful, creative, and doubles as dessert. Use aprons and themed toppings for extra fun — no special skills required.
4. Dress-Up Party
Pull out costumes, scarves, and accessories for a day of imagination and giggles. Add a mini “runway” or photo booth for keepsake photos moms will love.
5. Science Fun
Make magic with hands-on experiments! Try DIY slime, lava lamps, or fizzy volcanoes. A perfect way to blend learning with laughter, ideal for curious minds.
6. Movie Night
Turn your living room into a cozy mini-theatre with popcorn, fairy lights, and blankets. Choose a theme like “unicorn adventures” or “classic princess movies.” Kids love the relaxed, pajama-friendly setting.
7. Dance & Karaoke Party
Music, microphones, disco lights — and plenty of laughter. Whether it’s a dance-off or karaoke contest, this one burns off energy and makes memories. Perfect for tweens who love a lively atmosphere.
8. Nature Craft Party
Take the fun outdoors! Gather leaves, flowers, or twigs to make nature bracelets, fairy jars, or garden art. It’s creative, inexpensive, and connects perfectly with the idea of a craft birthday for curious minds.
9. Scavenger Hunt Party
Hide clues or small treasures around your home or backyard. Each clue can lead to a new surprise or activity — ideal for indoor or outdoor fun when you’re planning at home birthday party ideas that keep kids moving and excited.
Sleepover Party
Set up cozy blankets, fairy lights, and DIY snack trays for a magical night in. Add simple activities like making friendship bracelets, (a fun little preview of a Gem Veranda jewelry party!) a chick flick, or a midnight photo booth. It's a classic, creative birthday idea that keeps the fun going long after the cake is gone.
