A perfect boy birthday party, but can be tweaked to be girl friendly as well. Cowgirls like to have fun too.

Perfect for a little cowboy's first birthday or an older child. Great for any age.

Round up the cowpokes and let's have a rip roaring fun time with all these rip snorting Cowboy Birthday Party ideas!

Cowboy Birthday Party Ideas For Invitations

Take a picture of your little cowboy. Glue onto paper that looks like a red bandanna. Cut to fit a card. Glue twine around the edge to look like rope.

Handwrite or print inside...

"Howdy Partner!(Your child's name)is having a Shin-Dig.
He sure would be tickled if you could mosey on by.
We'll have a grand 'ol time.
Meet us at the old barn (your address) at (time of party) for some foot stomping rip-roaring fun."

Cowboy Birthday Party Ideas For Costumes

You'll want cowboy hats, bandannas tied around their necks, vests, boots, and gun belts with squirt guns.

I know some parents don't want their kids to play with weapons of any kind. I get that. It's totally your call.

Cowboy Birthday Party Ideas For Decorations And Centerpieces

Tie balloons on the mailbox. Have bales of hay sitting by the mailbox, and on the porch.

Place a saddle on one of them.

You can purchase paper that looks like wood and make the door look old. Or red to look like a barn.

Have old tools leaning up against the house.

Set up a table with Cowboy Coloring Page to keep the little cowboys and cowgirls busy until all the guests arrive.

Most people have this cowboy birthday party outside or in a big area like a gym. But you can also have it in the house.

The hay is very messy though. Hay bales are great decorations for the Cowboy Party. You can place randomly around the party area.

Your colors are red, white, and brown.

Group balloons in 3's. Tie them on the backs of chairs.

I would use a red and white checkered tablecloth. Have galvanized buckets with peanuts sitting here and there.

For your cowboy centerpiece you can use cowboy boots with a hat propped up on them. Or start with this Cowboy Centerpiece and add to it.

Hang red and white curly ribbon, and small cowboy hats from the chandelier. Wind twine down and around.

If it's outside, then you can go hog wild. Build a jail out of a big box, have picnic tables, hay bales everywhere, horse trough, and barrels.

Cowboy Party supplies make the decorating that much easier. Use quart jars for drinking out of. Or take a look at these Western Boot Cups . They are really neat.

Cowboy Birthday Party Ideas For Games

Purchase stick horses. Have races with them. Give plenty of prizes.

Pan for Gold

Fill a small swimming pool with sand. Hide gold coins in it. Give each child a chance to pan for gold with a pan that has holes in it. The holes allow the sand to go through.

Pin the Tail on the Donkey

This is still one of the most favorite games at parties. I'm guessing you know how to play. You can use another animal, but for the Cowboy Party the donkey is great.

Shoot Out

Line up empty coke bottles. Let kids shoot with their squirt guns.

Round Up

Give the kids ropes. Let them try to rope objects. You can use chairs.

"Cowboy Cactus 19"" Pull-String Pinata"

Fill with candy or small toys for a fabulous fun time.

Cowboy Birthday Party Cake Ideas

Frost a cake to look like a stream is running through the middle. Frost the rest green.

You can tint coconut to look like grass. Have plastic cows grazing here and there.

Or take a look at this fabulous farm cake. It is so hilarious. Everyone will absolutely love it, and it is so easy to create.

Cowboy Birthday Party Food and Drink Ideas

• Chili in a big black pot
• Cornbread
• Potato salad
• Corn on the cob
• Cookies cut in the shape of cowboy hats

Drinks

• Sweet iced tea
• Fresh squeezed lemonade
• Virgil's Rootbeer

Virgil's is great stuff if you can find it. It's relatively healthy. You can purchase it in bottles or a keg. Serve on ice in galvanized buckets if you buy bottles.

Serve other drinks in quart jars.

Cowboy Birthday Party Favor Ideas

Purchase brown lunch bags. Fill with toy horses, popper guns, tobacco gum, horse shoe keychain, and a thank you note.

Fold over and punch two holes in the top. Run a red and white checked ribbon through and tie.
