Polka Dot Birthday Party Invitations

If you are going to be making homemade polka dot invitations, just get to cutting circles out of paper that matches your polka dot color scheme. Or use a hole punch for small circles. Add them to a plain colored premade card or make your own plain card and embellish it anyway you like.

Use bottle lids, small saucers, or coins to trace out your dots. Then just cut them out for the perfect circle. Die cut machines are great for this as well.

Or just purchase scrapbook paper with polka dots on them. Print your party info on the white side. Fold it up half way. Then fold the top down over the folded bottom and secure with a circle sticker.

Polka Dot Birthday Party Costumes

Costumes for this theme are so easy. Just have the kids wear clothes with polka dots on them. Or you can cut out circles from craft felt and secure to each child with safety pins.

Another fun idea is to buy white t-shirts and fabric paint. Let the kids make polka dotted shirts to wear. This doubles as one of the craft projects and can be a favor for the kids to take with them.

Polka Dot Birthday Party Decorations

Decorations for this theme are all about dots, dots, dots! Place circles everywhere.

You're color scheme for this party theme depends on what party supplies you are going with. Just about any color scheme will work, from primary dots to pastels. Be sure and stay with that color scheme throughout your party decorating.

Hang round paper lanterns from the ceiling with fishing wire. Make them different lengths for fun.

Make large polka dots out of poster boards. Secure to the wall with poster putty.

If you want a little more dimension to your dots, use Styrofoam balls cut in half. Spray paint them and secure them to the walls.

For a birthday banner, cut out circles about 6-8 inches. Write a H on one, then an A, then a P, and so on until you spell out Happy Birthday. Hot glue your circles onto ribbon and string above the main table or on the front of your table.

Polka dot party plates are a great way to bring in your theme. Or just use solid plates in the colors of your color scheme. You can stick them on the walls for a fun polka dot effect as well. Another fun way to bring in the polka dot theme on your plain party supplies is to use circle stickers.

Balloons are a very inexpensive way to bring in color to any birthday party. And they are perfect for this theme because they are dots! Tie them onto a balloon weight and group them around the room. You can also let some of the balloons float on the ceiling with curling ribbon hanging down from them.

Polka Dot Birthday Party Centerpiece Ideas

Colorful Jars of Candy

Fill clear jars with round candy. Set on the table as your centerpiece as is, or you can add large circle lollipops. Simply stick them down into the candy.

Flower Pot With Dots

Make clay pots pretty with paint. Paint circles on the pots in your colors. You can add sand or beans to the pots and then add large lollipops as in the centerpiece above. Or add pretty flowers.

Styrofoam Balls

Spray paint Styrofoam balls and stick on the end of straws or dowel rods. Place your dots in vases or any other fun containers.

Polka Dot Pails

Purchase fun metal pails and add circle stickers to them. Add a polka dot bow to the handle. Fill with candy or flowers for a fun idea.

Elegant Polka Dot Topiary

For a more elegant look, make or purchase a flower topiary. Add a pretty polka dot ribbon to the stem and you have a perfect centerpiece.

Polka Dot Faux Cake

I love to make these for any party or holiday. You'll find instructions on this fun idea here. You don't have to cover it with rose petals. Use paint, stickers, fabric, or ribbon to create the perfect look for your party. I like to stack them as well. Then it really looks like a cake. Go smaller and smaller as you go up and then add a fabulous topper on top.

Polka Dot Birthday Party Games

Pin the Dot On The ________

You can add anything in the blank. Just make a large poster board of your object. And then play just like "Pin the Tail on the Donkey". Some ideas would be...

  • Pin the Dot on the Dog
  • Pin the Dot on the Horse
  • Pin the Large Sprinkle on the Cupcake
  • Pin the Circle on the Flower (the dot can be the center of the flower)
  • Pin the Dot on the Present

Just use your imagination and come up with something that your child loves.

Design Your Own Balls

This is a fun activity for older kids. They can add dots to the balls or anything else they want. And then they can play with them. So much fun!

Design Your Own Umbrellas

Design Your Own umbrellas are white nylon with plastic knobs that cover any points to make them extra kid-friendly. Umbrellas open to 30 1/2" and are ready for kids to paint and color them with polka dots. Umbrellas are perfect for rainy day kids' craft projects or springtime party activities.

Twister

This is a fun game for older kids. And the dots are a perfect match for this party.

Polka Dot Birthday Party Cake Ideas

For your cake you can simply add dots to any cake with icing or fondant. Or serve cupcakes with sprinkles in your colors.

For a fun topper you'll need some wire and some Styrofoam balls. Paint the balls, let them dry, and place one end of the wire in the ball. Curve the wire and place the other end in the top of the cake. Add as many as you'd like.
