If you are overwhelmed with all the possible options, here are the top 7 entertainment ideas that you can choose from, depending on what your kid likes, there is something for everyone on this list.

Animal Zoo Parties

If your child loves animals, the best thing that you can do for their birthday is making an animal zoo party. There are a lot of places that will come to your party with animals and teach the kids how to interact with them safely. They can pet rabbits, hold hens or even meet snakes and lizards if they like reptiles.

The Glam Squad

For those who have girls or boys who like to go to beauty salons and put on makeup or paint their nails, why not take them and a couple of their closest friends to a real beauty salon? Let them get their nails painted, get their hair done and feel cute. Just make sure that the parents know and are fine with whatever you have chosen.

Karaoke Parties

If your child loves to sing and dance, why not throw them a karaoke party. You can rent karaoke booths or even purchase ones, depending on your budget. If that is not something that you want to do because of your neighbours, karaoke bars usually let you rent out the space for a birthday party, even when it's a kid's one. Let them sing their little hearts out and eat some snacks.

Face Painting and Glitter Tattoos

No matter if you have a boy or a girl, face painters are always a hit. All the kids will be thrilled to have a spiderman, flowers or animals on their faces. Most professional face painting in Melbourne or around Australia will also offer glitter tattoos in their services. They are great for those kids who can't sit still long enough for a full-face paint but want to have a little something on them.

Outdoor Cinema

If you have older kids, there is nothing that will be cooler than having an outdoor cinema party. You can either rent out or purchase a home projector and hang a sheet in the backyard for all the kids to enjoy a movie. If you want to go all out you can get them an inflatable projector screen. It is one of the best party ideas if you have a birthday during the warmer months. All you need are chairs, blankets and a bunch of pillows they can use outside. But make sure that you have all the movie snacks and drinks because no movie night is complete without those. Most importantly, make sure that you are choosing an age-appropriate movie and that you check if any of the kids have light sensitivities.

Fairy Parties

If you have a fairy lover, there is nothing better than a fairy birthday party. Make them their own fairy garden party. You can all dress up as their favourite fairies and do some fairy crafts such as making their own wands, wings or crowns. You can incorporate little scavenger hunts. Lay down coloured pebbles, and some cute ornaments that they can follow to find cute prizes. You can also hire an entertainer to come as a fairy and do some fun activities with them to make the party even more special.

Rent Some Bouncy Castles

What is better than giving kids a place where they can burn off all of their energy? There are so many different companies that rent out bouncy castles. They will come set them up in your yard and pack them up once the party is over. But if you are doing this, always make sure that you are choosing age-appropriate ones as well as having parents supervise the kids at all times.

We all know that kids' parties are always fun, and you should always have one birthday as a kid that you will remember forever. Choose something that is special to your kid and make the most out of their special day. But at the end of the day, you don't have to spend thousands of dollars just to make their day special, doing something that means a lot to them will do the trick.
