Jungle Safari Kids Birthday Party Themes

Safaris are a unique look at wildlife and animals in their natural habitat and often called the adventure of a life time. Because animals are loved by children and they are so easy to find everywhere, a Jungle Animal Safari is a terrific party idea.

Follow thest 6 simple steps to throw a fabulous jungle safari birthday party theme for your kids.

Step 1

Create a Jungle atmosphere by hanging vines and jungle decorations from the ceiling or off branches out in the backyard. Use some animal print decorations to add a sense of wild adventure to any party venue. Visit your favorite party supply store and load up on the wide variety of Jungle Safari supplies. From Safari plates and napkins to vinyl inflatable jungle animals.

Step 2

You can adapt just about any game to fit your jungle theme. Instead of pin the tail on the donkey, make it pin the tail on the monkey. Musical chairs with jungle music or kids taking turn drumming. Hide little jungle animals throughout your yard or your party venue. And lead the kids on a wild safari adventure to discover all sorts of hidden animals for them to keep. Don’t forget to get some little plush monkeys or birds that you can hide in the branches or in high places. Make sure that there is enough loot for everyone present. Safari or animal Hats are great fun to distribute as the kids first arrive to the party or for them to take home just before they leave.

Older kids like to think of themeselves as cool and very independent. Kids from 10 to 12 usually have an opinon on what kind of party they want. Make sure that you plan with them all activities of the party, as they will be more inclined to participate. Make sure that you have enough adult supervision for all age groups and limit your party to a particular area of your home.

Step 3

Each child can choose a different animal hat. They can attempt to draw or color that animal, and then have them take turns and act out the animal they have chosen. Go wild with the animal sounds. Start out having all the kids make simple animal sounds all together, like a chicken or a dog. That would usually bring them out of their shell. Then move on to the jungle animal sounds.

Step 4

There are plenty of Jump houses to rent that carry a jungle theme. A simple search for a safari jumper, safari jump houses, jungle bounce house or any related term would lead you to a local party rental company.

Step 5

There is a wide variety of Jungle Music and sound backgrounds widely available on the Internet as well. A Lion King Music track can be looped for great musical adventure. You can have the music in the background while playing games with the kids or during lunch or snack time.
