7 Outdoor Birthday Ideas for Socially Distanced Parties in NYC
Searching for outdoor birthday party ideas? You’re in the right place!
Due to COVID-19, some NYC parents are planning outdoor birthday parties with activities that are done from a safe social distance (and with masks and plenty of hand sanitizer, of course!)
As a professional children’s magician, I’ve helped a lot of parents plan socially distant birthdays that are safe, interactive and tons of fun.
Read on for 7 outdoor activities ideas that will leave your child thanking you for “the most fun party ever!”
Festive Field Day
Bring the joy of field day right to your child’s outdoor birthday party.
Potato sack races, a pinata and parachute games are just a few socially distant activities that lead to guaranteed-giggles, laughter and happy memories!
Boisterous Bubble Fest
Tell the children they need to pop as many bubbles as they can while the music is playing. When the music stops, they stop!
There are an endless number of bubble games and activities, but one thing’s for certain: bubbles + kids = boisterous birthday fun!
Sensational Scavenger Hunt
Unleash creativity and festive birthday cheer with an age-specific hunt!
Be ready for photo opportunities galore as the kids follow clues, discover secret messages, open prizes, and/or assemble a puzzle (maybe the completed puzzle is a picture of the guest of honor with his/her friends?).
Delightful Decorating
Decorating cookies or cupcakes is a delightfully delicious way to celebrate!
First, invite guests to meet in the backyard or at an outdoor table.
When they arrive, give each child their own icing, sprinkles and toppings.
Finally, everyone sings Happy Birthday and enjoys their sweet treat!
Cool Carnival Games
Step right up and join the fun!
Some carnival games that can be played when maintaining social distance include the tire toss, jumbo inflatable bowling, balloon shaving, and the bean bag toss. At the end, the kids trade in their tickets at the prize table!
Stimulating Science Experiments
Fizz, bubble, pop!
Create an outdoor ‘science lab’ where guests conduct cool science experiments while maintaining safe social distance.
