Decoration Ideas
A party pack makes life SO much easier! This one includes 8 Shrek Invitations, 8 Shrek Dessert Plates, 16 Shrek Dessert/Beverage Napkins, 8 Shrek Hot/Cold Cups, 1 Shrek Tablecover, 8 Solid Color Red Spoons, 6 Solid Color Lime Green Solid Color Latex Balloons, 6 Solid Color Yellow Latex Solid Color Balloons and 6 Solid Color Red Latex Solid Color Balloons.
Different colored green streamers, balloons, Shrek, Donkey, and Princess Fiona balloons, party hats, and Shrek movie posters can add to great decorations for your birthday party.
Decorate your tables with green plastic tablecloths. Include Shrek tableware, napkins, and other Shrek-designed items to put on the table. Sticks, bugs (preferably plastic), and a very large Donkey as a centerpiece will help bring the Shrek theme to life for your guests!
Purchase different Shrek paraphernalia, such as shrek ears and teeth, shirts, hats, posters, and even video clips, and have them creatively displayed around the room. Using dry ice, roll the "smoke" from behind a life-sized Shrek cutout or doll, if possible.
Gift Ideas:
For a HUGE selection of gift ideas take a look at our Shrek gift ideas
Have the kids cut out their own Gingerbread Men, or even create their own Gingerbread Man cookies!
Using clay, have the kids create Shrek himself! Have a model on hand for them to look at - and use clay-friendly paint to help them paint their Shreks. Once they have completed their Shreks, bake them in the oven for about 10 minutes to dry the clay, and once cooled, the kids can take them home after the party!
Game Ideas:
2-6 yr olds
Shrek word scrambles! You will need to help the littlest guests, but this will be a great game of fun for your friends. The one who finished first (with or without help), wins!
Take the kids for a donkey ride - Shrek’s best friend! Give each child a Shrek hat so they can pretend to be Shrek, and then either rent a donkey for the afternoon, or take them to a donkey farm for a little fun (make sure you have their parents’ permission).
6-10 yr olds
Have your guests number a piece of paper from 1-10, and then ask them different questions about Shrek’s adventures. The one with the most answers right, wins!
Take your guests on their own Shrek adventure! Divide your guests into different characters - Shrek, Princess Fiona, Donkey, Lord Farquaad, etc. Then have them act out a scene taking Shrek on a new adventure with his new friends and even enemies!
Food Idea:
Kids love food! With too many activities and crafts, it may be difficult to incorporate too much food, but here is a fun, easy food idea to match with the theme of the party:
Gingerbread Man cookies! Have the kids decorate them as they cool, and then enjoy!
Incorporating just a few of these fun ideas will ensure your little guests have a fun time with Shrek and his friends!
