Cowboy Decorating Ideas

  • Use red and white checkered tablecloths for your tables. You can use toy train as your decoration in the table and place the cake right in the center of the track.
  • Don’t forget balloons! Children would miss them. Use a combination of our Western themed balloons with our single color latex balloons.
  • Create some signs that say like Welcome Buckaroos, Park Your Horse Here, No Bandits allowed, and No Varmints! Hang the signs in all corners and spaces of the party.
  • Make a wanted poster for every child and provide them with fun alias, like Dastardly David, or what about One-Eyed William. Below the words Wanted For, you can add silly “crimes” such as robbing a bank, stealing candy and others. Hang the posters in all corners of the party area.

The type party that you will be having is extremely important, when it comes to choosing entertainment for the event.

For a causal birthday party, music that your guests can get up and dancing to may be the perfect form of entertainment. It is your choice if you would like to have music at your birthday party, as well as what type of music, it may be a good idea to tailor your selection to your birthday party.

Party games are another popular form of entertainment that may be ideal for your birthday party.
