It’s easy to see why children love the princesses Elsa and Anna, and winter characters like Olaf the snowman and Sven the reindeer.

Cookie Decorating Birthday Party

For December birthdays that are before Christmas, cookie decorating activities are super fun ideas for a winter birthday party. It’s OK to add a little Christmas spirit to a birthday party during this month. Gingerbread and sugar cookies are classic cookies that are perfect for kids to decorate during the holidays. You could bake your own cookies with fun cookie cutters or simply pick up gingerbread decorating kits and premade sugar cookies. Grab plenty of sprinkles, squeeze icing tubes, and edible sugar decorations to give the kids lots of creative freedom! You’ll also want to get some yummy cookie-themed decorations and table centerpieces. 

Snowflake Ball Party

A glamorous snowflake ball is a perfect winter-theme birthday party idea for older children. Deck out your house with snowflake decorations or rent a large space that will provide plenty of room for dancing. Hang sparkling garland and shimmering snowflakes, and set your tables with snowflake-themed tableware. Ask your guests to wear fancy ball attire for dancing the night away. Serve winter comfort foods like warm appetizers, stews, and cookies for dessert. Eggnog (spiked for adults, and alcohol-free for children) and other winter-themed concoctions are good drink ideas. This winter birthday party theme is also great for sweet 16s and quinceaneras. 

Ice Skating Birthday

One of our favorite winter birthday party ideas is to rent out an ice-skating rink for your party! The rink will already have all the skates your guests need to glide around the rink, so you’ll just need to bring some cake, a music playlist, and bright birthday decorations to hang around the rink. At one point during the party, it might also be fun to give each of your guests a helium balloon so the rink is filled with festive floating balloons to celebrate the birthday guest of honor. For guests who don’t know how to ice skate, the rink might also be able to give short skating lessons so everyone can join in the fun.

Sledding Birthday Party

Another one of our winter-theme birthday party ideas that features the outdoors is a sledding party. This theme works best for people who live in cold regions that see plenty of snow during the winter. In northern areas, almost all kids have their own sled or snow tube, so ask them to bring them and prepare to spend some time outdoors. You’ll need to find a sled hill, and if possible, a place for everyone to escape the cold inside for a bit while serving food and opening gifts. If an indoor space isn’t available, consider renting outdoor heaters. Serve hot food and drinks like chili, hot cocoa, warm apple cider, and hot toddies for the adults. 

Indoor Water Park

Winter can be long in some regions, which means plenty of snow and cold. Everybody could use a break from the cold in winter, and a party at an indoor waterpark is a great winter birthday party idea. Instead of winter decorations, go completely opposite with luau decor and summer party supplies. Kids and adults will have a blast all day long riding the slides and relaxing poolside. A party at an indoor water park can include lots of guests but is also an excellent option for a small or family birthday party. The joy of all the swimming fun is sure to be a cherished memory for the birthday guest of honor. 

Now that you’ve got plenty of winter birthday party ideas, it’s time to set a date, send out invitations, and start collecting your birthday party decorations and supplies. Birthdays only come once a year, so make this one special for someone you love! Shop the Ultimate Party Super Store for high-quality decor and supplies that will elevate your party to the next level.
