Frog Birthday
Host a hopping good frog theme birthday party for kids
Leaping leapfrogs! If you're planning a frog birthday, then hop to it, because faster
than a dart frog, the big day will be here. Our goal is to make this birthday an un-frog-
getable party with inspiration for froggy themed cakes, food, favors and fun.
For this party, think lillypads, green party foods, and extra measures of green. Here's
how to have a hopping good frog theme party for kids:
Frog party supplies
We've gathered the meanest greenest frog party supplies available, including hard to
find frog inflatables, frog piñatas, frog balloons, frog candies and more.
Frog Party Favors
It takes a leap of faith, but you can also have a "toadally" good time planning a frog
party filled with froggy green favors. Take note, though, that most of the party goods
available for a frog party include colorful party favors, including pink, purple and blue
frogs. Think of it as a beautiful rainforest of frogs. If you're a purist, you can always
bake green frog sugar cookies, or fashion your own froggy cake pops. Bags of candies
filled with green gummy frogs are another do it yourself option. Buy in bulk and
package them in glassine envelopes.
Frog Party Invitations and Thank You Card Ideas
If you can't find a cute store bought frog invitation: make your own using a cookie
cutter as a template for your design. Stencil a frog from pretty papers, then cut your
shape and glue on a card stock. As inspiration for making your own, here is some
funny Frog Party invitations and wording ideas:

This is a party you can easily host at your pad, so go ahead and pad the place with
frogs.

Frog party foods
This is a frog party afterall, so your party foods should have extra doses of green. Get

Host a hopping good frog theme birthday party for kids
Leaping leapfrogs! If you're planning a frog birthday, then hop to it, because faster
than a dart frog, the big day will be here. Our goal is to make this birthday an un-frog-
getable party with inspiration for froggy themed cakes, food, favors and fun.
For this party, think lillypads, green party foods, and extra measures of green. Here's
how to have a hopping good frog theme party for kids:
- Layer your pad with lilypads: Frogs and lilypads go together like frosting and
cupcakes, so you've got to add lilypads to your frog party and here's how:
- Floating lilypads: Provide some froggy flair with the lilypad floating decorations,
left. Intended for your pond, you can place them in a clear bowl with water as
centerpiece or float them in your pool.
- Pond-er this one: you can easily make lily pad place mats, coasters, or other
decorative elements from construction paper in three easy steps:
- Roughly cut a circle from a green sheet of paper that's a bit oval in shape.
- Then snip a triangle towards the center like a slice of a pizza or pie.
- Next, cut a daisy like flower from white paper, prop up the petals and affix
it to the side.
- Lilypad plates: Perhaps this party idea will inspire a collection of frog themed
items. See the lilypad cake plates and appetizer dish sets, lower right, to
enhance your party food, and preserve the memories of your party for years to
come.
- Inflate the fun with frog inflatables: Your party is guaranteed to be un-frog-
ettable when you incorporate inflatable frogs into your party. Right, you'll find a
super sweet inflatable frog. Rest them on paper lilypads you make from green
construction paper (prop them with tape). Or just float them about the party.
They serve as decoration for the party and double as party favors.
- Hop into water! Consider making this a froggy pool party. If you don't have a
pool, the little tadpoles will certainly enjoy leap frogging between the sprinklers
and a wading pool. The Banzai Frog Spray Pool, right, is a popular option. A
frog birthday party is an absolutely "frogstastic" idea as a pool party for kids
who are a tad older. For a froggie pool party, play Flip the Frog, details below in
party game ideas.
Frog party supplies
We've gathered the meanest greenest frog party supplies available, including hard to
find frog inflatables, frog piñatas, frog balloons, frog candies and more.
- Frog piñata: Nothing screams kids party more than a piñata! Fill your frog
piñata, left, with plastic frog party favors. Ideas directly below for party favors.
- Frog Inflatables: Coveted by kids, inflatables enhance a party theme instantly
serving as entertainment and decoration. As guests leave, hand them an
inflatable as party favor. Frog inflatables pack well, so you can pull them out
long after the party is over to entertain the kids on a rainy day in your family
room. Skip the water and turn the froggie wading pool, right, into a play area
for little ones. Just add a few toys and balls!

- Frog suckers
- Sticky frog favors: The sticky frog assortment, left, are great for filling goodie
bags or to help you stuff the piñata. - Squirt frog favors: Bath tub squirt frogs, right, are ideal for a frog pool party
because their bellies fill with water for ammunition. The little squirts will love
them! - Frog mood bracelets: The girls will especially love a frog mood bracelet.
- Frog bubble gum machine: What kid doesn't dream of having his own gumball
machine? The adorable froggy bubble gum machine, right, stands 7.5" tall.
Gumballs aren't included, but you can buy them in bulk and fill them yourself. - Flying frog favors
- Froggy sunglasses favors: How funny the kids will look in their froggy sunglasses.
Yes, these are toad-ally cool. - Frog Key Chain favors. Kids love clipping key chains to their backpacks. This
sweet frog keychain will be a welcome addition to their collection.

cutter as a template for your design. Stencil a frog from pretty papers, then cut your
shape and glue on a card stock. As inspiration for making your own, here is some
funny Frog Party invitations and wording ideas:

Frog Party Decorations
This is a party you can easily host at your pad, so go ahead and pad the place with
frogs.
- Place frog candles on the buffet table to add some froggy charm.
- Raid the toychest or your child's room for your frog decorations! You'd be
surprised to find how many things you might already have. A froggy savings
bank for example, can guard the birthday gifts. The froggy kickball, right will
enhance your party theme outdoors as an actiivity and a decoration. Plus it
makes a great gift for the birthday kid. - Chalk up your drawing skills to create lily pads leading to the entrance of your
party with chalks. - Float colorful lily pads on the table in bowls (see the floating lily pads, left) or
float them in your pool or wading pool or pond with these faux beauties. They're
hard to find anywhere but online! - Give everyone a pad of their own. Cut place mats from green construction
paper, or transform green paper plates into lily pads. See Family Fun's Sherbet
the Frog to get the look. - Cut green felt into lily pads and nestle frog bath toys on each for a party favor
that doubles as decoration.
Frog birthday cake ideas
Whatever froggy birthday cake you create, the most fun way to enhance your cake is
with a lilypad cake plate. You may have to create your own.
- That's frog-tastic! Bake a Wilton frog cake for your little amphibian, pictured top
left, then sit back and listen to everyone who tells you that you should bake
cakes professionally. Serve up the fun factor when you ask party goers if they
would like flies with the cake, which is really mint chip ice-cream.
Frog party foods
This is a frog party afterall, so your party foods should have extra doses of green. Get
the look you want with our green party food ideas.
- Serve green devilled eggs in the frog themed egg plate, right, which also
includes the salt and pepper shakers.
- Lilypad cookies: Bake lily pad cookies and nestle a frog cookie on top, or bake
smaller lillypad cookies and position a frog gummy candy. You might be tempted
to place a froggie favor or plastic toy on top of a cookie. If you do this, be sure
the size of the toy is not a choking hazard in the event that a child thinks the
toy is a candy!
- Serve frothy frog pond scum drinks. Simply mix lime green sherbet with lemon
lime soda and top with a gummy frog, left.
- Your little one doesn't like cake? Imagine their surprise, when you bring out blue
ice cream topped with a lily pad sugar cookie on a toy frog!Find little plastic
frogs and wash them. Bake a sugar cookie in the shape of a lily pad, and
decorate them with candy flowers for the lilies. Make blue ice cream ahead of
time with Vanilla ice cream that you soften slightly and mix with blue powdered
food coloring. Return to freezer to harden. Blue powdered food coloring is
around $2 on Amazon.
- More froggy fun with food ideas:
- Make the Wilton Frog Lollipop, pictured right, lick-it-y split.
- Top green gelatin with a few Haribo Gummy frogs.
- Transform a Granny Smith into an apple-phibious treat.
- Serve burgers with French "flies" (just a funny name for burgers)
Frog Party Games and Activities
Activities for this party are easy, kids can use their frog legs for a bounce house or
simply play leap frog (under adult supervision) in the back yard. Here are other froggy
activities:
- Hip hop hooray! Invent your own frog dance. Load your MP3 with "Who let the
frogs out" by Crazy Frog, download left, and find other fun MP3 songs. Or just
load "Water Frogs" from Best Nature Sounds and have a "ribbiting" good time
when you set it on continual play (everyone will hear frogs in the background).
- Flip the Frog Pool party Game: The flip The Frog Pool Game, right, is easy enough
for little ones but challenging enough for older children. This pool game will be
played by the whole family. Toss the adorable frogs onto the different size lily
pads and add up your score.
- Learn about frogs: Print the Life Cycle of a Frog booklet for each party goer from
your computer. Then allow kids to color the pages and take it home.
- Froggie in the middle game: You play "froggie in the middle" the same as you'd
play monkey in the middle. Divide kids into sets of three. Two players stand
opposite each other with the froggie in the middle. Have kids toss a bean bag
or a ball between them and the froggie in the middle tries to get it. Repeat until
the froggie in the middle catches the ball, and the next player gets a turn in the
middle.
- Get hopping on a new twist to a familiar game: Gather kids in a circle for Tadpole,
Tadpole, FROG! This is a variation on the favorite Duck, Duck, GOOSE game.
