Frog Party
How to have a hopping good frog theme birthday party for kids

certainly enjoy leap frogging between the sprinklers and the wading pool. They can
also use their frog legs for a bounce house. And a frog birthday party is an absolutely
"frogstastic" idea as a pool party for kids who are a tad older. It takes a leap of faith,
but you can also have a "toadally" good time planning a frog party filled with froggy
green favors and fun even if it's not at the pool. If you're planning a frog party, then
hop to it, because faster than a dart frog the big day will be here:
How to have a hopping good frog theme birthday party for kids
Leaping leapfrogs, a frog party is fly with boys and girls alike! The little tadpoles will
certainly enjoy leap frogging between the sprinklers and the wading pool. They can
also use their frog legs for a bounce house. And a frog birthday party is an absolutely
"frogstastic" idea as a pool party for kids who are a tad older. It takes a leap of faith,
but you can also have a "toadally" good time planning a frog party filled with froggy
green favors and fun even if it's not at the pool. If you're planning a frog party, then
hop to it, because faster than a dart frog the big day will be here:
- Start by picking a color scheme: With dart frogs as your inspiration, look to
contrasting green with orange party supplies, foods and favors. On the girly
side, choose pink or purple as the accent with green. A lavender tablecloth looks
pretty paired the purple frog party plates in Melamine, left. For the boys, pair the
plates with blue to represent the frog pond waters. Wash up the plates as
favors or keep them for yourself long after the party is over.
- Make lily pad place mats from construction paper. Cut a rough circle from a green
sheet of paper that's a bit oval in shape. Then cut a triangle off center of your
oval like a pizza slice. Next, cut a daisy like flower from white paper, prop up the
petals and affix it to the side.
- Serve frothy frog pond scum drinks. Simply mix lime green sherbet with lemon lime
soda and top with a gummy frog.
- Hip hop hooray! 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).

A toddler frog party is a TOADally fun party idea whether you're planning a frog party
for a toddler. A toddler frog party is a hopping good idea. Still searching for toddler
birthday ideas? Even if a frog party for your toddler isn't a good fit, there are dozens
of other good ideas on these pages or you can try our custom search below.
- That's frog-tastic! Bake a Wilton frog cake for your little amphibian, pictured 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.
- 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
If your party is at the pool, you don't need much other activity, but if your party is
indoors, then here's how to ensure kids are swamped with activities for your frog
party:
- Play "froggie in the middle" (same game as monkey in the middle). Divide kids
into sets of three. Two players stand opposite each other with the froggie in
the middle. They 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 some familiar games: Gather kids in a circle for
Tadpole, Tadpole, FROG! This is a variation on the favorite Duck, Duck, GOOSE
game. Or create a Hop scotch with froggy designs.
- Be toadally cool. Set out some lily pad pillows and gather up the tadpoles for
story time and songs:
- Spend a tad telling a tale. A favorite is "Froggy Bakes a Cake" by Jonathan
London and illustrated by Frank Remkiewicz. This book is anything but a
flop: it consistently gets high ratings on Amazon. But any book from
Froggy series will do, such as "Froggy Learns to Swim." Either would be
apropos as you can end by serving the birthday cake or sending the kids
out for a swim. - Croak like a frog! Teach the kids the Five Little Froggies song.
- 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.
More cool stuff for your frog party:
- Adopt a frog! With Grow A Frog, pictured left, you can adopt a tadpole and grow
it to maturity. The kit includes a mail-ready card to receive a tadpole grown in a
Florida lab within weeks of mailing it. Time it right and your child can proudly
display a home grown frog. This product consistently gets high ratings on
Amazon. (Please don't disturb the natural habitat of frogs and their eco-
system by going to the swamp.)
