How to have a cool pool party for your little surfer girl or boy
So your little Kahuna is having a birthday? If you're wondering how you're going to pull
off a surfer party, then "hang ten" fingers on this Web page to learn how to have a
beach bash or pool party that will have him California Dreaming. Your little surfer girl
will be just as stoked with this unusual theme.
Here's how to give that little wave rider a surf party he won't soon forget:
- Better surf than sorry! The venue doesn't need to be set at the pool. This party
idea is equally fun on a beach, lake or even a lawn. If you can borrow a surf
board, kids will be happy just pretending to be on a big wave. You might
otherwise make your own surfboard from wood or poster board. And you don't
need a good swell to go surfing when you have a Slip 'n' Slide or a Banzai
Skimboard surfer, pictured bottom right.
- Surf the Web for surf party supplies. Surf party supplies aren't easy to find, but
you can surf the Web for surfer toys. The LEGO surfer, left, would make an ideal
cake topper. Right, surf cars
More ideas for a surf party...
- Get tubular for this party idea: Think ocean waves, long-boards, boogie boards,
valley girl, and retro beach party water fun. Throw in a few sunglasses, flip-flops,
a touch of Tiki, a shark or two and you're set for a memorable day. Dude, you've
got to see our Shark Party ideas and Tiki Party ideas, too.
- Surf the web for surfer tattoos. Surf tattoos help set the mood and provide an
activity, so go ahead and decorate your little surfers:
- Buy 50 surf tattoos, right, just $5.95 and with free shipping.
- Try 3D surf tattoo favors. The Surf Tattoo assortments, top right, comes in
a fun 3-D box which are great to give away for party favors. Each 3-D Box
comes with a wide variety of surf themed tattoos for hours of fun.
Assortment includes 12 Surf 3-D boxes.

Surf party decorations
Get ready for the ride of your life as we show you where to get surf party supplies and
decorations:
- Make him an instant surfer dude. Access to an old surf board or borrow one, place
it on the grass and let kids catch an imaginary wave or two. It makes a great
photo prop as well, which you can use for the thank you cards. Even without a
surfboard you can have fun. The surfer dude photo prop, right also makes a fun
photo opportunity. It's under six bucks. The beach boys and girls will love the
surf duo, left.
- Make your garden a surf zone. Secure a large appliance box and cut them into life
size long boards. Spray paint both sides of the cardboard with a lighter color,
such as yellow and let dry overnight. Then highlight with orange and blue paints
you brush on with a sponge brush. The Then mount them to bamboo canes
(which you'll find at a craft store), so that they will pop out from your flower beds
or sandbox. Take inspiration for the designs from such things as the plates, left.
- Buy your surfer dude a mini surfer as an early gift. The birthday kid gets to design
his own mini surf board. But don't be fooled by the cuteness. This little guy
actually rides waves (small ones)! You'll attract attention at the beach with this
fun activity. The remote control surfer at the bottom of this page is just as fun,
but that little dude is unsinkable! Take him to the lake, or let him surf alone in
the pool (he rips it).
- Layout the surfboard beach towels. You'll find a fun array online as well as surf
board rugs.
Surf Party Foods
Your surf shack is sure to be a hit when you incorporate these ideas:
- This ice cream sandcastle cake with surf board candles looks like it was made
with crushed cookies to look like sand. Yum! - Spare the expense of a surf and turf meal. Kids will be content with "hot dogging"
it and everyone will admire your creativity when you insert the comical shark
attack food picks, right, into the buns. - A dab of icing is all you need to decorate cookies with the surf board sugars,
pictured left. - Surf board cupcake toppers
- Gummy candy flip flops
- Flip Flop Cookies
- You'll flip in your flops for the beachy-keen dessert idea from Kaboose.
Surfer party favors

direction and speed of this remote control surfer from up to 200 feet. He's
unsinkable, self-correcting and self-propelled and features special "automatic
return" technology. Makes a fun birthday gift and party activity in one.
- Try SubSkate underwater surfing. Have the surfer guys and girls test their
underwater skills of balance with SubSkate. See if they can twist and trick the
rid. Get a stop watch and clock how long they can maneuver the board and
award prizes to the one who can stay on the longest and do the fanciest trick.
- Have a surf board coloring contest. Younger kids will appreciate the opportunity to
design their own long board. You'll appreciate the free coloring pages.
