planning a party with a zombie theme that boys in particular will love.
You may want to host a zombie party for kids that's more cute than gory. No worries.
We've unburied the best ways to enliven this party theme for kids:
- Don't toss your cookies! A Zombie Party doesn't have to be scary. You'll dig this
sweet idea for the party: zombie cookies displayed in a zombie cookie jar, left.
Everyone will want to dig in for more of your zombie cookies made with Green
chocolate chips. The secret is Guittard's Green mint chips, left. Or try your
favorite recipe with a few drops of green food coloring in the batter.
- See our big batch sugar cookie recipe.
- Consider Zombie gingerbread cookies using the adorable gingerbread
zombie cookie cutters. - Use the cookie jar as an ice bucket. Now that's a brain freeze!
- Fill it with Brain candy, left.
- Make it a thriller! Teach the kids how to dance like a zombie, Michael Jackson
style! Load your MP3 with Michael Jackson's Thriller, and be sure to play The
Ramones Pet Cemetary, the Doors, People are Strange, and, of course, The
Cranberries Zombie. And don't forget music by Rob Zombie!
- Open a Zombie Museum: Set up an area of the party for kids to explore with
props as your zombie museum. Mom can be the curator to explain all the gory
details and to set imaginations running wild with this zombie entertainment.
The Zombie novelties you display can be given as prizes for the zombie games
you play. A zombie museum is easy enough to do with a few props we've found:
- Zombie Blood: This fruity green potion has all the nutrients the walking
dead (or the walking alive) need to get through their day! Packed in a
bag that looks like a hospital blood bag, this is the energy drink every
zombie needs! The birthday kid will crazy for this. Use it as a decoration
display for the party as part of a mini zombie museum.
- Zombie Warning poster: Kids will start to get into the party theme when
they see the Zombie Warning poster. It explains how to indentify a
zombie, places to avoid, displatching a zombie and more. The birthday kid
will appreciate displaying this poster on his wall.
- Zombie Jerky: Who thinks of this stuff? The undead are not just for
drinking, but for eating too! Zombie Jerky is a delicious slimy green beef
jerky made from 100% real zombies (or cows as some people call them)
and boasts a delicious "teriyucky" flavor. Each realistic looking specimen
bag packs 1.25oz of Dead Meat Chunks. Invite the kids to try a chunk!
- Sweeten up the Party with Zombie Candies: This is a party theme where you
should indulge the kids in candy! There are lots of cute gummy candies, suckers
and more to give the kids some laughs and entertain their sweet tooth, so

in zombie green with crispies added for that extra crunch. Simply
ghoulicious!

red coloring giving the appearance of blood. Perfect for the Halloween

but when they do, body parts are part of the fun. Right, you'll find Zombie

Zombie Party Decorations

hands and body parts. Set up a zombie buffet table with the dashboard zombie,

of the party.
