This is a Basketball birthday party I made for my nephew. With March coming up I thought that a lot of the ideas here could also work great for a March Madness Basketball party. Whether you’re having a game-watching party or a children’s birthday, here are a few pointers to steer you in the right direction for an unforgettable Basketball party:
Party invitations: A fun concept guests always love are these Basketball Ticket Invitations.
Party favors for guests: Kids LOVE these Basketball VIP Passes. As your guests enter the party and present their invitation admit ticket, put one VIP pass around each child’s neck and see their eyes glow 🙂
At the end of the party, you can hand out to each guest a fun Basketball Favor Box filled with goodies!
Party games: Basketball of course! You can either take your guests to a Basketball court in the neighborhood or just place a bucket and have the kids throw a basketball into it. Contact me if you’re interested in this Printable Basketball Scoreboard to keep score. It comes with fun medals for the winners!
Themed Party Food
Anything round: Think Falafel balls, little ban rolls, etc.
Anything orange: a healthy option is carrot sticks. You can cut sticks of different vegetables (peppers, cucumbers, etc.) to represent different team colors as well.
Decor and matching supplies: once again, anything orange can work great – table map, straws, plates. You can mix two colors – orange works great with brown or black – like these black polka dot napkins:
To complete the decor use Basketball-themed Printables – as banners, flags, bottle wrappers, food toppers, etc.
