4th July Party Ideas

Independence Day is a time to celebrate Americas independence from the British. So why not celebrate this year with a party for your friends and family? Take a look at these following 4th July party ideas:

1. First things first and that is your party invitations. Why not send them out on mini American flags, writing the details on one! Get plenty in as you’ll require more for the party!

2. State on your invitations (in a non jokey way) that if anyone turns up not wearing red, white and blue then they will be charged on the door!

3. One idea you should consider is hiring out a pavillion if your local park has them!

4. Hire a face painter, or allow the kids to paint the American flag on each others faces! They will love it and it will keep them quiet.

5. Line the walkway to your house with mini American flags.

6. Every American should have a large flag. Make sure it’s in a prominent position.

7. Get some squirt guns. Fill them with either red or blue water and have a red team and a blue team.

8. For later, make sure you have patriotic red, white and blue fireworks.

9. Of course your food should be all American. For starters have watermellon and you can have a seed spitting contest.

10. No matter where your party venue is, you really should have a BBQ. Make sure you have all the usual American trimmings; sausages, burgers and chicken etc.

11. Bake a patriotic American flag cake. You can use strawberries and blueberries for the stars and stripes.

12. Make red and blue gelatin deserts. Also, any 4th July party should have apple pie as a mandatory inclusion.

13. Cause a stir at your 4th July party by turning up as a British redcoat. Consider hiring out a Captain America outfit or buying a founding Father costume!
