Best 1st Birthday Party Themes for Twins
1. Mario Bros. – For all you gamers out there, you can't go wrong with the brothers you grew up playing with. Dress your twins as Mario and Luigi for a classic video game-themed party. This has terrific options for cakes in the shape of the green pipes, mushrooms or coins. It's also a theme that gets everyone in on the fun when guests and their kids dress up as their own favorite video game characters.
2. Mickey and Minnie Mouse – This works best with boy/girl twins if you're planning matching character costumes. Still, twins don't necessarily need to dress like these Disney favorites. Instead, choose favors and decorative items that celebrate these iconic mice while the television show plays in the background. All the kids at the party will be endlessly entertained.
3. Circus – A circus theme is all-encompassing, with numerous activities built right into the concept. You can go as big or as small as you want with this idea. Hire an elephant and trainer to come to the party, rent a tent, invite a clown or have guests make their own cotton candy. Your kids could be dressed as a lion tamer and a lion or two goofy clowns. The options are endless.
4. Pirate and First Mate – Pirates are becoming more of a popular theme for parties overall, so you're not likely to run into much trouble when it comes to collecting the items you'll need. One twin could be the pirate while the other is the first mate. Baby carriers could be turned into pirate ships, and the gifts could be placed into a treasure chest to mimic pirate's booty.
5. Princesses – Your little girls are already your princesses, so dress them up like they are royalty. Tiaras are made in any size. Parents can even get in on the fun by dressing in their majestic best, and you can encourage guests to mimic the monarchy with their own costumes.
Let your imagination roll with these party themes. All of them can become more extravagant if you're looking to make a big impression on guests or can be simplified depending on your budget.
