[Make It a Day to Remember] A Collection of Ideas to Liven Up a Birthday Party!

Pythagorean device

Pythagora Device 46

How about using a Pythagora Device—the kind made famous by the show “PythagoraSwitch”—as a surprise? Turning the entire venue into an elaborate setup would make for a top-tier surprise, but considering the risk of failure, you could start with a video and switch to a live demonstration partway through.

And of course, wrap it up with a congratulatory message to the guest of honor.

If you sprinkle in little references and inside jokes related to the person being celebrated throughout the contraption, you’re likely to get some laughs.

Candy backpack

I tried making a backpack out of snacks.

How about a candy backpack—said to have originated in Korea—as a gift? It’s great to eat and handy for carrying things, and the material costs aren’t too high.

Kids are sure to love it! Fill it with the recipient’s favorite treats.

Just be careful in the summer, as chocolate is likely to melt.

The worst trip ever

I tried giving the worst trip ever as a birthday present

A birthday-celebration trip sounds like the kind of event that would become an unforgettable memory.

Here, for a friend born in winter, we’re giving the gift of the worst trip imaginable: short sleeves and shorts.

In that case, rather than remembering where you went, all you’d recall is the cold—and you’d surely forge a wonderful bond with the friend who braved the chill alongside you.

Chocolate fondue is perfect for birthday parties with lots of kids and women who love sweet treats and stylish desserts! These days you can buy fondue machines that create an eye-catching chocolate tower, which really brightens up the party table.

Why not set out fruits, marshmallows, chips, and more so everyone can enjoy? If you’re worried about melting the chocolate properly, try using ready-to-use liquid chocolate sold in tubes.

It’s easy to prepare and helps you avoid any mishaps!

The Inextinguishable Candle

What if the birthday cake... Prank☆Akira’s 10th Birthday☆

Have you heard of “non-extinguishing candles”? Regular candles go out as soon as you blow on them, but these ones don’t go out even if you blow on them normally! They’re a fun party item that surprises people and makes them wonder, “Why won’t it go out?!” Perfect for birthdays—there’s always a cake, so why not give the guest of honor a little surprise? They’re great for everyone from kids to adults, and if everyone teams up to finally blow them out at the end, you’ll make one more happy memory together.

Memory jar

AKEBONO STUDIO Memory Jar! Fill it with memories… 2015.07.19

Memory jars are popular among women both in Japan and abroad.

They’re typically used like a diary: you write down happy moments from each day on slips of paper and collect them in a jar.

But they also make thoughtful gifts for someone special.

Recall as many fun memories and amusing moments as you can, write them on small pieces of paper, and fill the jar.

Give it to the person on their birthday.

Each time they open a slip, the memories will come back to life, creating a heartwarming birthday experience.

Create album

Black Pug Knight’s pet photo album workshop — tried using masking tape! ☆ミ

Paste messages and photos into a scrapbook and give it as a present! If you go to a general store, you’ll find a birthday section with all kinds of scrapbooks and stickers, so I think it’s a great idea to make use of them! It’ll be a treasure for a lifetime!
