10 Hottest Trends in Kiddie Parties in 2012

Are you wondering what’s new in kiddie parties this year? We’ve got the latest buzz on what’s cool for your child’s next birthday party!

1. Roving Camera Man

Instead of confining on-site photo booths to a corner of the party, this new way of taking photos on-site is definitely a party hit! It also lessens the space required for your souvenirs, and makes sure all the guests have pictures together. No need to drag you friends to the booth, because the booth makes its way to you!
 
2. Black Light Show

Tired of the usual magic shows? Black Light shows are now a popular alternative for kiddie-parties. This would require an indoor venue that can be completely darkened, but it’s definitely something new that the kids would love.

3. Robotic Dinosaurs

If you’re looking for the ultimate mascot that your kids will never forget, this would be it! These robotic dinosaur animals look so real, your kids will have a hard time believing dinosaurs are extinct!
 
4. Zorbs

Having an outdoor party, but tired of the usual inflatables? Let your kids roll around in these safe outdoor Zorbs! A large, flat area would be best to keep this activity safe and fun.

5. Lego Corner

Doing a Lego-themed party, or are you simply looking for a simple side-activity that will keep toddlers (especially boys!) occupied? This lego / mega-blocks setup is a quiet yet colorful activity that kids of all ages will enjoy.  

6. Avengers and Transformers Mascots

We know that mascots have been around for years, but these new mascots will definitely bring your party to another level. With lights embedded in each mascot, not to mention the height and machine-like actions that they have, these mascots are definitely worth booking for your Superhero parties.

7. Flipbooks

Want to remember the party’s action, literally? Flipped! Manila is the newest trend in photobooths, but instead of just 1 photo, you get to keep a small flipbook. Keep moving to ensure that the flipbook comes out with really cool shots! To know more about flipbooks, watch the video below:

8. Milk Tea Treats

It’s the latest trend in Manila, and now, in kiddie parties, too! Milk teas are a lot more affordable than the branded coffee booths in the market. Milk tea is the coolest thing – literally - to hit kiddie parties! Check with your favorite brands, or your neighborhood milk tea place (such as Twittea, pictured below) if they do kiddie parties – they most likely do!

9. Tots Hullabaloo

Having a lot of toddlers over for your party? If you’re planning to have a more intimate and toned-down party for babies, Tots Hullabaloo provides a safe yet educational environment for the kids. An English-speaking host will guide them thru fun activities that are perfect for their age level.

10. Rodeo Bull Ride

If you’re having a Western / Cowboy-themed party, this cool ride is a fun addition for the older kids and adults! Safety won’t be a problem – there are settings to keep the bull at a slow pace for the kids (and a faster pace for the adults!)  The ride is also padded underneath, so you don’t have to worry about falling off.
