Let’s get real. We’re heading into a somewhat “iffy” season weather-wise. It’s unpredictable, swinging from sunshine to rain before we’ve even finished our morning coffee. Unpredictable weather and kids parties do not mix!

So if you’ve got a kids party coming up, an indoor party is 100% weatherproof! We’ve got 10 super fun and unique indoor party ideas your kids will love to make sure bad weather doesn’t dampen the birthday fun ever again!

FORT BUILDING PARTY

Who didn’t love building forts as a kid? The idea behind this indoor party theme is for the kids to make their own forts using blankets, chairs and string supplied by you. This would work great for a slumber party but just as well for a rainy indoor afternoon party, where you could work in prizes for most creative fort, best fort etc. We’ve got the perfect invitation to get the fort building fun started, featuring colourful forts and editable text to make it your own!

ICE SKATING PARTY

Ice skating is a fun activity come rain or shine. On a boiling hot summers day it can be a welcome respite from the heat and in the cold, it can add to the cosy winter atmosphere. Indoor ice skating rinks often have skate hire facilities, instructors and even cafés to make it a fuss-free indoor kids party. We’ve created these cute ice skating party invitations with sweet little skaters strutting their stuff in the rink.
