How to Nail the Decorations, Party Favors, Cake, Games, and Activities for an Inside Out Party
When it comes to planning a themed birthday party, the details really make it pop, and an Inside Out theme is no exception. For decorations, go wild with a rainbow of colors to represent the different emotions from the movie—think bright yellows for Joy, blues for Sadness, reds for Anger, purples for Disgust, and greens for Fear. I hung colorful streamers, used balloons that matched each emotion, and set up a backdrop with a Inside Out scene to really set the mood. It was like stepping into Riley’s mind!
For party favors, I found that little emotion-themed gift bags were a huge hit. You can fill them with themed trinkets, candy, and small toys, and maybe throw in a little note saying something like, “Thanks for sharing your joy with us today!” It’s all about making those little touches that tie into the theme and leave a lasting impression.
When it came to the cake, I didn’t want to stress over a super elaborate design, so I went for a simple, colorful cake with a multi-layered inside to represent the different emotions. It was so fun cutting into the cake to reveal each bright layer—total showstopper moment. You could also go with a themed cake topper featuring the characters or even make the cake look like Riley’s brain, filled with layers of different flavors.
For games and activities, I made sure to keep them interactive and theme-driven. One of the best ones was “Feelings Charades.” The kids took turns acting out different emotions while everyone else guessed, and let me tell you, it had the whole group in stitches! Another activity that was a hit was the “Memory Game.” I printed out pictures of the characters and scenes from the movie and had the kids match them up. It was a great way to keep them entertained and engaged while still sticking to the theme.
And before the party wraps up, I’ve got some Inside Out coloring pages that are perfect for keeping the kids busy while they wind down from all the fun. These coloring sheets feature all the main characters and emotions, and they make for an easy, stress-free activity as you wrap up the party. The kids can take them home as little souvenirs too!
