All the parents out there know how much of a hassle it is to plan a birthday, arrange a party and then entertain all the guests, especially the kids. Until and unless the kids reach their teens, there is no way out of celebrating birthdays every single year! So, rather than weaselling out of birthdays and birthday parties, why don’t you play a little smart?
If you don’t know what I’m talking about, continue reading, and you’ll get a hold of it.
Why Are Birthdays Such A Big Deal?
To be born is a big deal in itself, isn’t it?
In case you didn’t know already,
“The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.”
Talking about birthdays, who doesn’t like to celebrate the day they were born? Everyone does, which is exactly why birthdays are such a big deal. Planning, surprising, gifting, partying and whatnot. All of this is just a part of one’s birthday.
However, so many kids grow up, and they never feel like celebrating their birthdays, but until they’re kids, it’s not on them. It’s on their parents. So, parents don’t really have a choice whether or not to rejoice in their kid’s special day.
Hence, One can say that throwing parties on kids’ birthdays is VITAL until and unless they grow up and decide on their own.
Are Birthdays Just An Amusement For The Kids Or What?
No, they aren’t. They’re a hassle for all the parents who think of it as one. No doubt, birthdays are special, and they need to be celebrated to cherish one’s existence. However, they can be fun and games if you know how to plan them, and this blog is all about it.
How Do Birthdays And Party Food Boxes Relate?
What is a good event without food or favours? Nothing!
This is where party food boxes come to the rescue. Not only do they step your event’s game, but they also intrigue all the guests. An accurate box can be the perfect depiction of an arty event.
You’ll find out how continue reading.
What Are Party Food Boxes?
As the name suggests, these boxes are used to pack food items, snacks and other edibles on birthdays, parties, weddings and whatsoever. The idea behind using these boxes is two things, one to package food in cuter boxes and second, to add a little more creativity to the party.
How Do Party Food Boxes Take The Birthday Décor Up A Notch?
Imagine going to a party and seeing tables decorated with favour boxes for all the guests. That’s not all. The favour boxes are 100% in sync with the party!
Mind-blowing!! No?
That’s the reaction you want your guests to have, and for that to happen, you need to use custom food boxes but with a hint of innovation, smartness and creativity. Resonating your boxes with your event is a great way to tell your guests that you paid attention to detail and that you had everything in control! Even if you didn’t, they’d think you did!
It’s The Little Things That Matter
The little things really do matter, just like the favour boxes on a birthday event.
You don’t want people talking behind your back about how awful the party boxes were. So, to refrain from all the humiliation, curating party food boxes that people will gush over is a necessity. You, yourself, will fall in love with such a nicely planned event, so why wouldn’t the attendees be?
Character Themed Birthday Parties Are The Best
We all know that kids love having birthday bashes themed with their favourite cartoon characters, but it might sound a bit difficult for parents. But no biggie! Party food boxes to the rescue.
Refraining from the gender differences, girls can also love marvel themes, and boys can also love barbie themes with no restrictions. Moving forwards, no matter what your kid loves, you can get it done.
For instance, if your kid wants a spiderman themed birthday, you can pick a blue and red colour palette and do it all. Moreover, have the boxes printed with spiderman, and you’re done. It’s that simple. On the contrary, if your kid wants a barbie themes birthday, grab all the shades of pink and print barbies on the boxes, and you literally have it all under control.
Make Your Event The Talk Of The Town
Your event can be the talk of the town by just making people feel like you put in a great deal of effort, but in reality, you didn’t have enough to do because you made smarter choices.
Curate Extravagant Boxes
An extravagant party food box means that you put ribbons, print it, laminate it, design it, cut it out, pick the right colour, play with funky ideas, and voila, you have your extravagant box ready.
The Box Should Be Strong
The box needs to be strong enough to not tear down from the weight of the products inside. All you need is thick cardboard, and the job is done.
Intrigue The Guests With A Story
When people walk in, they want to be excited, from kids to adults, everyone. Which is why when they look at your box, they connect with it, pick it up and give it “that look”. For that to happen, the box you make should be a clear portrayal of the prettiest box anyone has ever seen before.
Match The Theme Of Your Party
As mentioned earlier, this is a very effortless way just to keep the entire event in coordination. Whatever theme you choose, get boxes for it and add a little extra detail on top, and you’re good to go.
Pick The Right Colors
Picking the ideal colours is important because they are the base of your event, and if they aren’t right, nothing will be. Regardless of the theme, you need to set a palette that is all about the event. The palette can be anything from nude, pastel, dull, light, dark, bold, neon colours etc.
Don’t Go Overboard
You really want your kid’s birthday to be the best one ever but doing a little too much is never good. So do all that you like, the sky is the limit but not too much.
Try Out Innovative Shapes
Kids like getting cute boxes on birthday’s that are just like the theme. So, you can cut out boxes of different shapes to match the event. For instance, a minion themed birthday can have minion shapes boxes. A Jurassic Park themed birthday can have dinosaur boxes and all that jazz.
The Right Lettering Can Leave An Impression
Finding the idyllic fonts that can match the box in one way or the other can be tiring, but way to go!! The font immediately pops out, so it’s worth all the effort.
Tempt The Attendees
You surely want your guests to be intrigued with your boxes even before they get a hold of the theme and the best way to do so is by placing PVC windows on top of the boxes. This way, people will snoop over the boxes and be irresistible.
Confetti And Sprinkles Are A Win-Win
Just how kids love balloons, they also love confetti and sprinkles, so why don’t you add it in the box or on the box? Once the box is ready, tie a balloon with confetti and candies on top and then ask the kids to pop their balloons and enjoy the treats.
Put In Treats For The Guests
Kids and adults, everyone loves being treated, and what’s a better treat than a dessert? So, you can always put in cupcakes, muffins, pastries, doughnuts, candies, chocolates, marshmallows, jellies, lollipops of any kind, and your guests will be oozing over them.
Kids Love Stickers
They surely do, and what can you do about it?
Place them in the boxes!
Give the kids stickers sheets so they can go home and still reminisce about the amazing party you threw.
Seal The Boxes With Custom Tapes
While getting custom boxes, also get your hands on customized tapes for the boxes. The tapes will further boost the entire aura of the box. Once the box is ready, tape it, and you’ll fall head over heels in love the minute you see the final thing.
