Planning a birthday party is hectic, but planning a themed birthday party is daunting. There is pressure to match everything from the cake to the decorations and the venue with the theme. When you plan a laser tag themed birthday party, it can become immensely popular among kids, so make sure you plan it well. Here are some tips to make your party a success.

Make A Schedule

Begin with having a schedule. Assuming you are always working, volunteering at school or your local sports club, or are exceptionally preoccupied with your family, organizing a birthday celebration can be difficult. But, having a to-do-list for everything that should be finished, by when, and by whom can truly make throwing the party easier.

Set a Date, Time, and Location

Planning a kid’s birthday party around their school schedule and sports commitments can be difficult. You need to see if there are other important events marked for the day. Likewise, consider whether you need to host the party during the school holidays or on school days.

Consider the hour of the day you need to start off the party. This will help you decide on a menu and understand whether you need to arrange snacks or lunch/dinner. Also, if you arrange the party in your home and you realize your patio isn't sufficient enough for the guests, then consider throwing a party at a nearby park. Being in the neighborhood will make the party easier for your child’s friends who live close by.

Select a party theme.

Arranging laser tag for birthday party is a great theme that can include sub-themes like armed forces parties, science fiction parties, or superheroes. Or you could get a few cool party ideas based on popular trends of this era. Look for signs for party themes based on what your children love. Laser Tag West Covina or Laser Tag Pomona arenas of XP Mobile Laser Tag are popular for their birthday party arrangements.

Set a Budget

If you have a budget, you'll be able to come up with great ideas surrounding that budget. For example, if your budget is limited to a certain amount and you want to throw a laser tag party, then you could rent a reasonable laser tag set. There are laser tag sets that allow 16 children to play the game, and they are very reasonably priced. Don’t go overboard because money needs to be saved for decorations and cake.

Create a Guest List

After your date, time, and venue are set, focus on your guest list. Decide whether there will be only kids at the party or if there will be adults as well. If you are playing laser tag, then a guest list is important because then you will set up the game accordingly, meaning you will either get a kid's set up or an adult's laser tag set up. Also, make sure to ask your kid whom they want to invite, and make sure to send them an invite beforehand asking them to be free on that date, so that your kid feels happy.

Additionally, decide on how you’re going to send the invites, whether digitally or by printing them on cards. Remember, when you rent from XP Mobile Laser Tag, you get Sunday free of charge if you book a party for Saturday. This gives you a chance to have two parties if you have two children with birthdays on nearing dates.

Birthday Cake

Birthday cakes have become an industry in themselves now. The themes and designs have evolved beyond our imaginations. It's nothing like the old times when we would pick up cakes from a supermarket and they would be eaten within seconds of being cut and no one would even notice how they looked. But now creativity has taken a huge leap, and birthday cakes are one of the biggest highlights of the party. Some of them are so beautiful that it becomes almost a crime to cut and eat them.

If you're having a laser tag-themed birthday, then the cake should have been a part of the theme, but again, don’t go overboard and burn it with a laser beam instead of cutting it with a knife.

Party Games

Renting a laser tag set is always a great idea to make your party a hit. Get a kit and play laser tag games like Capture and Hold or King of the Hill. Separate the kids into two teams and watch them destroy each other in the game, but in the end, have a blast. These fun-filled games make the kids happy and make the party a success. The more adventurous games you include in your party, the more these kids will be compelled to play outside and leave their Ipads and video games behind.
