Birthday Party Decorations

Noahs Ark decorations, so inviting that you'll sail over two-by-two to celebrate. Before you gather the animals and get ready for the flood, check out these Noahs Ark decoration ideas, to help you create a tip-top, terrific toddler birthday party!

BOAT

If at all possible, try to hold the party on a boat. Perhaps a friend has a makeshift "ark" they are willing to "gift" to your child for their party. This "prop" will immediately set the tone for your Noah's Ark birthday party.

If a boat just isn't available, then make a huge ark that covers one of your party room walls. Your best option for creating this would be to use butcher paper and paint it brown. Be sure to add windows to your ark, so you can place a photo of each child attending the party in one of the windows. They will all enjoy seeing themselves "floating" in the ark! Of course, no ark is complete unless you fill it with animals. Attach animal Mylar balloons, two of each animal type, to your ark. Finish it off by making wavy blue water from construction paper or cardstock and glue it to the ark's bottom. Add a colorful rainbow and a white dove in the sky.

SIGNS/YARD STAKES

Make various Noahs Ark decorations to cover your walls. Signs are always a great option and they can also be attached to yard stakes and used to line the walkway entrance. Have them say things like "Caution! Flooding Ahead", "I'm Flooded With Excitement", "Welcome to (child's Name)'s Ark", "Animal Crossing", etc.

CEILING DECOR

Cut various animal shapes (two of each animal type) from craft foam or construction paper, using animal stencils as your guide. Hang them from your ceiling at various lengths using fishing line.

Noahs Ark decorations would not be complete without an array of color demonstrated by turning your entire ceiling into a delightful rainbow. Cover it with rows of twisted streamers in all the various colors of the rainbow -- red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.
