Tropical Party

A tropical party or a luau birthday party is the most popular and easy of all pool party themes. Decorate walkways and paths with tiki lights, serve frozen tropical drinks and play a game of limbo.
Tropical Invitations
What could be more clever than a tropical pool party invitation coming in a bottle? Of course if you want to be more conventional you can print invites from your computer or buy them from your local print shop. Evite.com provides the option of sending free pool party invitations. It is an inexpensive and convenient way of getting the word out about your next pool party. The pool party invites can be customized to fit the theme of your party. You can send these for free - there is no cost involved in using this website service. So save the money you would spend on stamps and invites and spend it on your pool party decorations. Plus it is convenient and easy for your guest to reply by e-mail. Be sure to include special instructions - like wear your most colorful tropical shirt or decorated flip flops. Let them know there is a prize for the best tropical looking shirt. Another feature of this website is that reminders are sent via e-mail to the guest lists as the party date gets closer or to remind those that have not yet RSVP'd that a response is still needed.
Frozen Tropical Drinks
Frozen tropical drinks are a big hit for kids and adults. Our grandchildren find them to be the best treat and ask me to make them one every time they come to visit. They can be delicious and healthy too, using frozen (preferably organic) fruit, yogurt or kefir, and a touch of vanilla extract. For some easy, fun and great tasting frozen blender drinks click here:

Frozen Tropical Alcoholic Drinks
Serve frozen tropical alcoholic drinks to fit with your tropical themed party. Pina Coladas are a must and can be served with or without the alcohol. For some refreshing recipes click here:

Limbo Music
What's a tropical or tiki party without limbo music? Play it in the background, or better yet, how about a limbo game for a fun adult pool party game. Play some Caribbean music and line up. The dancers lean backwards, going under a stick that is either held by other dancers or on a support, without touching it. When the stick is touched, the dancer is out. The stick is continually lowered until there is one person left - who should receive a grand prize - like a pretty lei or a hula skirt.
Tropical Party Supplies
Tropical party supplies or tiki party supplies are in abundance. Use tiki torch lights at the entrance to your pool, on the walkway, and in the eating and food area. Decorate your table with a fresh bouquet of colorful flowers and lots of candles. Greet each party guest with a colorful lei. I have found lots of tiki party supplies at the local Dollar Store - plastic plates, napkins, leis, and banners are all available during the summer months.
