Under the Sea Party
| An Under the Sea party is a pool party theme that fits boys or girls or a mixed group. |
Pool Party Themes
Pool party themes help give direction to your invitations, decorations, food, games and party bags. The decorations and games can be adjusted so that they appeal to all different ages. My granddaughters loved helping me make these fish party decorations made out of paper plates. We painted them blue, cut out the mouths, stapled two plates together, and then stapled in deep blue and aqua blue tissue paper that were cut into strips. Place the fish in lots of different places. We hung these "tropical fish" from the patio umbrella that is also decorated with aqua blue shimmery netting. These tropical fish were put on blue painted dowels and set on either side of the pool gate welcoming the pool party guests as well.
Deep Sea Birthday Party
A Deep Sea Birthday Party will provide you with lots of themed pool party games that include swimming with other deep sea fish and mermaids.
Under the Sea Invitations
You can create your own Under the Sea party invitations with some fish shaped foam stickers and some colorful little beads. Punch a hole in the top and tie an aqua blue ribbon so that the invitation can be hung on the friend's door knob. Depending on the age of your children, they can help create the invites with you. I found a large box of these foam stickers from Walmart that included all kinds of shapes for a deep sea party theme - octopuses, fish, waves, dolphins, and coral.

Under the Sea Party Supplies
These deep sea party bags were made with blue lunch bags that I found at Target. Trim the top of the bag with a decorative scissor and stick some ocean themed foam stickers on the front. It's easy to find inexpensive favors in the beginning of the summer but by mid-July most of them are gone. I bought the last 5 of these mermaids at the Dollar store for the girls party bags and found some fun, tropical pool fish for the boys. Fish straws and Little Mermaid and fish stickers completed the bags.
Under the Sea Pool Party Games

Most games can be adapted so that the games are fun and yet a bit challenging. Always have plenty of adult supervision. For pool game ideas click here:
