Birthday Parties

Self Isolation Party Ideas

Having to self-isolate has changed the way we do life right now. Even though so many elements of normal every-day life are on hold, birthdays still happen and parties can still happen too. The Family Centre is here to help out with some ideas on how to put together a party even in self-isolation! Keep on scrolling for all our ideas and links to some external party resources. 

We have also put together the ultimate birthday party pack, with Family Centre carb-counted recipes, colouring and activity packs, and templates for online personalised invitations. If you'd like to purchase one of our party packs, click on the button below! All proceeds go towards supporting the type 1 community of Western Australia!

Perhaps you'd like to do something a bit different this year and host a fundraiser for the Type 1 Diabetes Family Centre. We rely solely on individual and community support to operate, your support helps to change the lives of the type 1 community. We would love for you to consider us as your chosen charity. Facebook Birthday Fundraisers are an excellent tool for fundraising for a cause close to your heart. Facebook will alert you two weeks before your birthday about doing a birthday fundraiser, or you could head here and start one straight away!

Young children

Our youngest members of society are finding it difficult to understand the current changes to our lives and will probably be the hardest hit with the disappointment due to cancelled birthday parties.  

 

Virtual Party Entertainment 

Some party entertainers have moved into the online entertainment space to accommodate for changing times. These are hassle-free parties where all the virtual planning is already done for you, ready to go with a unique link that you can share with friends to set up your party.

Drive By Parade 

Organise a drive by party parade to show your child that people are still thinking of them on their special day. Give your friends parents notice so that their children can prepare banners and decorate the car then organise a time so that your child can see them all in succession. Play some music, have party popper and whistles and get the atmosphere going! 

Older children and teens

Activity Ideas to incorporate into your video conference party 

  • Virtual Sleepover 

  • Dance off 

  • Karaoke 

  • Dress-up  

  • Pamper parties – each do their own toes/finger nails together 

  • Make-up party – watch a tutorial together and follow-along 

  • Gaming party – Discord app

  • Movie night: 

  • TikTok party – everyone performs their favourite TikTok dance 

  • Online dance party/karaoke party 

  • Scavenger Hunts

Adults

Most of the above ideas could also work for adult parties. Or rally up the neighbours, crank the music and plan a street dance party on your own properties like these ladies in the UK did (just stay within your own property boundaries), see here!
