Kids' Birthday Parties - Top 5 Fun Children's Birthday Ideas
When planning kids' birthday parties, a single theme that combines decorations and activities can be lots of fun and keep the children entertained (a fun thought for the grownups!). But there's no need to wear yourself out with complicated arrangements before the party's even started: here are 5 children's birthday ideas that will be enjoyable for the kids ... and easy for busy grownups to plan!
Good Sport Kids' Birthday Party Ideas - Go For the Gold
Think Olympics as a theme for a children's birthday party. Depending on when the birthday party is taking place, you can do simple variations on summer or winter events such as gymnastics and relay races and set up your party space for indoor or outdoor play. Hang flags from different countries and buy foil-covered chocolate circles in gold and silver to award as “medals” to all the kids participating. You can decorate your kids' birthday party cake like the Olympic flag or, instead of a birthday cake, serve cupcakes colored and arranged like the Olympics flag circles: blue, yellow, black green and red.
A Capitol Kids' Birthday Party Idea - Hail to the Chief
Your child doesn't have to be old enough to vote for you to elect a presidential theme for a kids' birthday party. And no one has to choose sides, either: just decorate the birthday cake and party space in all-American red, white and blue. In addition to regular party games, one activity you can do at this kids' birthday party is have the girls and boys write down one thing they each would do if they were president. Or they can write one question they have for the current commander in chief, and you can send it to the White House on their behalf.
Just Boys Kids' Birthday Party Idea - It's a Bird, It's a Plane ...
Boys love playing superhero, and if you're having a birthday party just for boys, a fun kids' birthday party idea and activity would be to have them come as their favorite superhero. You can also transform the guests into superheroes at the children's birthday party with the help of some store bought or homemade masks and capes. The boys can even make their own masks, and one birthday party activity can be for them to use their imaginations and make up a brand new superpower.
Just Girls Kids' Birthday Party Idea - It's Tea Time!
If your children's birthday party is going to be an all-girl affair, how about having the birthday girl host a tea party? It can be simple or fancy, depending on the girls' ages and what's easily available to you. If the girls are little, use different-colored napkins to set the table prettily and serve iced tea in plastic cups. For older girls, using china cups and saucers would be an elegant way to celebrate at your child's birthday party. If you don't want to risk your own fine china, look around at local thrift stores or garage sales for a mix-and-match variety of dishes.

Cropping Photos, An Easy Guide for Scrapbookers
One of the basics of scrapbooking is cropping photos. Some tend to avoid cropping, not sure of how to go about it. Others may go to the other extreme, cropping every photo.
Looking back at my first albums, I see that all the photos were cropped, often in many different shapes. I would usually cut almost all of the background out of most of the photos. Through the years, as I have learned more about scrapbooking, and gained experience, the way that I crop photos has changed.
I look back at those early albums and wish I hadn't cropped out so much of some of the photos. Sometimes the backgrounds in our photos tell part of the story. I have learned that sometimes, less is more.
There are some good reasons to crop the photos for our scrapbooks. We can crop our photos to fit more on a page, and also to create visual variety that is pleasing to the eye. Let's take a look at some of the ways we can crop photos for beautiful scrapbook pages.
- Crop for Balance and Focus – We can crop photos for balance. I know I don't always take the time to compose every shot. Kids often don't hold still very long, making it difficult to get that perfect shot. Cropping photos can shift the focus where we want it.
- Crop to Enlarge – With digital photos, this is very simple. Sometimes the subject of the photo is too small, and gets lost in the picture. If we cropped around the subject the photo would be too small. We can crop to enlarge the subject by using photo editing software or at the photo lab before the photo is printed. If you only have a printed photo, try scanning the photo and then crop before reprinting.
- Crop Out Distractions – Sometimes we want to keep some of the background, but distracting backgrounds can be cropped out. Some backgrounds are very busy, pulling our eye away from the subject. Maybe we don't want the dirty dishes in the background. When photos are taken in public places we can crop other people out of the photos.
- Crop for Creativity – Photos can be cropped into creative shapes. This should be used very sparingly. Squares and rectangles are classic shapes that will always look pleasing. If it suits the layout, sprinkle a fun shape in here or there to add variety to a page. As a general rule one creative shape on a page is enough.
Now we have looked at some of the ways we can crop our photos. Try cropping very little at first, as you arrange your page layout you can always go back and crop more. There are also some some things we don't want to do when cropping photos.
- Instant Photos – Never crop instant photos (polaroid). The chemicals inside that were used to develop them can bleed out and ruin your scrapbook page. The layers can also come apart. If you must, scan them, print them on regular photo paper and crop them instead. If you don't like the white border, try hiding it behind a photo frame.
- Historical / Place References – Remember not to crop out all historical or place references. The places that the photos were taken tell part of the story.
- Shapes – Limit cropping photos into shapes. This will tend to overwhelm the page. Sprinkling an occasional circle or oval to accent a page. Use irregular shapes sparingly.
- One of a Kind Photos – Never crop a one of a kind photo. Scan these photos and crop those if you need to crop to fit in your page layout.
- Heritage Photos – Avoid cropping photos taken before 1950. The paper these photos were printed on is a fiber-based paper. Cropping will cause the edges to fray and the photos to deteriorate.
Keep these tips for cropping photos in mind. Soon you will be cropping with ease, and creating stunning scrapbooks.
