Naturally, you need to theme the party to suit your guests.

There are a number of different themes that you can do for a camping party. The most popular themes are Military Camp party, Safari Camp party, Summer Camp party and Rocky Mountain event.

If youre hosting a military camp party, you can invite your guests to join you on a special mission. And naturally there are all kinds of ways to decorate with a military theme. Refreshments can be as realistic as you wantalthough most kids wont be satisfied with MREs, but if you can find them, they will really love trying them out. Dont forget to set up an obstacle course. Its just not camp without one!

Older children tend to like the Safari Camp party & the Summer Camp party. Both of these themes work well with scavenger hunts which the older kids always enjoy. The photo opportunities with the Safari Camp party can be outstanding. There are just so many fun ways that you can piece together photos for the kids. You can purchase stand up figures like tigers & gorillas and the guests love it.

Of course the Summer Camp event kind of gives you the opportunity to do all kinds of different things. Since many children dont get to go to a summer camp they really love finding out about it. You can need a dance, play or sit down around the campfire and consume smores. The best scary stories seem to always come from a summer camp event.

Rocky Mountain camp parties are slightly more unique. Although you wont decorate quite so much unless you go with a western theme, youll need the opportunity to offer some special activities, like gemstone panning & diamond mining. Even grownups like to pan for gemstones!

Whichever theme you prefer, just use your imagination and a little creativity and your party will be the talk of the town for a long long time!
