Independence Day Party Ideas

• Hand out the invitations a week before on little American flags.
• Instruct that everybody has to come dressed in red, white and blue.
• Have some face paints so the kids can have the American flag painted on their faces.
• You can line the patio or walk up to your house with small American flags.
• Make sure you have a large flag for your wall outside.
• Fireworks are a must if your party is to run into the night. Make sure they are red, white and blue ones.
• Get a few squirt guns. Have a red team and a blue team where each team gets to squirt red and blue water on the opposition.
• The food must of course be all American. Start off with water mellon. You can have a seed-spitting contest!
• The best option for food is BBQ food! Burgers, suasages, chicken wings, short ribs etc.
• Bake a cake, use strawberries and blueberries for the stars and stripes. Remember, there were only 13 original states.
