Under the Sea Birthday Party

Created January 10, 2017

Splish splash, it’s a birthday bash! Make it a memorable day of under-the-sea adventures for your child and little friends. The cake, decorations and activities are oh-so-easy and sure to add waves of fun!

Under-the-Sea Eats

Give your little fishies something to munch on!

Little Fish Fruit Sandwiches

So adorable and healthy too! When the kids need something to chow on, present a tray of these fish-shaped sandwiches made out of apple slices topped with cream cheese, strawberries, grapes, oranges and blueberries!

Under-the-Sea Snack Mix

Every deep-sea fisher needs a snack for the journey ahead. This one includes delicious Chex™ Cereal, popcorn, pretzels, peanuts, Betty Crocker™ frosting, blue coarse sugar, and gummy fish and worm candies. Definitely a sweet snack all will enjoy!

Blue Fish Kiddie Cocktails

A taste of the ocean is a lot yummier when you use blue colored punch! Use a clear fish bowl to house the kiddie cocktail and paint the bowl with an under-the-sea design using white chocolate and food coloring. Use your preferred choice of flavored juice mix, but find a flavor that’s blue, like berry.

Big Fish Cake and Little Fish Cupcakes

You can make the ultimate under-the-sea cake using Betty Crocker™ cake mix and delicious décor by turning it into a colorful fish (and mini fish cupcakes) that will capture the attention of all partygoers!

Gone Fishin’ Activity

Remember this gem as a kid? The excitement lives on! Hang a string between some trees outside or somewhere in your house. Then, attach a blue sheet with two clothespins to make the “sea.” Download the colorful fishies to pin or tape onto the sheet. For a fishing pole, you can buy wooden dowel and affix a clothespin to it. Each kid will get to cast their line into the sea. Have an adult stand on the other side of the sheet (watch your head!) and clip a prize like candy, coloring books, bubbles or whatever else floats their boat.

Party Favors

We all know how much kids love party favors! Since they’ll be collecting prizes during the Gone Fishin’ activity, they’ll already have something to go home with. On top of that, have these yummy fish cookies baked and bagged for the road. Seal with a ribbon and a cute, printable little sticker or tag.
