Backward Birthday Party

Dressing up is always fun to do, putting a twist on dressing up makes it more fun especially when you add it to a Birthday Party.

Have the children come to the party wearing their clothes backwards for this fun Backward Birthday Party

Backward Birthday Party Food Idea

Have the kids drink their drink from a bowl, and eat their food out of a cup. An easy thing to eat out of a cup would be something such as a corn dog.

Backward Birthday Party Games

Split the children into two teams and have them do relay races while running backwards.

The Egg Run
Have the members of each team take turns running backwards from one place to another and back balancing an egg on a spoon. The first team done, using the least amount of eggs, wins. (Hint: Have many eggs for this relay)

The Water Run
With your teams have each person take turns running backward holding a cup of water, when they reach the other side, have them dump their water into a bucket and run back backwards. The team with the most water in their bucket wins.

Backward Three Legged Race
Since this is a backwards party have your three legged race running backwards.

Backwards Birthday Party Pinata

You could do a Pinata in a backwards different way. Have many strings coming from the Pinata, let each child pull on a string. Let only one open a door on the pinata to let the goodies fall out. You may have to help shake the goodies out.

Backward Birthday Cake

Bake a cake in any pan you wish. Make sure your flour your pan very well. Take the cake out of the pan and let it cool. Frost the top and sides of the cake.

Then put your serving platter or plate on top of the cake and turn it upside down. Use decorating gel to write Happy Birthday (Your Child's Name) Mix up the words to make them backward, like (Your child's name) Birthday Happy.

You may also want to stick a lot more or a lot fewer candles than your child's current age to make things even more backward.
