American Idol Birthday Party Ideas

American Idol is a hugely popular show that allows various pop star wannabes to follow their dreams and become the next American Idol. Of course, most fall flat on their faces and for some that is all part of the fun of watching the show. However, there are a few individuals who achieve their dreams of pop stardom on the show, and have created some of the best music of the 21st century.

Your children most likely watch the show, and they are going to start emulating the pop stars they see. As well, they are going to come to you and ask for an American Idol themed birthday party, so it is good idea to be prepared. Thankfully, through some imagination and these party ideas, it will be easy to be prepared.

Make an Outfit

Some of the people that audition on American Idol are remembered for what they wear. So, give the kids a paper bag to wear over their clothes, and then let them put various pieces of flair on it to make it unique. Let them paint it, put streamers on it, and anything else they can think of to make them stand out.

Audition Time

The biggest part of American Idol is the auditions, so if you are going to have an American Idol themed birthday party, then you are going to need to have auditions. However, there is a big difference between your auditions at the birthday party, and the auditions on the actual show. You have to be a lot nicer than Simon is, because you do not want the kids crying because you are mean. So give them goofy answers like 'It was good, but I think if you did it in a deep voice it would be better.' Once the kids do it in a deeper voice, make them go deeper and deeper in their voice until they are giggling about how it sounds.

Happy Birthday

Once the kids have all auditioned, tell them you are going to record a CD now for them. Then, have all the kids, including the birthday boy or girl, sing Happy Birthday. Using just a computer and recorder, you can easily record it and burn it onto a few CDs for the kids. If you have a color printer, you can even make a label that features all of them auditioning. If you want to go the extra mile, put pictures of them auditioning on the CD for them.

At some point, you can expect your children to ask for an American Idol themed birthday party. It may seem like a daunting task, and it is unlikely you will get Simon Cowell out to the birthday party, so you need to use your imagination. However, if you also use these party ideas, you can create a wonderful birthday party for your children.
