Harley Davidson Birthday Party

Invitations:

o Make them look like motorcycles,

o Use wording that says “Take a ride on the wild side, the birthday boy is turning one.



Menu: (Foods that will go with a bike rally)

o Burgers

o Smoked sausage

o Potato salad

o Baked beans, etc.

Drinks:

o serve root beer in beer mugs (or substitute with other drinks), if the kids don’t like root beer

Cake:

o Get someone to make a cake and put a road map on it with a toy motorcycle on it.

Decorations:

o Get recycled road maps and use to make the table clothes for each table, get a bandana to put in a diamond shape in the middle of each table

o Use toy motorcycles to put on each table

o Decorations and Goody bag items can come from Orientaltrading.com they have all kinds of party supplies needed for a motorcycle theme party, as well as the goody bags and fillers.



Activities:

• Paint unfinished motorcycles- Get from Orientaltrading.com

• See if you can find a piñata that looks like a motorcycle

• Motorcycle toss (Hot Potato)

o Have the kids sit in a circle and pass a toy motorcycle around to music, when the music stops the child holding the motorcycle wins a prize

• Motorcycle freeze dance game

o Draw or use clip art and print motorcycles to make a circle on the floor

o Make one that’s a different color

o Have the kids stand in a circle

o Play music examples: "bad to the bone", "2-lane blacktop" etc.

o The kids will go around the circle

o When the music stops the one who lands on the colored motorcycle wins a prize

• Motorcycle dude and chick dress- up relay

o Get two sets of biker’s clothes (leather vest, leather pants, bandana, sunglasses, etc.)

o Have the kids put the clothes on and the one who gets dressed first wins a prize

• Motorcycle scavenger hunt

o Before the party hide the different goody bag items all around the area

o Then during the party have the kids find them, this makes it more fun than just handing out the goody bags

• Motorcycle relay

o Get some old tires and make a relay course

o The one who finishes the relay first wins a prize

• Pin the wheels on the motorcycle (pin the tail on the donkey)

o Get someone to draw a motorcycle onto poster board and cut out wheels to pin on
