Whether planning a child's birthday party or a bon voyage party for someone taking an exotic vacation, a jungle-themed party is an excellent choice. Use your creativity and imagination to decorate for your jungle-themed party. Create a jungle-like atmosphere that will appeal to the senses by incorporating the sights and the sounds of the jungle. Your party will be a hit with all your guests when you create a realistic-looking jungle for your party.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Create a jungle-themed centerpiece. A cake decorated with jungle animals and plants always makes a good centerpiece. You can make a flower arrangement from exotic plants and flowers. Add small stuffed jungle animals to the flower arrangement.

  2. Step 2

    Add a zip line. Build a simple zip line to hang up across the room. You can even add a stuffed monkey to make it look as if it is gliding above the jungle canopy. Drape vines off the zip line.

  3. Step 3

    Add jungle plants. Hang jungle vines from the ceiling and drape them down the walls. Add extra plants and vines around the doorway into the room where the party will be held. Add exotic flowers, fresh or silk, around the room.

  4. Step 4

    Incorporate jungle sounds. Jungle sounds will add to the ambience of your jungle party theme. Play tapes of waterfalls or animal sounds. You can create your own waterfall tape or CD by recording a running shower. Make several separate recordings of the shower and then combine those recordings together to make the sound more realistic.

  5. Step 5

    Add jungle animals. Place stuffed animals or cardboard cutouts of jungle animals among the jungle plants. Make them appear to be peeping out from the plants. Attach monkeys, jaguars, insects and the like to furniture, walls and doorways.
