Sponge Bob Square Pants is one of the more popular animated children's programs on television, so much so that it--like other popular kids' shows--is a frequent choice for birthday party themes. Fortunately, by adhering to a few simple steps, you can easily put together a Sponge Bob-themed birthday party for your child.

    Decorations

  1. If you're looking to purchase Sponge Bob party decorations, you can do so by visiting any party supply store in your area, such as Party City. Look in the Yellow Pages for more party stores that feature plates, streamers, tablecloths and other supplies.

    For those who want to make their own decorations, there are a few simple ways to provide a Sponge Bob party theme on a small budget. For starters, fill up blue helium balloons and let them fly to the top of the ceiling. This can give the appearance of living under water, as Sponge Bob does. Also, making any kind of cut-outs pertaining to pineapples or shells--both featured prominently in the television show--will add some flavor to your party. Speaking of which, you can also place sand and shells on top of a blue tablecloth to add to the "sea" theme.
  2. Activities and Dress

  3. You can also participate in many party activities in keeping with a Sponge Bob theme. For instance, have someone paint children's faces with Sponge Bob characters, or have guests dress up as characters from the show.
  4. Food

  5. Food is an important part of any birthday party, and you can tailor your menu to a Sponge Bob theme. For example, you can make Krabby patties (from the television show) by having guests build their burgers with buns, patties, cheese, mayo and other condiments. You can also try other menu items from Mr. Krabb's (the restaurant in the TV show), such as hot dogs, pineapple, fruit salad, peanut butter and jelly(fish) sandwiches, and rice krispie treats cut in the shape of starfish.
  6. Games

  7. You can also play a number of Sponge Bob-themed games, including having children hit a Sponge Bob pinata, playing Pin the Pants on Sponge Bob (a version of Pin the Tail on the Donkey), and Jellyfish Tag (the person who is "it," makes a zapping noise when tagging people).
