Looking for fun birthday ideas? Make each and every family member feel special on their birthday with these Family Birthday Celebrations. These creative kids birthday ideas might just become your family’s new favorite traditions!

Family Birthday Celebrations

Family Birthday Celebrations

Our family used to have more elaborate birthday celebrations for our kids. As the years have gone by and our family headcount has gone up, the kids’ birthday celebrations have become more simplified. Our girls were 7 and 8 when their younger brother came and 8 and 9 when their additional brothers (twins) came, so it was hard to give them the celebration they deserved with all the craziness going on. That being said, there were years that it was easy (and affordable) to throw them a kids birthday party with friends. They have gotten older, and less interested, and I have been researching fun birthday ideas to make them feel loved at home without spending hundreds of dollars.

I’ve rounded up the best fun birthday ideas below to make your younger kids, your teens, or even your spouse feel special on their big day!

Make sure you get all the way to the bottom of this post — we have a really creative away for you to pay it forward and for you to give back to others each and every birthday! Such a wonderful lesson for your kids. Plus, it comes with a free printable!
