It’s twice the fun at the Melissa & Doug Double-Sided Wooden Star Diner! This sturdy, double-sided wooden play space inspires kids cook and serve from the kitchen side, and order and enjoy a meal on the booth side. The kitchen, with an extra-large oven, realistic burners and dials, a two-shelf refrigerator, and plenty of counter space has fun details like a drink dispenser and milkshake maker with mixing rod that can be pushed up and down. At the two-seat booth, customers three and older can spin the jukebox dial to choose their favorite type of music, then drop the included coin in the slot – and the coin lands in a collection tray on the other side!

You can get it for just $101.24 when you clip the coupon (was $279.99)!

This sale price was accurate as of 10/18/2022 12:40 PM ET. Amazon prices are subject to change.

Christmas parties are a great way to be festive & get in the holiday spirit. Here are some of the best kids Christmas party ideas including games, music and food. Download and print the free Christmas party printables too.

Christmas Party Ideas for KIds

Christmas is a time for family, friends, and fun. It’s also a time for giving, and what could be more fun than throwing a Christmas for the tiny people we love? But sometimes it can be hard to come up with ideas for a Christmas party for kids. If you’re stuck for party ideas, don’t worry, I’ve got you covered! I’ve put together a list of some great Christmas party ideas for kids, so you can make this holiday season extra special.

How do you make Christmas fun for kids?

The winter holiday season is great because there typically are a number of fun activities for kids in December. Create special memories by incorporating fun activities into your every day (or every weekend) calendar. This can be outdoor activities like building a DIY igloo or indoor activities like putting together gifts for your neighbors.

If you are looking for some fun Christmas ideas for the kids, try some of these ideas.

  • Host a Cookie Exchange
  • Create a Holiday Family Bucket List
  • Bake a Cake for Jesus
  • Try a New Christmas Tradition
  • Have a Gift Exchange
  • Decorate the Christmas Tree
  • Create fun Christmas Crafts
  • Write and Visit Santa
  • Have Fun Outdoors
  • Throw a Kids Christmas Party

The most important thing is to make the activity memorable. Events are most remember when they are just a little bit out of the ordinary. Not activity you do every day. Put down the electronics and everyone immerse themselves in the Christmas activity.

In this blog post, we will focus on ideas for a Kids Christmas Party. Many of these fun activities can be incorporated as entertainment.

Hosting the Perfect Kids Christmas Party

Take a deep breath. If you suffer from anxiety at the idea of having a number of people in the home, remember the perfect kids party doesn’t have a set number of party guests. Party guests can be each of your children inviting one friend. Or go large and invite the entire youth group or neighborhood.

kids Christmas party ideas

Whatever your party size, there are plenty of fun ways to enjoy a kids Christmas party. Keep it simple by planning ahead. Get together a theme, activities and entertainment and a list of fun foods to make. Cooking and baking with the kids not only bring fun food to the event, but it provides a number of holiday activities to do with the kids while prepping for the big day.

Choose a Theme

One of the best ways to make sure your party is extra fun is to choose a theme. This will help you plan the decorations, games, and activities and give the kids something to get excited about. Some great Christmas party themes for kids include ‘Ugly Christmas sweaters’, ‘Winter Wonderland,’ ‘Santa’s Workshop’, or ‘A Night at the North Pole.’

Plan Fun Activities

No party is complete without some fun activities! Why not plan some Christmas-themed games or craft activities to keep the kids entertained? Some great ideas include decorating gingerbread houses, making Christmas cards, or wrapping presents. You can even host a White Elephant Gift Exchange or incorporate a few Christmas games.

Set up a Delicious Feast

No party is complete without food! To make sure the kids are well-fed, set up a buffet of their favorite snacks and treats. These don’t have to be hard, in fact easy Christmas snacks for school party allow you to focus on other areas of the party.  For a festive touch, you could also include some Christmas-themed foods such as candy canes or gingerbread men.

kids Christmas party food ideas

Good food ideas for a kids Christmas party might include…

  • Hot Chocolate Station – This is especially great as it allows each person to personalize what they like in hot cocoa. Options include mini marshmallows, bits of peppermint candy, chocolate sprinkles, mint leaves and more.
  • Dessert Table and Cookie Table – Instead of a cookie exchange, ask party guests to bring a dessert or Christmas cookies to share. This creates less stress on the host for baking before the event.
  • Candy Bar – This is perfect for letting everyone choose their DIY snack or even make their own trail mix. It’s fitting to everyone’s taste buds, you can even use a candy bar as a resource for decorating gingerbread houses.

Children’s Christmas party food ideas are always a good idea! If you love a good food craft, check out more of these Christmas party food options. These Christmas finger food recipes are perfect for preparing ahead or making at the party as a fun Christmas activity.

Play Some Festive Music

A fun way to get everyone in the Christmas spirit is to play some festive Christmas music in the background. This will help to create a magical atmosphere and get everyone dancing along! You can incorporate classics, pop or even Christmas carols. If you can handle it,  even gather instruments and have preschoolers or younger kids make their own festive tunes for the party.

So how do you entertain kids at a Christmas party?
