Rainbow Birthday Party Ideas

A rainbow birthday party is fun for any age but perfect for an adorable 1st birthday party. And great for boys and girls!

I think this is one of my all time favorite birthday party theme ideas. The bright colors are so fun, so perfect for a young child and it’s perfect for either spunky little boys or sweet little girls. It’s easy to find fun foods that fit the theme, bright and attractive decorations, and even crafts for the kids. Here I’ve compiled some of my favorite ideas to make your sweet little one’s birthday a huge success.

Following are more ideas to make your rainbow party colorful and perfect. I’ve covered decorations, food (duh), crafts, favors, supplies and presents. Read on to the bottom to enter to win a fun toy that would make any toddler’s day.
