The party ideas that I've gotten so far are an Olympics birthday party and a Fear Factor birthday party. I also found a lot of party ideas for things that I was sure my stepson would not like. I'll make the final choice, since I am the one that does so much work on the birthday parties, but I will weigh heavily my stepson's input.

The party ideas for a sports or Olympic themed party are all very active. The party ideas for an extreme sports themed party might appeal to my stepson. I just don't know, though. I realize that they are growing up, but some kids this age still don't handle losing well and I do not want a child to have a melt down at the party.

I had to laugh out loud when I read the party ideas for a Fear Factor birthday party. My stepson and his friends would hate this kind of party. I do not think I could convince even one of them to bob for apples in a bucket with minnows swimming around or to enjoy a lively game of pass the cricket.

The party ideas for my daughter's party are pretty simple. I have decided that I will have a ladybug theme. There seem to be two types of ladybug party, a ladybug princess party and an insect related party. I actually like some of the ideas for both of them and may make some kind of a hybrid of them.

I know that I will definitely use one of the insect ladybug party ideas and frost cupcakes like ladybugs instead of one large cake. I think that it will be good for a two year old. I don't really have any playmates for my daughter, so her party is really just about family and adult friends. I want it to look very cute for her, but there will be no games to plan for this party.
