Under The Sea Birthday Party Ideas

Party Decoration Ideas

To make the party look like it is under the sea buy plastic or paper fish and hang them around the party room.  You can attach them to fishing line and hang them from the ceiling to make it look like they are swimming, or simply attach them to the strings of helium balloons that are place on the ceiling.  Sand and shells can be placed on party tables along with pieces of coral, treasure chests and plastic fish.  Treasure chests and large conch shells can be used to hold snack foods.

Under the Sea Treasure 
Kids dig through sand to find Under the Sea treasures.  You will need a small plastic wading pool filled with sand and lots of Sea themed items like polished rocks, shells, jewelry, coins and wrapped candy.  Give each child a plastic shovel and pail with their name on it and let them dig through the sand to find the treasure.  When they find something they can place it in their sand pail.
