Shark Birthday Party

If you have young kids you’re probably familiar with Baby Shark. You know, the sweet little video with an incredibly annoying song that you can’t stop singing?

Well my 3 year old loves it and can often be heard singing “do-do-do-do-do” while she’s playing. When I got a message the other day asking about a Shark Party I knew I had to add it to my list of new themes for the year, because I’m sure there must be many other little boys and girls who would love it for their birthdays!

I always love designing new themes, but this Shark Party was particularly fun! I made a few sketches before I was happy with my kid-friendly shark and it all came easily together after that.

My favorite details would have to be the cake topper with the shark and fish characters, and the cupcake wrappers with a shark fin outline. And I absolutely love the fun and bright colour scheme!

To decorate this table I started by hanging crepe paper streamers on the wall behind it. I twisted them and used painter’s tape at the top and bottom to hold them in place. Then I hung the banner on top.

I placed the cake on top of an inverted fruit bowl for height with the cupcakes in front. Then I worked my way up to the other end of the table, adding more cupcakes, drink bottles, party favor bags and a couple more treats in yellow and blue baskets at the front. I’m so happy with how it all looks together, it may seem like a lot of work but it was actually so quick and easy to put together with just a few printables.

The shark party pack also includes a colouring page to be used as an activity for the party or as a gift for guests to take home.
