Bat Theme Halloween Party Ideas

For a kids' Halloween party that's frightfully fun and not overdone, try going with a bat theme. Halloween is probably one of my favorite times of the year. It's a holiday that inspires pure fun in people of all ages and some really amazing parties.

When I started to plan for this year's Halloween party, I found that I was encountering the same tired Halloween invitations at every store I walked into. Not wanting to settle on the same old pumpkin or witch theme again I decided I had to do some digging to get a more one-of-a-kind Halloween invitations.

My search turned up this frightfully fun and fantastic looking Halloween invitation from Pear Tree Greetings. Their Bat Eyes Beware scary Halloween party invitations were the perfect balance of spooky and special that I was looking for.

It turned out, too, that the invitation offered a ton of inspiration for all the other party elements I was planning. This Halloween celebration was all about the kids before they headed out to trick-or-treat. I wanted to do something simple in preparation, not in look, and I was able to using the design Pear Tree had as a foundation.

The Halloween party this year turned out to be so unique, spooky and a hit with the boys, the girls and their parents, too! From fang embellished cupcakes to vampire mocktails to bat decorations, the entire party was a hit with all my guests, parents included!
