3. OUTDOOR MOVIE: 

A backyard movie is a great idea for an at home socially distanced kids birthday party. Set up a sheet and project a movie on to it. Set out blankets safely spaced apart and buy glow sticks and serve snacks such as popcorn in individual bowls to snack on during the movie.

Maybe have the kids stuff a Par-T-Pet before the movie begins and tuck them into their very own sleeping bag they can decorate, to watch the movie with them.

Have a driveway dance!  

Have kids draw a social distance bubble on the driveway with sidewalk chalk and  begin to play music and have a mini dance in their zone. At the end of the party  serve ice cream in individual cones for the kids to cool down with.
