The Wednesday series, about Wednesday Addams, which has recently been released on Netflix, has not stopped gaining fans, so much so that a Wednesday themed birthday is already a claim of the most fanatical children of this character.
Wednesday Addams is a smart, sarcastic and slightly scary girl, as well as having a curious personality and a shocking physical appearance. This is what has made a lot of children get excited about the series and want to do their hair and dress like her.
That’s why we’re sure your little one would love nothing more than to celebrate her birthday in true Wednesday Addams style. And in this article we’ll tell you how to organise it so that it’s a success and a bit spooky.
Let’s get started!
Wednesday-themed invitations
There is no birthday party that can start without an invitation. That’s why the first thing to do is to prepare and send them out.
Start preparing them in advance with your son or daughter in a handmade way – it’s a perfect opportunity to spend time together and get your child involved in his or her Wednesday-themed birthday!
Follow this link to find a series of downloadable invitations including different invitations. All you have to do is fill them in with the date, time and venue – everyone will be looking forward to it!
As you will see, they are all in the colour range of the series: black and purple.
A scary decoration
The ideal decoration for a Wednesday themed birthday is not difficult to come up with.
Think of an arch full of black, lilac and black balloons, a neon sign saying “happy birthday” and in the background… the big Wednesday Addams in giant size with the number of years of the little one’s birthday.
Don’t forget to put the birthday boy or girl’s name in big letters on the floor and place a giant-sized “Thing”, the famous hand that the main character has as a pet.
And all over the place: spider webs, bats, black plates, black and white cupcakes, black and lilac curtains as well as little boxes with the image of the character that form part of the decoration and that the children can then take away as a souvenir filled with sweets.
A entertainer for Wednesday’s themed birthday party
No birthday without entertainers! So, don’t hesitate to hire an entertainer to entertain all the children who brings with her a long wig with two braids of black hair and dressed in Wednesday Addams’ clothes: a black dress with white collar and cuffs.
The little guests will have a lot of fun when they see the entertainer appear at their party! And no wonder, because after seeing her on screen, nothing will make them more excited than seeing her in the flesh – a dream come true!
Character costumes are used by monitors together with choreographies, gymkhanas and games, they entertain the little ones and fill any kind of children’s birthday party with fun and laughter.
Costumes to become Wednesday Addams
Don’t hesitate and think about a fancy dress costume as a dress code for the little guests. Costumes for birthdays are another sure bet to make children feel like the character they want to be for a day. So get yourself a bunch of accessories to make this day even more fun and memorable.
It’s super simple! Just get wigs with black braids, long black dresses, white tights and dark and spooky make-up: black lips are a must-have.
The children will have a great time dressing up together with the entertainers!
Dances Wednesday style
If there is one song that has gone viral on social networks in recent months it has been Lady Gaga’s ‘Bloody Mary’, where users have not stopped dancing to it with the original choreography of the series.
So, after being dressed up as the character, Wednesday’s themed birthday party can’t miss this dance, it’s time to teach the steps to all the guests! Then it’s time to perform the choreography in front of the cameras– we’re sure it will get hundreds of views!
A spooky piñata full of sweets
Thinking of having a piñata at your child’s Wednesday themed birthday party? It’s something that kids usually love as they have a blast trying to break it with sticks to get the sweets and surprises inside to fall out.
It’s a fun and easy idea, as all you have to do is get a fun “Thing” hand like Wednesday’s mascot in lilac on a black and white background. Another option is to get one with the image of Wednesday and her long black braids.
Many piñatas have a little ribbon to pull on so that the surprises fall out without the need to bang on it – for the smallest children’s birthday parties!
A cake to “lick your hand”
The Wednesday themed birthday party cake could not be missing from the birthday party, and it can’t be any other cake than several tiers filled with lilac and black fondant, with lots of white custard on top.
You can also decorate it with silhouettes of bats, spider webs or the castle in which the character lives.
No Wednesday themed birthday without cake!
