Four Birthday Party Ideas for Identical Twins: Ages 8-13

Trying to think of unique birthday party ideas for one child can be difficult, to do so with two can be an impossible feat. With more and more couples giving birth to twins, birthday parties can be an exciting and stressful event. Here is four birthday party ideas for identical twins.

#1 Two for One Party/Buy one Get one Free Supermarket Theme Party

The first birthday party idea for identical twins is a buy one, get one free supermarket theme party. Here are some more ideas to make the party successful and fun for children. First, think about semi- decorating the house like a supermarket, make a replica of some supermarket shelves, and have goody bags instead of food stacked on them. Second, have a buffet, supermarket style, where the kids can pick from an assortment of sliced and packaged sandwiches, pizza, fruit, and juice. There also could be a check out stand. The cake can be made to look like a cash register. As for party games, one would be for children to name the price of items found in a supermarket as well as other math games. Prizes for the party games could be made up coupons, which can used to get an extra goody bag, a free gift card, or small bag of junk food to take home.

#2 Deju Va Theme Party

My second idea for a birthday party for identical twins is a deju va party- a feeling of having been someplace or having met someone before. At this party there can be two, one-layer birthday cakes. Games can include, taking two identical objects, and then letting the children figure out the differences between the two. There also could be a twin's trivia game with questions like, how many twins are born in the United States per year? Name three famous pair of twins?

#3 Favorite Barbie or G.I Joe Doll Theme Party
