Little Mermaid Theme Party Ideas

Disney Princess party themes are very popular for kids' birthdays and watch parties and can be applied to other events! We're specifically going to share tips and tricks for hosting the best Little Mermaid-themed party. Find ideas for decorations, party food, music, and more!

 

Little Mermaid Music

Poolside Music

If you're hosting The Little Mermaid party, you probably know that the entire movie soundtrack is filled with hits. You can pop in either the original animated Little Mermaid music, and there's also the live-action movie soundtrack too. Of course, if you want background music without lyrics, find relaxing beach music or ocean sounds with calming music.

 

Little Mermaid Decorations

Mermaid Party Decorations

You can go as simple or as detailed as you want when decorating for a Little Mermaid party. Use bunches of balloons of various sizes to mimic bubbles, sprinkle chunky sequin glitter for scales, and you can even use bouquets of flowers that look like coral! If you want to go all-out, find balloons and piñatas resembling ocean creatures. Also, most hobby and craft stores will have bags of seashells, which you can use for decoration. (Although, if you live near a beach, you can also get seashells for free!)

 

Little Mermaid Party Favors

Mermaid Party Favors

Speaking of seashells, you can also use them to decorate your party favors! Fill little jars with round pearl candies or some other fun snack or trinket. Put a seashell on top with a bow for decoration, and you're done! If you're hoping to try something else, you can make little bottles with messages hidden inside or small bottle necklaces filled with tiny seashells and sand. You're more than welcome to try other Little Mermaid party favor ideas if you're feeling creative!

  

Little Mermaid Food and Drinks

Mermaid Food

How many blue foods can you think of? Now, we're not going to say that everything has to be blue because The Little Mermaid is so bright and colorful, but these blue smoothie bowls with mermaid tail cookies are so cute. You can also make cupcakes and dipped pretzel rods with candy pearls, but don't forget to serve more than dessert! Get a colorful fruit tray—and fish sticks, shrimp, and sushi work well with underwater-themed foods. As for your drinks, think of tropical teas, cocktails, and juices, depending on your audience. Don't forget brightly-colored plates, napkins, and cups!

 

Little Mermaid Activities

Playing with Water Guns

When your party is mermaid-themed, expect there to be water! Break out the water guns and water balloons, or if you have a pool, play your favorite pool games. (Marco Polo and floating ring toss come to mind.) You can also take classic party games like Pin the Tail on the Donkey and adapt them for your Little Mermaid party. Pin the Tail on the Mermaid, anyone? Of course, if you're hosting a The Little Mermaid watch party, have your movie ready to play!

 

We hope you're ready for your next underwater adventure! Did you expect to see so many Little Mermaid costumes? Do you prefer the animated classic or the live-action movie? Feel free to share your thoughts with us in the comments. Even if Disney's The Little Mermaid isn't your favorite Disney movie, we have plenty of other Disney costumes that you might fall in love with.
