• Allocate space for the "creative zone", where guests will be asked to make minions of their own;
• Make a surprise ball in the form of the protagonist.

Treats

Birthday in the style of "Minions" involves active outdoor games. Children simply will not have time to sit at the table, trying culinary delights. Therefore, treats should be simple and easy to use without using cutlery. For example, we offer such dishes for children's festive table :

• Chicken or meat shish kebabs;
• Cheese snacks on skewers;
• Vegetable salads in tartlets;
• Vegetable fondue with warm cheese.

A separate food-zone of the holiday is "kendi bar". It is recommended to demonstrate it after the guests have already refreshed themselves with the main dishes. After that, everyone who wishes during the whole holiday can independently treat themselves to sweets.

Games and Entertainment

How to organize a birthday in the style of minions? The holiday scenario should include many games, competitions and surprises. Usually an entertaining program of this kind is designed for 7-10 participants at the age from 4 to 7 years. It is recommended not to spend more than an hour playing games, after which it is possible to offer children independent communication in the "game" or "creative zone".

Today, a popular form of celebration is the quest. This is a kind of story game in which you have to go through many different tests to achieve a specific goal.
