A great party idea for girls is a flower arranging. Designed for small groups of kids and tweens, these classes allow your little one to embrace nature and get creative with colour. Your tween will love playing with different textures of flowers and foliage including bunny tail grass, kangaroo paws, Australian natives and more. Their knowledgeable floristry teacher will also instruct them on how to use the colour wheel, how to understand texture and how to layer flowers in the most effective structure. It's a wonderful way to get kids to play with various fresh and seasonal flowers while celebrating their birthdays.

Master circus tricks with these fun birthday activities

Step right up! Juggling balls, foot sacks (or ‘hackysacks’) and hula hoop circus activities are easy to find and also fun for tweens if they’ve never tried them before. Balls can be placed in a basket in your backyard or public park, while the hoops can be strewn around the garden or your chosen grassy spot so all the kids can have a try when they feel like it. One of the most fun and interactive party ideas for 10-year-olds in Sydney is to hire an experienced circus performer to teach a fun workshop at your party. Increased self-esteem, body awareness, concentration, coordination and balance are just some of the aspects of your tween’s wellbeing that will cater for during these sorts of activities for kids. Most of all, there’ll be laughter and fun (and the parents might want to join in too!)
