There's an age at which children become obsessed with geography. Their ability to rattle out countries and capitals can sometimes make you think your kid is a savant. An Around the world theme party is perfect if your child is going through that phase, or even otherwise.

Party Ideas and Themes for kidsmocomi.com/fun/party-ideas-themes/

The great thing about an Around the world party is that you can adapt it for any venue. Flags have so many dif-ferent colours so start there. Strings of maps make for great wall decora-tion.

Hang a world map somewhere visible.

You could pick a country and build your decoration around it. For exam-ple chinese or japanese paper lanters, a mexican pinata, or an Indian shami-yana

Split the kids into groups and have them make up a country of their own with a national anthem and flag. Have them describe what would be a major feature of their country. You'll need colour pencils and paper to do this. Have some tape and a space ready to hang up the flags of these fantasy cou-tries.
