Most children’s ideal birthday party is one filled with excitement, with games and activities galore. Their décor preferences are much the same. Children appreciate dazzling decorations that can visually stimulate them and lift the mood of their celebration.

A simple way to fulfil this is by making good use of balloon decorations. Here are some of the most popular types of balloons, and how they can make your child’s birthday a memorable one.

Classic latex balloons

The iconic round latex balloons have been a staple in celebrations for at least a century. These are perfect for the pickier children who have a clear idea of what kind of decorations they want. If you can think of a colour or design pattern, there’s almost certainly a balloon for that.

Their diverse colour palettes also allow for a lot of mixing and matching. By arranging balloons with complementary colours together, you create a display with much more depth. Bright and cheery colours are best for children’s parties. Watch your child’s face light up when they see a room filled with balloons of all their favourite colours! 

Bubble balloons

These prominent balloons can serve as a unique personalised gift all by itself. In our store, they come in at a staggering 24 inches (about 61cm) or 36 inches (about 91cm). It’s plain to see that these lavish balloons are not to be trifled with.

They can be customised according to your child’s preferences, with well-wishes and their name printed on the front in a beautiful font. You can also have several smaller balloons adorning the inside of the bubble balloon to make the display even more vibrant.

For a truly unforgettable experience, some balloon shops in Singapore have an enticing surprise box option. The balloon is placed in an extravagantly decorated box, where the interior is decked out with embellishments of your choice. There can even be lights scattered around the inside to brighten your child’s special day, literally!

Themed balloons

Every child has their favourite character, whether it be a superhero or Disney princess. Some could also be more into cute creatures like jungle animals or unicorns. In any case, foil balloons have them covered.

They come in a variety of customised shapes which fit the character to a T. The high-quality ones, especially, will make any child go “wow”. And with the diverse array of character foil balloons around, you will have no trouble finding a balloon that will put a smile on your child’s face.

As for those with no particular character preferences, don’t worry, there’s something for them too. More general birthday-themed balloons may do the trick. These mostly have gorgeously designed “Happy Birthday” messages printed over a stylish background. While not as personalised, children will certainly appreciate the eye-catching visuals.

Deflated balloons

It may seem odd to get deflated latex balloons alongside the decorative helium balloons, but there are a few practical reasons to do so. For starters, it’s always good to have a backup in case any of the balloon decorations are popped inadvertently.

Other than that, deflated balloons can also be filled with air instead of helium, which makes them appropriate to use for activities. A set of durable balloons from a reliable party shop can keep children entertained for hours on end.

While they can easily make their own fun, you can help them along as well. Feel free to organise balloon-based party games or some creative balloon arts and crafts sessions for the kids!
