Frozen has one of the best soundtracks in Disney history, so karaoke is a definite party activity for this celebration. Guests of all ages can belt out the lyrics to “Let It Go,” “Love Is an Open Door,” and the rest of the movie song list.

Do you want to build a snowman? If there isn’t snow outside during the party, this melting snowman craft is a fitting party activity for the kiddos. Using glue, shaving cream, and flour, guests can make their own melting snowmen and decorate it with glitter, googly eyes, and a paper top hat. Visit Teaching Mama for more instructions on this snowman craft.
Ice Activities

If there isn’t a frozen lake near the party venue, no need to worry. Invite party guests to your local ice rink for a day of ice skating, hockey, and other fun games. If you want to keep the festivities at home, Amazon has synthetic ice rinks that are the perfect addition to your backyard. Invite guests to bring their skates for a VIP ice rink experience.
Rock Candy

Using just sugar, water, and flavoring, party goers will be able to make their own icicle looking rock candy.

That’s what I was gonna say! Sandwiches make one of the best party foods because they are easy to make or order ahead of time. Pick up a variety of grinders from your local deli or build your kiddos’ favorite combinations in the kitchen.
Veggie Platter

A veggie platter of carrots, broccoli, and anything else a reindeer would eat makes a great party appetizer. Kids might not want to eat carrots, but try labeling them as “Olaf’s nose” to fit the party theme. Get creative with the names for an additional Frozen party idea.
Chocolate

If there was one sweet treat Anna and Elsa loved, it was chocolate. Whip up your favorite brownie recipe, chocolate chip cookies, or truffles for a princess approved dessert option. If you really want to wow guests, book a chocolate fountain that will satisfy everyone’s sweet tooth.
Frozen Cupcakes

You can never go wrong with cupcakes for a birthday party. Many times, a large birthday party cake ends up getting wasted, so cupcakes allow the ideal handheld serving size. Get creative with the different flavors and cake decorations to create a delicious dessert.
If you do choose to serve a traditional birthday cake, check out this adorable Frozen cake topper from Etsy!
Snow Cones

Snow cones make the perfect Frozen party food—for obvious reasons! Anyone can buy a snow cone machine and ice to make them themselves, but we recommend booking a food cart in your area to serve them. Guests will enjoy the excitement of choosing a flavor and watching their frozen treat made right in front of their eyes.
Yoohoo

"Yoohoo! Big summer blow out!" If you can’t find bottles of Yoo-hoo for this party, chocolate milk will work just as well. This detail is the perfect way to recreate one of the most famous lines from the movie.
Frozen Cocktail

The adults in attendance deserve to get in on the party festivities too! Mix up your favorite cocktails with Blue Curaçao and a sugar rim to create a Frozen inspired adult drink option. Try this Jack Frost cocktail or a Blue Lagoon for definite crowd pleasers.

Icicle lights are a necessary Frozen party decoration that need to be featured throughout the venue. Add an extra touch of winter time magic around doorways, railings, and perimeters of rooms to create ambient lighting.

What kid doesn’t love balloons? Another fun Frozen birthday party idea is to easily incorporate this event staple into the decor. Arrange different shades of blue, purple, and white balloons together to create an enchanting garland accent. If you don’t know where to start, find an event planner near you that specializes in balloon decor.
Ice Sculptures
