A Sample Itinerary for a Fun-Filled Birthday Party with 20 Kids
Here’s a sample itinerary for a party at THE NAMKHAN, complete with games, food, crafts, and a cozy bonfire to end the day. This program is designed to provide kids with an entire afternoon of entertainment while giving parents a chance to relax and enjoy the festivities.
Itinerary
1:00 PM – Arrival and Welcome Activities
As guests start to arrive, we kick off the fun with a welcome station where each child receives a colorful party hat, wristband, and their choice of face painting design. This lets kids ease into the celebration while getting ready for the activities ahead. Parents can settle into our comfortable lounge seating nearby, which offers a clear view of the festivities.
1:30 PM – Treasure Hunt Adventure Begins
The excitement begins with a treasure hunt! Kids are split into small teams and given the first clue to start their adventure around our sandbank, discovering hidden “treasures” that lead them closer to a big prize. This activity encourages teamwork, curiosity, and a sense of exploration, setting a fun and active tone for the party.
2:15 PM – Splash Zone and Water Games
After the treasure hunt, it’s time to cool down with water games. In our designated splash zone, kids participate in water balloon tosses, bucket relays, and a friendly water pistol showdown. These activities let the children burn off energy while staying cool, and the sandbank’s riverside location offers the perfect backdrop for a safe and enjoyable splash session.
3:00 PM – Snack Break with Tasty Birthday Treats
All that fun calls for a snack break! Our kids’ menu includes mini sandwiches, fresh fruit skewers, veggie sticks, and a variety of juices. At this point, it’s time for the birthday cake! With options for themed cakes to match your child’s interests, we make the cake-cutting moment extra special, with everyone gathering around to sing “Happy Birthday” before diving into the treats.
3:30 PM – Group Games: Sack Races, Tug-of-War, and Relay Races
Refueled and re-energized, the kids jump back into the fun with classic group games. We set up a series of interactive games, including sack races, tug-of-war, and relay races, all organized with safety in mind. These games are tailored for the group’s age range, with prizes for winners and lots of laughs along the way. The open sandbank space allows the kids to enjoy these activities freely and safely.
4:30 PM – Creative Craft Station
To wind down after the active games, we bring everyone to the craft station. Here, kids can get creative by decorating picture frames, making friendship bracelets, or designing colorful sand art. This allows them to take home a personalized memento of the day, giving them a quiet, relaxing break from the high-energy activities.
5:00 PM – Family BBQ Dinner and Bonfire
As evening falls, we invite everyone to gather around for a family-style BBQ dinner. Our catering team prepares a delicious spread with options for both kids and adults, featuring mini burgers, grilled hot dogs, veggie skewers, and sides. For parents, we offer grilled seafood and more sophisticated options to enjoy as they unwind by the river.
When dinner winds down, we light a cozy bonfire where kids can roast marshmallows. This is often a highlight of the evening as they gather around the fire, telling stories and enjoying a sweet treat under the evening sky. It’s a relaxing, heartwarming end to a fantastic day.
6:00 PM – Farewell and Goodie Bags
As the party wraps up, each child receives a goodie bag with small treats, souvenirs, and a thank-you gift to remember the day by. Parents often linger a little longer, sharing stories and enjoying the riverside ambiance before heading home. By the end, the kids leave with smiles and great memories made by the Namkhan River.
