This is a great way for older kids and grown-ups at the party to blow off some steam. Just make sure to lay down some ground rules on safety beforehand so that no one takes a pool noodle to the face.

9. Go hunting on an undersea treasure quest

“Let’s go hunt! Do.Do.Do.Do.Do.Do…” Just like some of the final lyrics in the Baby Shark song, try sending your kids on a scavenger hunt for sunken treasure. Feel free to get creative hiding aquatic-themed clues and hints all over your event venue! One by one, your little predators will zero in on the grand prize. This could be anything from a plastic treasure chest filled with goodie bags to your little one’s birthday cake decorated with the full baby shark family. 

10. Visit the aquarium and see a real shark family 

Last but not least, our final baby shark party idea encourages some serious undersea exploration. Try visiting your local aquarium to give your little one a good look at the real aquatic creatures that inspired the baby shark song.

Plenty of aquariums across the country offer special discounts or even free entry for visitors on their birthdays.
