Celebrating your birthday party is special because you're the star of the movie. There's nothing wrong with getting cake, calling everyone, eating and drinking, dancing and cutting the cake. You can add more 'unconventional' plans to make it more memorable.
First, you could have some sporting activities. This is a great chance to play football with your neighbours or even skipping rope out in the compound.
Making simple activities engaging could also bring merry. It could be a dressing competition, a modeling game, karaoke or a dance competition. Everyone becomes part of the moment and not just an observer.
For a livelier birthday , you could hire a band, comedian, dancing group or even a theatre group for a play. There's always an artist that can suit your budget.
If planning does not play to your strengths, hire a planner that can not only do as you wish, but also has tasty ideas of their own. We're trying to shake things up!
You can try to vary activities for every birthday as close or far as you feel comfortable. Some spend their birthday doing charitable and voluntary works!
