You can get fancy and buy kits, or you can make a bunch of popsicle stick bracelets in advance and let the kids have fun decorating them with whatever you have that is age-appropriate.

The Cup Game: Get three or more cups, boxes or containers that you can hide a treat under. Set the cups upside down, placing treats under only one of the cups. If your dog has never played this game, you can start out by showing her where the treats are and covering them up. Once she gets the hang of the game, make it more difficult by not letting her see which cup the treats are under.

Fetch Station: This fetch station is a creative idea for throwing a dog birthday party. Grab some fun tennis balls, bouncy balls, and frisbees and let all the pups enjoy!

Doggy Ball Pit: Talk about a cute idea, this doggy ball pit is too fun! Fill up your kiddy pool with fun balls and toys and let those pups have some fun!

Dog Bone Hunt: Purchase a bunch of dog bone treats, or print out several pictures of dog bones and then hide them around the party area. Then, let the pups go find them before a timer is up. How much time you give, and if you choose to give a prize for the most bones found is up to you.

Dog Obstacle Course: Turn your backyard into a dog agility competition ring! You don’t need a lot of special equipment to set it up, and the kids would have a blast. You can buy obstacle course sets in every price range!
