26 Magical Minnie Mouse Birthday Party Ideas (So Cute!)

Kids love to play games, especially silly ones, and pin-on games certainly qualify. Watching someone wearing a blindfold trying to find the perfect place to put a sticker can be pretty comical. Kids have a ball watching their friends take a turn, and they love trying to be the one who comes the closest. Get a game that features pinning something on Minnie, like her nose or mouth or bow; you can find all sorts of versions.

Minnie loves to accessorize, and between her baking and bow-making, she’s also pretty crafty. Therefore, it makes perfect sense to set up an arts and crafts station at your child’s party. Kids can make jewelry, design bows, paint pictures of Minnie, and more. You can set up some DIY crafts or use a craft kit or jewelry making sets that lay everything out for you. The best part is, kids can take their creations home as special party souvenirs.

A Minnie Mouse piñata is an excellent way to add an extra activity to your party and it’s easy to match your theme. Simply choose a piñata that has something to do with Minnie Mouse, fill it with goodies, and let kids go at it. They can swing a stick or pull a string; you decide what option works best for your party situation. For example, if you need to use the piñata indoors or a small space, a pull-string is the way to go. But if you’re outside and it’s older kids, hitting it can be lots of fun.

If you’re looking for a fun but low-key party game, print out some bingo cards like these Minnie ones from Spoonful of Sparkles. Playing Bingo is easy, and when you use picture cards, even young kids can play. This activity is a great option if you need something a little calmer before you round up everyone for cake, or following a more intense, active game, etc. It’s always nice to have a mix of activities in your back pocket so you can choose which type is best based on how the party is going.

One of Minnie’s skills is baking and decorating cookies. The Chickabug Blog shows how you can add this feature to your party with a cookie-decorating station. Prebake some Minnie shaped sugar cookies, and lay out an assortment of colored frostings, sprinkles, and other fun toppings. Set up a table with a colorful tablecloth and give each child a cookie on a plate. If you have a lot of kids, it might be easier to make some decorating kits for each one, so they don’t have to reach across the table or move around a lot.

These super cute fruit kabobs from Kara’s Party Ideas are the perfect way to add a healthy treat to your Minnie Mouse menu. Strawberries and blueberries are fruits that pretty much every kid loves to eat. So arrange them onto cake pop sticks or oversized toothpicks in the shape of a pretty bow. Add a label naming them “Minnie’s Bows,” and you have the perfect themed snack for your party.

If you’re throwing a birthday party during lunch time (which is a popular kid’s party time), serve some finger sandwiches to guests. It’s a great way to offer a lunch item and you can also provide a selection by making different types of sandwiches. Try PB&J, turkey, cheese sandwiches, etc. Baby Shower Ideas shows off some Minnie shaped sandwiches that would work perfectly for your party. All you need is the right shaped cookie cutter. If you want to add a little something extra, place an edible bow on a few sandwiches. You can use a cut strawberry slice or an oversized shaped sprinkle, etc.

Cupcakes are a natural birthday party treat, whether serving them as a snack or making them your main birthday cake. Two Sisters shows off some pretty, pink Minnie cupcakes, with a swirl of frosting, mini oreo ears, and white chocolate bows. Some sugar pearls add just the right touch for an elegant finish. Bake any flavor cupcake you prefer or a variety, and use pink cupcake liners to tie the whole look together.

There’s something super satisfying about the combination of sweet and salty. And chocolate-covered pretzels, like these from Creative Desserts Chicago, are a great way to serve this tasty combo at your kid’s birthday party. Drizzle colored chocolate that matches your theme, whether going with classic red, white, and black, or black, pink, and white. Top off the pretzels with a Mickey shaped candy or chocolate piece. These beautiful treats also make perfect party favors for your guests to enjoy after the celebration.

Repurpose some bottled soda or pink lemonade into these pretty, pink drinks from Catch My Party. Make your Minnie ears and bows and glue them to the bottle tops. Cut patterned contact paper to wrap around and stick to the bottle. It makes the perfect backdrop for a polka-dot ribbon and other festive touches. This would also work if you’re going with a different color scheme. Simply find the drink color of your choice and, like Minnie does, coordinate your accessories to match.

How adorable is this Minnie Mouse dress cake from Crafty Morning? It’s super cute and so easy. Plus, a pull-apart cake is a great idea for a kid’s party. Who wants to wait for you to cut the cake, right? Just sing, and let them grab a treat. Once you arrange the cupcakes in the appropriate shape, the decoration on this one is simple. Pipe on some red or pink icing, add white dots of frosting and pipe on Minnie’s belt. Instead of white frosting polka-dots, you could also use white chocolate candies. And instead of black icing, you could lay a few strips of black licorice across for effect.

Here’s another simple but pretty Minnie Mouse cake from Easy Party Ideas and Games. It’s also a pull-apart, but you can apply the same design to a basic round cake as well, or use a bow-shaped cake pan, etc. The cake reflects Minnie’s classic polka-dot pattern, and you can choose to do it in red and white, black and pink, pink and white etc. It’s a versatile idea that you can tweak to fit your exact party vibe.

This two-tiered tall cake from Alexandra is cute, sweet, and showcases Minnie’s personality. The gum paste flowers around the bottom layer add movement and a 3D effect to the cake. The bright pink ties into Minnie’s bow sitting atop Minnie’s head as she seems to peek out from the sweet confection. Design her face using fondant, and you’ll end up with a cake that’s almost too pretty to cut into.

A classic silhouette of Minnie ears adorned with a chocolate bow is a great way to create a stunning, custom Minnie Mouse cake. This pretty pink version from Nyleen Delgado is covered in icing rosettes. You can bake a large sheet cake and cut out the Minnie shape. Or use one large round cake pan and bake two smaller round cakes for the ears. Another option is to turn this into a pull-apart cake. Again, with multiple options of how to design it, this cake provides versatility to match your budget, skills, and theme.

Do you plan to bake your child’s birthday cake? Or maybe you want to keep things simple and go with a basic cake from a local bakery or grocery store. Whichever you choose to do, you can easily add some Minnie Mouse flair using a Minnie cake topper. You can find toppers in all sorts of shapes, sizes, and styles, as well as various colors. These options make it easy to find a topper that is just right for your precise theme.
