The Fourth of July is the best time to showcase your love for the country and your appreciation for its history. But aside from barbecues, picnics, and fireworks, how else can you make your Independence Day celebration an extra memorable affair?
Well, you’ve come to the right place. Read on for some easy, fun ways to spice up your Fourth of July party!
Have An All -American Feast
Make sure your party’s food matches the theme perfectly. You can play with a red, white and blue color palette, only serving dishes in these colors. Make sure to have a lot of USA flag toothpicks on hand for extra patriotism!
Hold A Burger-Eating Contest
There’s nothing All-American quite like a juicy hamburger, so it’s only fitting to celebrate Independence Day with a burger-eating contest. The first to finish the whole burger wins!
Hold A Patriotic Paw-ty
Events are simply more fun when there are dogs involved. If you have a spacious yard, you might want to consider throwing a dogs-allowed Fourth of July party. Ask your guests to dress up their pooches in their best red, white, and blue, and give prizes to the best-dressed furry guests.
Help The Kids Create Fourth Of July Rockets
Can’t set off fireworks where you live? That’s totally fine. Join in the fun by creating rockets made of paper, decked out in patriotic hues. For busy moms and dads, this should keep the kids busy for quite a while! When they’re done, hold a contest to see which rocket can fly farthest.
Host A Historical Quiz Night
Rev up your guests’ competitive sides with a trivia game about American history! Have questions with different difficulty levels, and prepare themed prizes for the winners.
