We threw a classic baseball birthday party for my sons’ 5th and 3rd birthdays. We’ve shared all the details and easy printables in the post below.

Invitation
The invitation we used has the cutest baseball colors. We used an editable template and shared through Paperless Post for easy delivery and guest management.
Decorations & Activities
Decorations for this party were very simple and overall minimal but cute! We printed personalized pennants and placed them in mason jars filled with ballpark peanuts. These printables can be edited to add your little one’s name. This is a diy anyone can do.. Simply print, cut and hot glued to a stick.
We found a few cute dugout chants for letter boards and incorporated kiddo’s names. We love to use paper table runner for all our parities for an easy and fun detail.
We also used baseball banners (happy birthday, baseballs & pennants) and made a baseball balloon column.
The perfect activity for a baseball birthday party is a piñata to let your guests put their batting skills to the test.
Food & Dessert
Food is what made this party so simple and themed. Everyone loves ballpark food. It’s a breeze to make yourself. Especially, when you have a hot dog roller! The other necessity is ballpark nachos. We used these baseball party food boats to easily top your favorite ballpark food with all the fixings!
Snacks are also a must! We served ballpark pretzels, Cracker Jacks and fresh popped popcorn. We used this delicious theater popcorn mix and popcorn maker.
For fun we made these delicious baseball chocolate covered pretzels. Another easy recipe that elevated the food table! Our advice is to make a double batch because your guests will gobble these up.
Our boys really love cookie cake, so we made a cookie cake sundae in these baseball party favor ballpark helmet ice cream bowls, topped with sprinkles and a cherry.
Party Favors
You’ll see from many of our parties, we love doing a themed sugar cookie for the party favor! @soozcakes made personalized baseball sugar cookies prepackaged for the goodie bags. Her cookies can be ordered ahead and shipped! And they taste delicious!
Auggie and Brooks loved their baseball birthday party! We used cute printables and classic baseball themed food to make this baseball birthday party as equally simple as adorable and fun!
