Shark Week Party at the Beach

Shark Week Party at the Beach

Every year I host a shark week party for our kids and their friends. Some years we’ve hosted the party in the back yard and play Shark Week on a projector. Other years we have moved the party inside. This year, however, we hosted an early Shark Week Party at the Beach, and it may be my favorite party ever!

Host a Shark Week Party

Since this party was at the beach, I didn’t want to pack more than what could fit in my little wagon. I set up a small table that was easy to take apart and put back together near a pier. Then, I covered the table with a beach blanket. I brought a few nautical decorations from home and set them on the table to add a little more color to the table. I also made a fun pallet wood shark sign to rest against the table legs on the sand.

Shark Week Party Food

It’s hard to have a whole lot of food at the beach, unless you don’t mind eating sand. I did have a small cake, and to keep it from getting sandy and gross, I put it in a wooden crate on its side.

I also brought bottled Coca Cola and kept it cool in a small bucket of ice. Since the beach party was really for the kids, I filled a jar with gummy sharks and put some lollipops on the table for the kids to grab while they played in the surf.
