Zoom-ready Party Ideas for a Virtual Magic Birthday Party

Kids will be just as excited to party online, especially with ideas like these—that allow them to interact, play games, enjoy party treats, and maybe do some simple magic tricks!

Even the party invite can be magically sent to guests! Just choose one with an online-sending feature like this Magical Birthday Invitation (1) from Greetings Island.

For the celebrant’s cake, pull a classic act—whether home baked or ordered—with a Rabbit in a Hat Cake (2), like this one found via Little Wish Parties. Note the clever display details, like the dice cake stand, the star card holder, and a toy wand (all DIYable!).

Speaking of magic wands, you can easily whip some up for the party treats. Pretzel rods (3) coated with chocolate-peanut butter and drizzled in star sprinkles (3) as seen on The Toasty Kitchen make ideal wands. Or fresh fruit "magic wands" (4), via Lydia Menzies, are a delish, healthy choice!

Ready in a snap would be popcorn in fun striped treat boxes (5) ordered from Amazon. While drinks that magically change color (6) before the kids’ eyes would be a sure hit! (Tip: Share the how-to from Petit Chef ahead of time with the adults in the little guests’ homes, and have them prepare the simple ingredients. That way, all the children get to see the "magic" happen first hand at the virtual party.)

Don’t forget the celebrant’s magician attire! This Kids Magician Role Play Set (7), available on Amazon, comes with a reversible cape, top hat, gloves, wand, and a white rabbit in a hat. Perfect for those party photos! And to send over to the guests as party favors, fill mini plastic top hats (8), also from Amazon, with candies, cookies, or little magic-trick novelty items.

But wait, there’s more!
