Clown party

Planning a Clown Theme Party for toddlers is a lot of fun. To start with, send out clown covered invitations that say something like “Come clown around for Stephen’s 5th Birthday!” One good thing about clown theme parties is that they appeal to both boys and girls. There is no reason to not invite friends of each to the party as they will all be able to share in the fun.

Clown party game

This is a great circus clowns party game for slightly older children. Prior to the party, gather together a few “clown” outfits – garish shirts, oversized pants and shoes, suspenders, wigs and a red noses – and put them in a box or basket.

Gather guests together and split them up into teams small enough so that there is one outfit available for each team member; teams compete one after the other. The object of the game is to be the fastest team to have members race one-by-one from the starting line to the basket of clothes, put on a full clown’s outfit and run back again. The team with the fastest time is the winner. This circus clowns party game will give you great photo opportunities.

Clown make up

Everyone knows what a clown looks like. This look is somewhat easy replicate, but you have to know a little something about the makeup to pull off a good clown face. For starters, you're going to need to get some really good oil based paint. Oil based paints will stay on longer and aren't as prone to streaking as other paints.

You can find oil based paints at a costume store or clown/theatre makeup supply shop. You can choose whatever colors you want. However, most clowns start with basic white makeup. They cover their faces with the white makeup and then add color. Red is great for making a big clown smile. Yellow, blue, black and green are great for eye accents.

CONCLUSION
