Rockin' American Idol Party Ideas for Kids and Teens

The American Idol craze has taken America by storm.

Ideas for an American Idol party include sending out invitations that are worded and designed to be a call for auditions for [insert birthday child’s name here]’s next season. Have the guests R.S.V.P. in order to allow you to get information about the possible song choices they will either sing or lip sync to at the audition. Prepare some cutouts of your Simon, Paula, and Randy (blow up pictures of their faces and glue on to cardboard to cut them out) and put them in chairs to “judge the performances.” In front of each of the cutouts put a bowl with some random comments that the judges have made in the past on pieces of paper. After the “audition,” have the guests take turns picking the comments out of the bowls and reading them out loud. Take care to only select positive things – even from Simon.
