NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM PARTY IDEAS

Give Everyone A Tour Guide Badge: Let everyone feel like they are on a tour of the museum. Grab a lanyard for each person and print their name on it to wear throughout the party. This is a great way to give the museum feel while helping you keep up with kids names.
Setup A Mini Museum: Divide your living room into display areas. Setup a different display for each theme from the movie. Have the wild west them, military, dino’s and more. You can use cardboard boxes painted or covered with colored paper to create backdrops. Have kids pretend play in each area.
Bring Out The Costumes: Set out the costume box and let kids dress up as their favorite themed character from the movie to have fun pretending they are a part of the movie. This can be a separate play time, or can be worn throughout the party for all of your game times. We love the Hero Adventures costume set pictured above. It’s perfect for a Night at the Museum party!
Hang A Golden Tablet: The Golden Tablet brings the movie to life. Hang a large piece of yellow or golden paper in the shape of the tablet on a wall or even on the door so your guests have to pass through or by it to enter the party. This golden tablet will bring your party to life.
Play Cowboys: Go back in time and have fun with great play time with toy toy horses, cowboy hats, boots and other western items. Set up a relay race for riding a toy horse to see who will win as a real cowboy.
Setting up a fun Night At The Museum Party is easy with these great party ideas. Think outside the box to create a fun filled game your kids will love! Get them involved in the party planning with helping you set up your “museum”. Kids can easily help paint, decorate or arrange things just before guests arrive. Have a movie watching night a few weeks in advance to get other great ideas for your Night At The Museum Party.

I would never have thought of that type of party but what a great idea and maybe you can even visit the museum b/f the party.
I actually didn’t care much for the original, so my kids never saw it, but they have seen commercials for the new one and keep asking to go see it. I am going to have to sweettalk my hubby into taking them.
Oh my how cute. I want to see this movie so bad. Love the museum movies.
What great party ideas. We just saw the newest Night at the Museum and LOVED it.
What cute ideas. We love those Night at the Museum movies… and love doing fun things here at home. Thanks for sharing.
How funny is it that my son JUST watched Night at the Museum today, and I had to stop what I was doing to watch the end? I loved having parties like this with my kids.
Sounds like a great idea. We haven’t seen any of the movies yet but they look like so much fun.
What a super fun idea for the kiddos. I need to see this one too. I love when you can make movie night more than just a movie night!
My kids love the movies. These are fantastic ideas and out of the ordinary!
What cute ideas, love the costumes. My kids would enjoy this!

Love the night at the museum movies so this would be so much fun!
These are awesome ideas. Love the movies.
These sound like great party ideas. Our local science museum allows parties at night at the museum. It would be great to try these at the actual museum.
We have watched this over and over so much. Great party ideas for this wonderful theme.
Ha! I love it – what a cool idea! I never would have thought to use this movie as a theme but it would be great for older kids who have outgrown the Diego and Superhero type themes!
This would be so much fun! Something all of my kids would love to take part in.
These are really clever ideas. I haven’t seen the movies, but I like your ideas anyway. 🙂
What a fun list of ideas! I know my kids would love to participate in a party where they are dressed up in costumes,
