As a seasoned mamma of two, I’ve thrown a themed birthday, or two…or *painfully does math* eighteen? Gosh, I’m old. Anywho, of all the awesome themed birthday party supplies you can get, I would have to say the must-have item are balloons.
They can make or break a birthday party, and I always say, with balloons, the more, the better. That’s why I’d choose the 44 Pieces Dog-Themed Balloons to fill the space and then just sprinkle in a few of the more expensive, licensed Paw Patrol balloons.

What Do You Need for a Birthday Party?
Before I show you all your options for a spectacular, puppy-centric birthday party, let’s run through everything you’ll need for the special day. This list is what I would consider birthday party essentials, so you may want even more than what’s on this list if you can fit it in your budget.
Balloons
Party City always has a big stock of balloons, and you can generally find Paw Patrol characters on balloons at every location. Occasionally, places like Family Dollar and Dollar Tree sell themed Paw Patrol balloons. You can buy the balloons and a helium machine online if you can’t find any in person.
Dishes
You’ll need plates, napkins, cups, and silverware that fit the paws-itively adorable party. I suggest checking out places like Walmart or Target for Paw Patrol-themed paper dish sets, but you can also find them on Amazon.
Wrapping Paper
I think it’s such a nice touch to use themed wrapping paper that fits the party for the gifts. Also, don’t forget to include at least one Paw Patrol gift, like a stuffed toy of your child’s favorite character.
Décor
Let’s not forget about the streamers, tablecloths, banners, and other decorations that transform your home into a child’s oasis. You don’t necessarily need Paw Patrol-themed everything, but be sure to stick to bright colors that match the show’s color scheme. You can also use the color scheme of your child’s favorite character’s outfit.
Pinata
These can be hit or miss with kids. If your child won’t be upset by bashing a paper puppy in until it spills candy guts everywhere, then tell them to have at it. Some kids love pinatas, but it might be best to ask your kid what they think about them. Also, be sure to watch the children smashing the pinata to make sure everyone’s being safe.
Cake
There are tons upon tons of Paw Patrol cake ideas on the internet for you to use as inspiration. I think it can be fun to DIY birthday cakes with some fondant and modeling chocolate, but you don’t have to do that. If you find a picture of a Paw Patrol cake you think your child would like, you can show that picture to a professional cake decorator and pay for them to make it.
Food
Some cute food ideas for a Paw Patrol party might be puppy chow (the powdered sugar candy) and sugar cookies cut out to look like dog bones. As for the savory foods, I think it’s best to ask your kid what they’d like.
Music
Be sure to crank up the music and play some kid-friendly tunes at the party! Did you know you could download the soundtrack from Paw Patrol: The Movie? It might drive you crazy, but it’s worth it for your kid’s special day.
Entertainment
Having Paw Patrol playing on the T.V. might be a good idea while the other kids arrive. Later, you could play Paw Patrol: The Movie if your little one and their guests feel tired after playing and want to wind down.
Games
A birthday party wouldn’t be a birthday party without games, right? If you or your child has a Nintendo Switch, you could pull up Paw Patrol: On a Roll or Mighty Pups Save Adventure Bay! These are also available as PS4 games that can be played on the PS5. Check them out on XBOX One, too.
Loot Bags
Kids love little loot bags, or gift bags, that they can open as soon as they get to the party. Fill plastic Paw Patrol bags with little, themed toys like Paw Patrol pencils, erasers, and maybe some tiny stuffed toys or keychains. Add some candy to fill out the bags. Make sure to reserve a few for your little ones so they feel extra special on their big day.
Who Are All the Paw Patrol Characters?
- Ryder – a boy living in Adventure Bay who is the leader of Paw Patrol. He assigns tasks to the puppies and joins them as they perform missions around the bay.
- Chase – a black and brown German shepherd puppy who wears a dark blue police uniform. He’s a professional pup who takes his job very seriously.
- Marshall – a dalmatian puppy who wears a bright red firefighter uniform. This klutzy puppy has a kind heart and can-do attitude.
- Skye – a cockapoo (Cocker spaniel and poodle mix) wearing a pink glider pack and pink goggles. She’s Paw Patrol’s eye in the sky, resident girly girl, and energetic furball.
- Rocky – a mixed breed puppy with a green recycling uniform and hat. Paw Patrol’s mechanic and recycling expert is a scrappy survivor with a gift for making handmade gadgets work.
- Rubble – an English bulldog puppy who wears a yellow construction uniform. He’s the goofy pup who loves any opportunity to use his bulldozer.
- Zuma – a chocolate Labrador puppy with an orange diving suit and orange helmet. He’s an expert diver with one of the most mellow personalities out of the pups.
