MJ’s birthday was earlier this month, he’s a big 5 year old! Being the baseball lover that he is, he opted for a San Diego Padres party, featuring his favorite MLB team. The party was set at a local park and included a sports jumper, a fun game of baseball, Padres cupcakes, a pinata, friends, family, baseball themed food and fun. We had a blast! If you are looking for baseball party ideas, take a look at what we did for MJ…
The Baseball Party Decorations
I made this baseball cupcake tower to match the Padres colors and theme. It was so simple and turned out very cute. The cupcakes are yellow cake with a vanilla buttercream frosting, topped with the Padres baseball cupcakes toppers I made for them. Love how they looked!
Baseball themed food and snacks included hot dogs, chicken wings, cracker jacks, peanuts, licorice, popcorn, chips, baseball cookies and watermelon. Mmmm!
The baseball party favors are homemade, MJ and I took on this project and he had a lot of fun doing it! They are plastic baseball cups filled with goodies: baseball cards, mini cracker jacks, baseball stickers, candy and little squishy baseball toys. We slid each favor into a clear plastic party bag and tied off the top with a ribbon, curling the ends. Very cute and affordable, we made 20 and it only cost about $36, or less than $2 each!
It’s Party Time!

Very cute party favors. Where did you find the mini-cracker jacks?
I actually bought them in 3-packs at Walmart! If they don’t have them near you, i’d check Amazon.
