Your 40th birthday is one of those birthdays which is always marked down as 'special'. The saying goes 'life begins at 40' so you need to mark it with some killer creative birthday ideas. Ater all, your 40th birthday represents the start of the second half of your life and the transition into middle age. So if you are looking for some great 40th birthday ideas for yourself or anyone else approaching 40 read on.
First of all you could organise a themed party which could be fancy dress or may just represent a decorative theme. This could reflect the era when you grew up such as the eighties including the big hair, electronic music and shoulder pads. Equally you could choose a specific theme for your decor guiding your guests as to what to wear. A great example of this is a Hollywood party, with your house dressed up in scenes from famous movies, and your guests as movie characters. As far as 40th birthday ideas go this is probably the most hard work but definitely one of the most creative birthday ideas possible.
Second on the list of great 40th birthday ideas is to simply get away - to somewhere you have always wanted to go or somewhere from your past you haven't been to for ages. What about going for the weekend or even longer. London, New York, Paris, Munich (as the song goes) all await your visit!
Third on my list of great 40th birthday ideas is an 'experience day' - sometimes known as a 'red letter day' where you can go and do something you have always wanted to do - such as wing walking, driving a racecar around a racetrack, or a trip in a hot air balloon. These are one off events organised through a specialist company and are ideal as a special 40th birthday present. As creative birthday ideas go this takes some beating.
Need more 40th birthday ideas? Why not get tickets to your favourite sport , or favourite band, or the theatre. Then go out for a meal with the one you love. Treat yourself, treat someone else or your family - you are only 40 once!
My fifth suggestion is to get away from it all on a themed weekend - such as a murder mystery weekend, or a spa break designed to relax you. You can find many hotels which offer all inclusive packages at a reasonable rate over the weekend.
Number six in the list of 40th birthday ideas is to hire somewhere out exclusively for you and your friends - a yacht, a manor house, a nightclub, a bowling alley - anywhere you can be all together but still 'doing something'
And finally to number seven. There is one final entry on my list of creative birthday ideas and that is to do nothing at all. A 40th birthday where we do nothing! Have a lie in, watch telly, get a takeway, read a book, watch a movie, get drunk. Do absolutely nothing or as little as possible for a day. Of all the 40th birthday ideas this might be the best of them all!
