water party/beach- water guns, slip n slide, water balloons
clown theme, pink poodle theme, bratz, cats/dogs, zoo, pirates of the caribbean,
you can do an egg race... give them a spoon with a hard boiled egg and see who gets to the finish line first.
beach ball race- they get on their hands and knees and have to push a ball with their heads to the finsh line.
3 legged race
pop the balloons
musical chairs
musical chairs scavengar hunt- go find a balloon. go find someone elses shoe, cup, hat, etc... when they run away to find it you pull away a chair. winner gets a prize.

I'd highly suggest some time of craft. For my daughter's 5th, we bought kite kits, where you get all the pieces needed for the kite in a package, and the kids can make their own designs with paint, crayons or markers. We had her party in the park. We sat all the kids down with their kite fabric and some coloring supplies, they spent about 45 minutes drawing on their kites. When they were done, we finished the assembly of them and sent the kids to play in the fields with them. They were great because they required little effort on our part, no real wind to fly (the kids could get them off the ground by running), and they made a great, personal, party favor. By the way - we had 22 kids at the party! ( Way to many, but she's in daycare, and you can't invite only part of a class!) As an added bonus, the kids all got lots of exercise and went home tired!

Pinata! Make a pinata and play the pinata game... buying pinatas is way too expensive, at least for me. Here is a link for making pinatas:

You Could also do the typical pin the tail on the donkey.. but instead of a donkey make it a character that your sister really likes... my son loves Thomas for his birthday we had pin the smoke to the smoke-stack of the train.
Does she like soccer? You could have a goal kick-off.. See who could kick the most goals in a certain amount of time or who could dribble around the cones without knocking them over and then have a little prize for the winner.
Scavanger hunts in the backyard are kind of fun too.

Teddy Bear Tea Party. Have everyone bring a teddy bear or stuffed animal and have a tea party with fingersandwiches, punch, and cookies. Then read the book called " the teddy bear tea party."

play some pool games.
like
marco polo
colors
doggy paddle race
water ballon toce
theres one where you walk aroung thepool and when the music stops the last one i the pool is out. od it till theres a winner
close their eyes they open their mouth and you put some kind of food in their mouth and they try to tell you what it is. seems easy but my sister did it at her 6th bday party and it was a hit
just let them swim they WILL be entertained

give them water balloons, and food. they'll be set for the day.
For one of my cousins parties they did a beach theme, and they got hawaiian punch, and got little coconut shaped cups for them to drink out of. they were adorable and the kids loved them. goodluck (:
and im assuming there will be the usual piniata, because without that, a party just isnt a party.

theme parties are great. i saw a book from a library about them it gave all the details. to search for different themes on the internet you willhave to do your own search. good luck.
