Of course, company guidelines must always be followed, but here are some of our favorite company birthday party ideas&#8230; One year we did a retro party, you know, like when you were a kid: Cake, candles, deviled eggs, and even Pin the Tail on the Donkey.\u00a0 Another time we tried Take your Cupcakes to Work Day: everyone brought in a dozen of their favorite cupcakes to share. That was a big hit.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gallerycollection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/3918009411_6dd048d9d0_z.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6342\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gallerycollection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/3918009411_6dd048d9d0_z.jpg\" alt=\"office party\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gallerycollection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/3918009411_6dd048d9d0_z.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.gallerycollection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/3918009411_6dd048d9d0_z-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gallerycollection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/3918009411_6dd048d9d0_z-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The trick is to keep costs and prep time down, while keeping the morale and fun level high.\u00a0 In recent years our office birthday parties have evolved into\u00a0 a routine that seems to please everyone. We celebrate once a month, on the last Friday of the month. Everyone who celebrated a birthday that month is honored, and (here&#8217;s the best part) the birthday celebrants bring in the food. Just like when you were in elementary school, the birthday kids bring in the goodies! So, you only have to bring in goodies one time each year, and you can bring in your favorites, since it is your own &#8220;party&#8221;.\u00a0 We have been doing this for a few years now, and everyone looks forward to it each month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"At most offices, if you were to take a poll about\u00a0 Office Birthday Parties, you would find a&hellip;","protected":false},"author":96,"featured_media":6342,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1292,1296,1297,1316,510],"tags":[613,642,643],"class_list":{"0":"post-6341","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-occasions-and-celebrations","8":"category-tips-and-trends","9":"category-birthday-inspiration","10":"category-office-wellness-tips-and-trends","11":"category-the-workplace","12":"tag-office-party","13":"tag-birthday-party","14":"tag-company-birthday-party","15":"cs-entry"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
