Black History Month is a time to celebrate the achievements and contributions of Black people throughout history. If you're planning a soft play party for Black History Month, here are some soft play party ideas to incorporate into your event, courtesy of the London party rental experts at Dancing Cubs!

  • Create a themed soft play area: You can decorate your soft play area with images and symbols related to Black History Month, such as posters of famous Black leaders, African flags or patterns, or books about Black history. This can help to create a welcoming and inclusive environment for all guests.

  • Traditional drumming and dance: You can hire a professional drumming and dance group to perform at your event, or you can teach your guests some basic dance moves and rhythms using online tutorials or a dance instructor.

  • Storytelling: Invite a local storyteller or author to share stories about Black history or culture. You can also have a reading corner with books about Black leaders or traditional folktales.

  • Cultural food and drink: Consider serving food and drink that is traditionally eaten in African or Caribbean cultures, such as jerk chicken, plantain, jollof rice, or ackee and saltfish. You can also offer non-alcoholic beverages such as sorrel or ginger beer!
