11 Great Fortnite Party Supplies
Fortnite Party Invitation
Set the theme for the party with a great Fortnite invitation. First, decide if you want an evite or printed invitation. I found a great email invitation on the evite website with a flossing bear – great for younger kids’ parties. If you have older boys, check out these printed Fortnite invitations.
Fortnite DIY Bases
Prepare for the party by creating bases for the kids to hide behind while playing Fortnite games. I do this by using cardboard boxes or sawhorses. Two quick ways to create the bases are by spray painting the boxes or spreading a camouflage mesh over the area. The mesh really gives the party a feel of a real army base and immerses the kids in the games. Find out how to make easy DIY Fortnite bases.
The best part of a Fortnite party is the games! This is where the kids really have fun. To reenact Fortnite, we have a huge Nerf gun battle. I explain this in detail in my Fortnite Party Games blog. However, here is a quick synopsis. In the game, each child has a Nerf gun and the kids are broken up into two teams trying to be the first to locate the hidden flag. While they search, supply drops are thrown to replenish their Nerf bullets. The kids really get into finding the flag first and the Nerf battle.
Here are some of the supplies we use for this game.
Cloth Tool belts from Amazon. Kids use these to hold their bullets. If you have limited time to shop, these are great. However, if you have more time, you will find them cheaper at Menards or Home Depot.
The Nerf N-Strike Elite Strongarm Blaster is what I suggest if you are buying all the kids Nerf guns. It is reasonably priced and works well. We have used these for several parties.
Safety Glasses are a must have for all the kids. Safety first!
I use these bandannas two ways. First as flags for each team. Then I cut them up as bands to tie on kids arms so we know who is on each team.
Fortnite Party Favors
Fortnite Good Bags and Supply Drop Bags
I use blue goody bags as supply drop bags during the party. I fill them with Nerf bullets and throw them into the game. This is one of the kids favorite parts and really changes the game from a Nerf Gun battle to a Fortnite battle. I also use the blue bags as goody bags for the kids.
