Regardless of the theme of your party you may want to consider a Let the Countdown Begin party. If the guest of honor is turning 40 then send out invitations 40 days prior to the event with a calendar in. Make sure that you send a reminder, in this case 20 days before would be ideal. Create signs with funny quotes about growing old and use one for each day of the countdown. Save them all up to decorate the walls and other areas of your house for the party. Base the theme of the party itself around a hobby the person likes or the time of year of their birthday.
A let the countdown begin party is a fun way to celebrate the new year or a birthday.

this Let the Countdown Begin free themed party
game... COUNTDOWN CHINESE WHISPERS: For a 50th or 60th birthday party for somebody with a good sense of humor (and friends with a similarly good sense of humor it can be fun to include games that play on the weaknesses that people suffer as they age. Chinese whispers is a perfect one to do just that. All guests sit in a long line and the person at one end should whisper a fairly long sentence in the ear of the next person who then repeats this with the person to him or her and so on. The person at the other end speaks the saying out loud. Use a quotation about old age, something like: ‘And in the end, it’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years.’ Abraham Lincoln. Have fun
along with the guests at the Let the Countdown Begin party!
