Angelina Jolie is to throw a soldier-themed birthday party for her daughter.

The actress and partner Brad Pitt - who raise six children together - are already planning a celebration for when their daughter Shiloh turns four next week after the youngster requested a similar bash to one they threw for eldest son Maddox a few years ago.

A source said: "Maddox had a soldier-themed party when he turned four, so Shiloh wants the same."

According to the family friend, Shiloh's parents are planning to shower her with birthday gifts including boots, toy guns and a new bed in the shape of a spaceship.

The source added to In Touch Weekly magazine: "She wants boys' toys, since she's such a little tomboy. Brad also bought Shiloh a jeep that is safe for kids, and he's thinking of getting her a toy quad bike that she can drive around the property."

It was recently claimed that Brad spent more than $10,000 buying boys clothes for Shiloh after she shunned the feminine items he was buying for her five-year-old sister Zahara.

A source said: "Zahara chose very girlie outfits, but Shiloh only wanted items from the boys' collection, which was in another boutique across the street.

"Shiloh had absolutely no interest in the pretty dresses or skirts."

The 'Inglourious Basterds' star has previously revealed that Shiloh only responds to the name John, after growing obsessed with the Darling brothers in classic story 'Peter Pan'.

Brad said: "She only wants to be called John. John or Peter. So it's a 'Peter Pan' thing.

"So we've got to call her John, 'Shi, do you want...' - 'John. I'm John.' And then I'll say, 'John, would you like some orange juice?' "
