Party Idea - Polly Pocket Party

Dsc_0135

I recently attended a dear friends daughters Polly Pocket birthday
party. She created a festive "Polly" mood by decorating the table and
party space with bright Polly World colors: hot pink, purple, bright
yellow and orange. Most of the decorations were simple and hand made
by cutting out different colored paper in the shape of flowers.
Instead of party favors, all the Polly party attendee participated in
a treasure hunt. And the finding were theirs to keep. Fun, simple
girls party.

6 Simple Party Games

I love simple party games. In a world that rushes kids to grow into
teenagers by age 7, I find it incredibly refreshing to watch young kids
truly enjoy themselves doing something many would consider old-fashioned,
when really they are just being kids! And that's the way it should be. Here
are some party game ideas.

1. a Treasure Hunt (not just for pirate parties either!); a "treasure" can
be anything related to the theme

2. Pass the ___ to Music; for my daughter's recent Woodland Fairy party, we
used a pinecone from my in-laws' backyard. Hey, whatever works!

3. Relay with a ___ on a Spoon; kids love this one...namely the 5+ crowd.
For my son's Lego party we used just that...a lego piece.

4. Guess the # of ___ in a Jar; this is perfect for the first 10 minutes
when you are waiting for guests to trickle in. Fill a small mason jar with
jelly beans that match the party's theme colors. Target usually has a good
selection of colors/flavors in bulk and of course, your local candy store
should too.

5. Balloon Stomp; can be done to music and is recommended for 5 and older.

6. Pin the __ on the ___; I love this one!There is something about being
blind-folded and spun that really makes things lively!
