This year, the kids had a car party. I made their invitations - printing them on the magnet paper for the ink jet (post card sized).
They had a sledding party at our house (we have a great sledding hill in our back yard.)
I made the girls cake. I found the directions on the internet.

I also bought some CARS fabric and made goodie bags. I hate getting junk in gift bags, so I did matchbox race cars, some play dough, and CARS fruit snacks.
The kids also made a foam door hanger with their name (put letters in a plastic bag for them in advance) and other things to decorate them with. Those also went in the gift bag.
Then we played a "Pin the smile on Lightning McQueen".
Considering that this was a party for 4 y.o. and 7 y.o. - I think I did pretty well. Thank goodness I only have to do one party a year!
Holy cow that cake is A-MAZING!! Bet it was yummy too! And the invites on magnet paper? Too cute. Happy birthday to the girls!
ReplyDeleteI think that it's amazing you were able to pull off one birthday party that was appropriate for those two ages. That's a big developmental/interest difference! Kudos to you and your cute cake!
