THE WHEELS ON THE BUS

A sweet 2-year-old’s favorite song becomes the theme for her birthday party! Every detail of the party was handmade and homemade by her mom, Jennifer! Such a great idea for a birthday party, back to school party, classroom party, or play date!

Mom Jennifer used her Cricut to make the invitations…

Notice the “road” made of roofing shingles! I love that idea!

Jennifer also used the stoplight as a focal point for the party- what a great idea of the toddler set!

Fruit kabobs also resembled stoplights~

She also made adorable lollipops shaped like a yellow bus!

I love how Jennifer incorporated lines from the song…the wipers on the bus go swish, swish, swish!

The coins on the bus go…clink, clink, clink!

More buses…

And the cake made by Jennifer, too- with “wheel” cupcakes!

And how much fun is this school bus made from a box? The guests could really act out the song in this!

I just love all of the thought and time that Jennifer put into her daughter’s party! She shows how a creative party can be easy to achieve! What a unique theme with so many possibilities!! Thank you for sharing your daughter’s party, Jennifer! Something tells me the guests at the party said, “…more, more more!”.

CAMILLE’S FIESTA ~ MEXICAN THEME BIRTHDAY PARTY IDEAS

Celebrating your birthday with a Mexican Fiesta is a sure way to have a great time! My daughter and several of her friends had a ball with all of the bright colors and (hopefully) vivid memories of a beautiful party day full of fun! Planning all of the party ideas and details was loads of fun- although we don’t claim to have everything authentically perfect- this is our take on a party that combines Mexican birthday party ideas with a young girl’s likes and wishes! For instance, we know hedgehogs don’t hail from Mexico- but when she fell in love with a festive-looking hedgehog at a local shop, we decided the hedgehog would make a perfectly fun party favor! So read on and enjoy- and hopefully you will find an idea or two that you can use for a Mexican-themed party or even a Cinco de Mayo celebration, too- and inspiration to incorporate ideas that make your party perfectly-suited for the birthday child!

LILLY PULITZER CAKE DECORATING FLAMINGO BIRTHDAY PARTY IDEAS

There is nothing like the bright colors and happy prints of Lilly Pulitzer to make every day feel like a party! For my daughter’s 12th birthday party, she wanted to decorate cakes~ Lilly-style! So, in order to decide how to mesh the two, I kept thinking “if Lilly had a cake shop instead of a juice stand”… I have to admit, this was one fun party to plan! It is a blast to see where ideas go in the hands of a TWEEN! Enjoy and remember, “…being happy never goes out of style!”.
