What are some good crafts for her and her friends to do to keep them entertained? She really wants to make a craft but not a scrapbook or anything doing with paper. She wants it to be really creative and she’s not into princesses.
My daughter is a bit of a tomboy..she doesn’t like jewlery..she’s really into soccer.
We live where it is REALLY cold…I like the 3rd answerer! Great ideas!

If you are struggling with coming up with clues, you may considering purchasing a hunt that is already designed for you and can be customized for your location, time frame, etc. Check out http://www.mastersofthehunt.com/buy-a-scavenger-hunt.php for hunts that are professionally designed with cool graphics.

Question by Connie: I’m planning my daughters Birthday party and sent out invitations last week asking parents to “CALL” and RSVP
the party is this Saturday and to date no one has called. I’m sending out a note stating the following:
As you know birthday parties need planning.
It is important to RSVP. If you plan on your
Child attending Bridget’s party on Saturday,
please call and verify whether
Or not your child is attending. . I have
Voicemail if there is not an answer, please
Leave a message. If there is not a call I will
Assume that your child does not plan on
Attending.
My mother thinks this is being pushy. I feel it is just prudent planning. It’s a roller skating party and I need to know how many to expect since I have to pay extra for anyone over the package number. Who’s right?
let me also add that I’m a single mother of 4 and on a tight budget.

Answer by Loney
Lots of chips and cookies
If one of your friends can be a DJ then invite them too and have them DJ
Have a lot of good CDs ready
Lots of soda and juice
Keep it alcohol-free though, and avoid the punch bowl
I love chocolate dipped strawberries!
Maybe a disco ball
Also if you have friends in a band you could invite them over too

Question by Joey’sGirl<3: My sister wants to have a birthday/baptism party for my niece, Any ideas on how we can decorate?
I’m not to happy about mixing the party’s together, but what can I do I’m just the auntie. Anyway she will be 3 years old, and I was thinking of a Tinker bell theme (Light green and pink), The girls will get fairy accessories (like wands) and the boys will get pirate accessories (like eye patches). Not sure about the games except for a treasure hunt. Since she will be having a baptism I was thinking of adding silver to the decorations. I really want her to have a tinker Bell birthday cake but I was also thinking of having mini cupcakes with white frosting, But I think that’s too much cake. Any other ideas for decorating, food and games?

Best answer:

Answer by azinum
Tinkerbell and Pirates.. broaden the theme by drawing more from Peter Pan- keep decorations pink and green, but throw in some nautical stuff around the party hall for Captain Hook’s ship and other Never Never Land things.

Have Tinkerbell cake, and name typical party food items in reference to Tinkerbell, the Lost Boys, and other characters and locations from the story.

Rather than games, opt for an activity that will keep kids busy for some time. Play the movie for them before they eat, and have kids decorate frames, paint their own Ts, or find other inspiration at an arts and crafts store.

Question by Brittany: Birthday Party Planning!?
Okay, my 13th B-Day party’s coming up, and I have convinced my mom to let me have a party, for the first time in my life(with my friends) and I want to make it perfect!!
My B-day is in the summer, the middle of June.
I love Alvin and the Chipmunks, (their music too!), and dancing, so I was thinking about having a dance party in my backyard, but what should I bring to eat, what should the theme be, what decorations should I use. Please help, this is my first birthday party that I am planning, and I’m really nervous about it.Thanks for your help!!
I don’t have a lot of extra time, so I tend to plan ahead
It is a girl/boy party

Best answer:

Answer by Snowboardin Chick
I’m having the same problem. But if it’s your first birthday party, you better make it big. How about a 50′s theme. Your could decorate with old lights, dress like your from the 50′s, and maybe watch old movies. Sorry but that’s all I could think of. Oh, and nice name, it’s mine also.
