Here are a few suggestions begin with the making of a cherry float. Cherry 7-up and vanilla ice cream make this drink a real hit. Top it off with whipped cream and a maraschino cherry. Be sure to put it in a clear glass for the festive look.

You can make or purchase frosted heart shaped cookies from your local bakery or grocery store. With a steady hand, print the name of each guest on the cookie with a decorating tube. For food that will make this kids birthday party perfect, make heart shaped peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Freeze fruit punch in heart shaped ice trays or candy molds. Make enough fruit punch ice for at least three cubes per child. You can also use lemon-lime soda for a very different and tasty beverage.

Collect plastic eggs that are found around Easter time or eggs that are used for the sale of nylons. Paint them with fleck-stone paint to give them the look of enchantment. Leave them to dry as you make the �goo� for the inside of the egg. You will need the following ingredients:

1. Elmer�s glue
2. 2 large bowls
3. food coloring
4. Borax laundry detergent
5. small dragon figure

Mix 2 cups of white Elmer�s glue with 1 � cups warm water in a large bowl. Add food coloring to make the desired color. In the other bowl mix 1 1/3 cups warm water with 3 tablespoons of Borax. Then, mix the contents of the two bowls together. This will make a gelatinous substance. Place in an airtight container or plastic bag until you are ready to fill the eggs.

Once the eggs have dried; place a small figure of a dragon inside the egg. Add the goo or flubber. Close the eggs and put them in a basket until your little guests arrive.

When the children arrive, give each of them an egg. Tell them that they are to keep the egg as warm as they can so the dragons can safely hatch. When you are serving the cake or are opening gifts, have the guests open their dragon eggs as well. The gooey substance will resemble what oozes from the egg when a dragon hatches. Girls might think it is gross, but rest assured the boys will love it!

Children’s Birthday: Zoo party

Children’s Birthday: Zoo party

A fun idea for a children�s birthday party is to take a trip to the zoo. This will take the stress off of having to think of games when children are very young. This is the perfect idea for a children�s party. For beautiful birthday and party dresses, please visit us at www.treasureboxkids.com.

In lieu of having to supply party favors and lunch, you might consider just paying the admission of each guest. You can have cake at home to celebrate your child�s first birthday for anyone who would like to return to your home after the zoo excursion.

Arrange to meet at the front gate at a designated time. You can wear safari hat so that your guest will easily find you. If you have paid the admission before your guests arrive, you can distribute the tickets as they arrive.

To distinguish your group from the others in the zoo you can have painters caps decorated with animal designs. Painter�s caps can be purchased for about one dollar at a painting supply company. To make your children�s birthday party even more personal have your child�s name on the painters hat. For example it can say Johnny�s First Birthday. To add to the fun and cohesiveness of the group suggest that each parent dress the child in a certain color. This will also help if everyone does not know each other and becomes detached from the group during the day.

For a first birthday an excellent gift idea is to suggest that in lieu of giving the baby gifts the guests can make a donation to the zoo for the care of animals. Your child is too young to understand the concept of a birthday and will not know the difference. This will be a great way to celebrate her birthday and help the zoological society as well.
