Kids Birthday
If you have a basement, it would be the perfect place to host your child�s birthday. If you don�t have a basement, a few dark sheets darkening a room will also work. Start by hanging glow in the dark stars to the ceiling using fishing line. You can hang rewritable CD�s from the ceiling and you can also attach the glow in the dark stars to the CD�s. You may also want to hang some black helium balloons on the ceiling to add to the effect. Make the planets out of construction paper and hang them from the ceiling as well. For a centerpiece you can use three empty oat meal boxes covered in aluminum foil. Fill them with black and royal blue tissue paper.
On the day of the party, purchase some dry ice from your local ice company. You can put it in a bucket with water and when it �steams� you can tell the kids that it just fell from space and it is a moon rock. A cake will be easy to make since most cake molds are round. You can use chocolate icing to make the cake look like a planet or use vanilla icing to make it look like the moon.

Tips and tricks
Baby Shower Invitations: message in a bottle
Beautiful baby shower invitations are a sure way to build the excitement for an upcoming baby shower. Be creative as possible when creating these baby shower invitations. At www.treasureboxkids.com we like to keep you informed on the latest and most original ideas for baby showers as well as kids birthdays. Please visit us anytime to see our adorable girls party dresses.
Baby Shower Invitations
Purchase some baby bottles at the local discount store, clear bottles are the best to use for this project. The clear bottle will resemble the message in the bottle better than the colored bottles.
Use confetti to line the bottom of the bottle to give it the festive look. On your own computer you can create the invitation. The possibilities are endless as to what kind of design you would want to choose from. One suggestion is to use scrapbook paper with a design for babies. This will give a nice background to the information about the shower. Roll the invite and place it in the bottle. The top of the bottle should secure the paper inside or you can use some hot glue to be sure that the top stays secure.
Another cute idea is to take an ultrasound picture, scan and copy the pictures and write the information on the back. Put it in an envelope and send it along.
Kids Activities: Raising Thankful Kids
Doing kids activities is helpful when teaching kids to be thankful in everyday life. Here at www.treasureboxkids.com we know that while we strive to make the outside look good on your child there is another aspect to raising kids that is so important.
Family Activities
One important factor that we often overlook is being grateful for what we have. Our example to our kids is more important than anything we say or do. If we model our gratitude to them and have frequent family activities, they will be grateful right back. Thanking our children and letting them know how the little things they do mean a lot will give them added self-esteem as well as encourage them to be more giving and grateful.
New York psychologist Michael Schulman PhD author of the book Bringing Up A Moral Child had a wonderful suggestion for raising thankful kids. Make a chart listing all the things that each family member did during the day with the needs of someone else in mind. This is a graphic illustration of how you are raising thankful kids.
Doing kids projects and chores beginning when they are young is also a beneficial way of raising thankful kids. It is especially helpful if at time you do the chore with them. All of us can relate to making the job easier and give them a positive attitude when we have some company.

Children’s Birthday
A children�s birthday party is so much fun to have during the Christmas season. In fact, there are endless possibilities for crafts and fun with doing children�s birthday parties.
Childrens Birthday
First of all, you do not need to decorate, you already have Christmas decorations up and you can easily add a children�s party to the Christmas party. If you want to really create the atmosphere, you can dress as Mrs. Santa! The kids will love the fantasy.
Purchase reindeer hats at the dollar store and present them to each child as they arrive. Start the birthday party by taking a large picture of Santa and glue it to some corrugated cardboard. Have the guests pin the nose on Santa.
One tradition that has been lost over the years is caroling. This birthday party would be an opportune time to teach the kids that age old tradition. Practice a few songs then go out and treat the neighborhood to some good old fashioned caroling!
Return home to hot apple cider and your little elf can open his or her gifts. Your child will be so happy with this birthday party while wearing their new clothes from www.treasureboxkids.com. Visit us for more birthday ideas as well as monthly tips and tricks.

Games for Kids
Using games for kids is a great way to teach motor skills as well as color association. Not only will your toddler be learning but you will be bonding as well. This game for kids will not only teach them necessary skills but they will have fun doing them.
Games for Kids
Take three small disposable cups that are a different color. If you want to be �green� use three small Tupperware glasses or plastic glasses that are a different color that can be purchased at a discount or dollar store.
With your toddler watching, take finger foods, hopefully healthy ones and put them under two of the cups. Now move the cups to different places. Let your child discover where the food is hiding. You might be surprised if they can find it immediately and not look under the cup that has nothing. Of course this will also depend on the child�s age and how ready they are for kids learning games. You can repeat the activity and use variations depending upon your child and their age. You will want to name the color during the game to instill the association.
Have fun with this and other educational games for kids that we will bring to you with our blogs. You can also visit us at www.treasureboxkids.com where you will find adorable, colorful outfits for your baby or toddler.
