Winnie the Pooh Baby Shower
Host a Winnie the Pooh baby shower for a fun gender neutral baby shower. A Winnie the Pooh baby shower is easy to decorate because of the popularity of this cuddly storybook character. Your Pooh baby shower is centered on Pooh and his friends from the Hundred Acre Wood.
Winnie the Pooh Baby Shower
Invitations for the Pooh baby shower are as simple as decorating colorful card stock with Pooh stickers or rubber stamps, online clipart or by using the Winnie the Pooh printout program from Disney. Tie a balloon bouquet to a big Pooh bear for the centerpiece of your party. Pooh baby shower decorations include stuffed animals, Pooh balloons, Pooh toys, or make a honey pot from a terra cotta pot painted bright yellow with “Hunny” written on the front (this is how Pooh spells it).

Creative Expression
Providing opportunities for children’s creative expression is how children approach the world in order to learn about it and to learn about themselves. Creative expression is how children play, work, express how they are feeling, and share themselves with the world around them.
Creative Expression
Here are some tips to foster creativity for kids:
• Free time for free (supervised) play
• Arts classes
• Attend arts events
• Limit TV time
• Story telling
• Play act children’s stories
• Make a creative corner with crayons, dress-up props, etc.
• Praise artistic expression
• Display artistic creations
• Attend their school plays
Young children may not know which form of artistic expression they would enjoy most. Many bookstores and arts and craft stores have pre-made art kits for children; beads and embellishments, paints, markers, foam projects, stickers, stamps, holiday crafts, cross-stitch and embroidery, beginners knitting and crochet projects, craft critters, and more.

Bowling Birthday
Hosting a bowling birthday is a fun idea for children of many ages. A bowling birthday is versatile and inexpensive party that can be held at home or an actual bowling alley. When holding a bowling birthday party at home, decorate with giant bowling balls and pins made from construction paper or tagboard.
Bowling Birthday
For bowling birthday party games, many discount stores sell colorful plastic bowling sets, but you may also use just about anything to be knocked over by a ball: empty cans, milk cartons, soda bottles, etc. Another versatile bowling idea is domino bowling, where children build their own domino tracks to knock over. Food for bowling parties can simply be what you would find at a bowling alley: pizza, hotdogs, nachos, hamburgers and sodas.
