<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Be it beach, BBQ, cricket, fireworks, family & friends ~ Australia Day 26 January is a day where we can celebrate our wonderful country and how lucky we are to live here. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">What are some of the things you love about Australia ? I love the flag, love the Aussie accent and the slang that only Aussies understand and I love the kangaroo road signs (dorky thing to love but its just home!).</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">For me, I love nothing more than receiving home made gifts. I would rather a homemade gift from my kids than any store bought gift and I am always excited to open the gifts they made for me at school on Christmas morning. Making homemade gifts is a great way to spend time with your family and also a great way to give your family and friends that special something at Christmas that was not only made with love but also won't break your bank account at what is generally a very costly time of year. Here are a few special gift ideas and links to their tutorials that would be perfect for gifts for teachers, parents and grandparents. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">2. Mini Cookie Snow globes. Make and decorate your own cookies and then display them as a little snow globe. Such a cute idea and lots of fun for the kids to create.

What was I to do with the ten thirteen year old girls descending upon my house?
Have them sit staring at a wall for 5 hours? My kid had taken away my best
material! So now I was facing a "gathering" that was sounding about as fun as
discovering a fermented nappy under your car seat after 6 months of "what is
THAT smell?" (Obviously I don't need to tell you, this happened to me.)</span></div>

part, each time a birthday rolls around the girls and I pour over the birthday
cake bible aka Women's weekly cake book and painstakingly pick a cake to
recreate. I use the term recreate very loosely, one year I tried to make a
caterpillar cake- it ended up something like this.</span></div>

least an hour. The ladies were sent off to put themselves in my clothes and
shoes. After they were done they stood in front of a large white sheet we'd hung
up and an epic photo shoot commenced. I then emailed them all the photos.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">The night ended with a giant chocolate
non novelty mud cake I'd acquired from Costco and happy birthday was sung. I
know I went against the directives with the singing however there was no way I
was giving up that particular tradition.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Hopefully this has been of some use to
those of you facing the transition from parties where your guests wet their
pants to parties where your guests roll their eyes and scream a lot. Look as we
all know the wee-ing of the pants can come back as an adult, if the party is
REALLY good.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Kids love playing party games and I have compiled a list of easy party games that are loads of fun to play and also budget friendly. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Most games can be played using everyday items from around the home and small prizes such as sweets, stickers, stamps or whistles can be purchased from party shops or discount stores. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;"><b>1. Pass the Parcel</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Wrap a main prize with wrapping paper. Continue adding wrapping layers and include a small treat with each layer. Have all guests sit in a circle and pass the parcel around to music. When the music stops the person holding the parcel unwraps a layer, until all the layers are removed. </span><span style="font-size: large;">You can also use a 'parcel box' instead and fill with treats and kids choose a prize from the box when the music stops on them. Easy to use your own box or purchase an electronic Pass the Parcel box. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Fill some small tubs with water and add a few apples to each. Contestants then kneel down and hold their hands behind their backs. It is then a race to see who can pull out an apple in their mouth/teeth without using their hands. (Close adult supervision is obviously required for this game!) </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Have the two people hold the limbo stick (you can use a broom/mop stick). Start the game by holding the stick about 1.5m from the ground. Everyone in line must then go under the stick by walking forward and bending backward under the stick. If someone touches the stick they are out. Once everyone has had a turn going under start again by lowering the stick. Continue lowering the stick each round until there is only one player that can make it under the stick.</span></div>

Ethan chose a Knight theme and invited a few of his closest little friends to help him celebrate. I always enjoy the kids parties but I have to say this was the best party ever! Not the set up (though I was stoked with how it turned out) but it was just such a good time. Such a beautiful group of kids and parents and the kids were all singing and laughing and had a ball, made me truly happy!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #53310e; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #53310e; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #53310e; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">Ethan was very particular about what he wanted for his party and wanted a sit down 'feast' as close to what they would have had in medieval times and it definitely had to include a 'big chook'. With Ethan being coeliac all of the party food was gluten free and we set up the feast table to include chicken, meatballs, bread rolls, ham, cheese, crackers, fruit, muffins & banana bread. We used the most beautiful candelabras from The Mercedes Project to decorate the table and the kids loved using the fun jewelled drinking goblets.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #53310e; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #53310e; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #53310e; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">As we had the feast table we opted for a simple dessert table with a few yummy sweets and the birthday cake. Our room as decorated with various medieval props and decorations to create the look of a dining hall.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #53310e; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #53310e; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #53310e; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">We had a whole heap of blow up swords for the kids to play with and we also played bobbing for apples which was so funny and the kids loved and then the regular pass the parcel and pinata.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #53310e; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #53310e; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #53310e; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">We had a fantastic time celebrating Ethan's birthday and would like to say a huge thanks to all the gorgeous ladies who supplied goodies for the day!

Declan had initially wanted a Horse party this year but a few months ago he changed his mind. He wasn't too sure what he wanted so we looked through some fun themed tableware and he chose Sharks as his theme, with a Beach feel though as opposed to Under the Sea. This party was so bright & fun to plan and is definitely one of my favourites so far. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #53310e; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #53310e; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #53310e; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">Declan started kindy this year so we had a school party and he was very excited to have all his little friends over to play. The party was fantastic and everyone had a great time. It ended up being a very wet and stormy morning so we had to move the activities/play area inside but other than that all went off without a hitch.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #53310e; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #53310e; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #53310e; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">I hope you enjoy the photos!

<i style="background-color: white; font-family: 'PT Sans'; font-size: small; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Charlotte's Frozen Third Birthday by Elise Easdown, Managing Director of Whats on 4 Little Ones Australia. </span></i></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 1em;">
<br /></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 1em;">
<span style="font-size: large;">My daughter Charlotte along with millions of other girls around the world has fallen in love with the Disney musical movie – <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Frozen</em>.</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 1em;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I happily agreed to this theme choice for her 4th birthday as I knew it was going to be an easy one to plan for and naturally Pinterest became my place for inspiration.</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 1em;">
<span style="font-size: large;">As the girls attending were going to be 3-4 years, I wanted to be keep it simple yet hands on and allow a range of activities to keep them busy.</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 1em;">
<span style="font-size: large;">For entertainment, this is where the possibilities were endless!</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 1em;">
<span style="font-size: large;">After welcoming the children when they arrived they were directed to the colouring activity. I had Frozen colouring in sheets from <a href="http://www.wdistudio.com/FRZN/FRZN_activities.pdf" sl-processed="1" style="-webkit-transition-delay: initial; -webkit-transition-duration: 0.3s; -webkit-transition-property: all; -webkit-transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; box-sizing: border-box; color: #1185d7; text-decoration: none;">here</a>.</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 1em;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It was during this time our Face painter worked her magic and created Frozen inspired faces on the children.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">For the water, I purchased some bottled water from the supermarket and printed the labels myself.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Firstly the invitations… I left these way too late to organise but was really happy with my choice of Elsa themed designs. The invites came with a magnet to attach on the back and envelopes, which could be purchased as well which I did to make it easier. They were also super cheap at a dollar each from <a href="http://www.bargainpartysuppliesaustralia.com.au/" sl-processed="1" style="-webkit-transition-delay: initial; -webkit-transition-duration: 0.3s; -webkit-transition-property: all; -webkit-transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; box-sizing: border-box; color: #1185d7; text-decoration: none;">here</a>.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">The decorations I kept simple and grabbed some white pom poms and ice blue snowflake inspired designs from a local discount store. I also pulled a few Christmas decorations! A little warning – because of Frozen mania it can be hard to find decorations in stores so it’s wise to look online also. Don’t even think about trying to find a star shaped cookie cutter <span class="wp-smiley emoji emoji-smile" style="box-sizing: border-box; display: inline-block !important; min-height: 1.2em; overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: hidden; position: relative !important; text-indent: 9999px; vertical-align: bottom; white-space: nowrap; width: 1.35em;" title=":)">:)</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">We made sausage rolls for the kids and camembert cheese and quince paste quiches for the adults. I then added a few sweet foods including strawberries (perfect this time of year in QLD) dipped in white chocolate (frozen hearts from the movie), blue jelly cups (ice), pretzel sticks dipped in white chocolate (branches with snow) and pink wafer biscuits, plain chips and blue lollies.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Hands up who has ever shed a few tears over birthday cake decorating ? <i>(I doubt I am alone haha)</i></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I think for a lot of parents (myself included), birthday cake decorating can be one of the most stressful parts of birthday party preparation. I think most of us have probably spent a late night or two frantically trying to finish a 'masterpiece'<i> (and most likely cursing said master piece)</i> wondering how on earth a task seemingly as simple as icing a sponge cake can be so difficult and why oh why did we leave the cake decorating until the night before! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">So I thought I would put together some cakes that are easy to create but still look fun & fantastic and are sure to please little party guests. There are recipes and tutorials included in the links making it nice and easy (and hopefully less stressful) for you to recreate these gorgeous cakes for your little ones! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">If you give any of these fun cakes a try, we would love to see your efforts. Please feel free to share with us, we love to hear from you :)</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">This is one of the best kids cake ideas I have come across. Cover your cake in white fondant and let the birthday child decorate with food pens.

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">My lovely friend Tara from <a href="http://glutenfreehart.blogspot.com.au/2014/03/meringues.html">Gluten Free Hart</a> made some amazing meringues not too long ago and she has been kind enough to let me share her recipe with you all today. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Meringues are an absolute winner in my household and they are a yummy and fun party food. What I also love is that they can be made completely gluten free (with no comprimise in taste) which is great for all of us who need to cater for children with coeliac disease or gluten intolerance as it can often be tricky to find yummy sweets for parties that are gluten free. </span><br />

Any trace of fat can bring your meringue merriment to a screeching halt. Using an electric mixer, beat your egg whites and salt until soft peaks form, then gradually add sugar. Beat until mixture becomes glossy and all of the sugar has dissolved.<br />If you rub a little between your thumb and forefinger and the mix is no longer gritty, you're good to go. At this point, add cornflour, vinegar & any colour preference (mix until just combined).<br /><br />Use a piping bag with a wide star tip to create your meringues. Aim for about 4-5 cm diameter and allow space between each on a lined baking tray. You can sprinkle 100 & 1000's on the tops if desired (remember if you are needing gluten free to check your sprinkles as some brands do contain gluten.)<br /><br />Bake for 2 hours until meringues have a hardened shell and sound hollow when gently tapped on the bottom.<br /><br />Now for the hard part. The waiting..<br />Turn your oven off and allow meringues to cool for a couple of hours. I stick a wooden spoon in the door so it remains ajar whilst meringues are cooling.<br /><br />Well done! You made it. ENJOY! </imgsrc></span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Sorry about the long time between posts! I c</span><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">an't believe Easter is almost here already. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">I wanted to share a few sweet and simple Easter gift ideas that I have found and love, that make a great alternative to buying pre- packed Easter eggs at the Supermarket. Whilst little hand made gifts can be more time consuming, I think that they show a lot of love and are received excitedly by children and adults alike. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Some of these will definitely be used in our family this year ♥ </span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="text-align: left;">This option would be great to give as a 'family' gift instead of individual. Mix up up with mini Easter eggs & lollies. Then wrap the carton in some pretty fabric & ribbon.

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">There was never any question as to what my
soon to be five year old son was going to choose as his birthday party theme
this year. He had become Angry Birds and
Star Wars ‘obsessed’ and when the two came together in a marketers dream he was
hooked!</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Naturally the first thing we searched
together for was the cake. I had decided
that every second year I would outsource the cake to a cake maker. I find it makes for a much less stressful
lead up to the birthday experience and I was more than happy to have someone
else create the Star Wars/Angry Birds cake as I had no idea where to start. I returned to my trusted cake maker and decorator
here in Brisbane, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/MommyBakesInBrisbane?fref=ts">Mommy Bakes
Brisbane</a> as she had made my daughters Peppa Pig cake last year, which was amazing. You can see that blog <a href="http://whatson4.wordpress.com/2012/07/24/my-daughters-peppa-tastic-party-7/">here</a>.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">I gave Ella from Mommy Bake the basic idea that
we were after a cake that incorporated Angry Birds and Star Wars and that it
was to feed about 25 guests. Ella was excited
about the challenge and I was relieved to hand that part of the party preparation
over to her. The chocolate cake itself was divine with layers of yummy
chocolate frosting.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">The invitations were a template I used from
<a href="http://kidspartyinvites.blogspot.com.au/2011/11/star-wars-party-invitation-new.html">Kids
Party Invites</a> and had the details altered by Joni at <a href="http://www.mpluspr.com.au/">MPlusPR</a> which included adding the photo of my son’s face to the template. I then printed these onto photographic paper,
attached a magnet on the back and delivered them in a bright orange envelope,
my son’s favorite colour,</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"> It
wouldn’t be a party without a Light Saber and my clever husband got very crafty
with some coloured pool noodles and black and silver electrical tape. It took about. 1.5 hours to make 15 pool noodle
light sabers but it was well worth the effort.
At the party we had structured games with the light sabers and then the
kids had free play in the playground.
They kept them well entertained for over an hour and were very safe and
durable.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">I focused the food around Star Wars themes
such as Vader Veggies, Princess Leia’s pinwhee Buns, Padawan Potatoes etc. They were a great talking point!</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">I had cute food labels, food toppers and a
banner made from <a href="https://www.facebook.com/SweetheartPartyExtras?fref=ts">Sweetheart Party
Designs</a>. These added features really helped bring the
theme together. For the party favours I obviously
allowed children take the light sabers home and a little sweet treat of jelly
beans also made by Sweetheart party Designs.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Overall it was a fantastic theme and I’m
looking forward to what next year is going to bring. May the force be with you!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b>Origami-A-Go-Go Party by Guests Lisa Howe and Alison Kenter.</b> </span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Lisa and Alison,
the Origami-A-Go-Go Girls, specialise in teaching groups of girls how to make beautifully
constructed origami paper delights. A fresh, new party idea for girls aged 6
and up. </span></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US">Origami was HUGE in the 70s and with everyone loving a
bit of craft these days it’s making a big comeback in kindergartens, primary
schools and now children’s parties. </span>It’s good for
the brain, the experts tell us. It’s great for hand/eye co-ordination and excellent
at developing fine motor skills. It is also enormously satisfying – just ask
anyone who’s mastered the classic crane!</span></div>
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Lisa Howe and
Alison Kenter launched their ‘Origami-A-Go-Go’ party concept earlier this year
after finding it hard to manage the long hours of a TV career with caring for their
growing families.<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">“I fell in love
with origami all over again,” says Lisa, “when I discovered the most exquisite
1950’s shaped origami dress at a craft fair. It appealed to the little girl
inside me so I taught myself to make it and then I taught my nieces and
friends’ daughters. They soon became as obsessed as I was!”<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">The technical aspect
of origami is often overlooked but the construction of a 3D masterpiece from a
flat piece of paper is a marvel to behold. </span></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">“Origami
teaches you patience, precision and persistence. I look forward to hearing that my little
folding party-goers have progressed to careers in architecture, industrial
design or engineering, all because they learned how to fold a beautiful dress
out of a piece of paper!”</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Origami-A-Go-Go
encourages co-operation amongst the girls. Listening and concentrating is
essential to success and despite the educational aspect it is great fun –and
environmentally friendly!<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<b><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: large;">5 Ways
to Make Your Party an Educational Wonderland </span></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: large;">by Guest Blogger, Louise Jones from Learning that's Fun. </span></span></b></div>
<b><span lang="EN-GB"><br /></span></b>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: large;">Kids’ parties are so much fun, especially
if you’re not the one organising them! I know party planning can be really
stressful and hard work, but for others, they absolutely love it and really shine
when they plan a party. I’m definitely the shiner. I love parties and often get
called upon by friends & family to volunteer as a helper or dress up and
dance around with the kids. I love it. But what I also love are the learning
benefits for kids hidden in all that glitter and madness. So I’ve put together
5 tips to help uncover those hidden treasures and add a bit of sneaky education
to the process.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: large;">1.
Get Organised<o:p></o:p></span></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: large;">Get the kids involved in planning right
from start. This is perfect timing to
catch their imagination and add in some learning activities here and there
without them suspecting a thing. There are loads of opportunities in the
planning stages to practice reading, spelling, the art of handwriting and some
maths. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
</div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Write the guest
list - practice spelling their names</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Design the
invitations - I’m yet to meet a child who doesn’t love using the computer, so
design them on there. But if you fancy handwritten it’s a chance for the kids
to practice handwriting and get crafty with glitter & glue. Learn about
dates, times, addresses.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Make a shopping
list - again, practice some handwriting, spelling and increase vocabulary. You
might have a budget to stick to, so they can practice those maths skills
they’ve been learning at school, as well as the hard line that money doesn’t
grow on trees!</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Cook - Get all
hands on deck. Cooking and preparing food is great fun for kids and a chance to
work on those fine motor skills, not to mention reading recipes, learning
fractions and measurements.</span></li>
</ul>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: large;">Having a special theme for your party is a
great way to make that little more fun. But pirates and fairies are so
yesterday. I’ve got a few themes with an educational twist the kids will love:</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -18.0pt;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;">
</div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Party Kitchen
Rules – just like the TV show, in your own kitchen. Keep it simple, raw
ingredients, non-cook recipes and pre-chopped. Turn on the timer and see who
comes up with the most creative dish.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Art Smart – let
their imaginations go wild. Paint, play-dough, clay, coloured paper, pens,
markers, art smocks, brushes, whatever you’ve got, bring it out or stock up
from the local discount store.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Story Town – does
your child have a favourite book or genre? Have guests dress up as a character,
match food, decorations and games to the theme.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Alphabet Soup –
this is fun for the little kids. Have them dress up as something beginning with
the first letter of their name, make decorations out of letter shapes, arrange
your food in letters, grab out all of those alphabet toys the kids have been
hiding away and use them for decorations and games. Try games like I Spy or
Hang Man.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">When I grow Up –
get the kids to dress up as whatever it is they want to be when they grow up,
lawyers, police officers, dancers, teachers, soccer stars, shop keepers, vets,
artists.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Little Olympics
– if your kids are into sport host the Little Olympics. Egg & spoon races,
sack races, 3-legged races, hopscotch, shoot hoops, coights, hit targets with
balls for points. You could even serve multi-cultural dishes and decorate with
international flags of the world. This will keep them active and burn off all
those snacks too.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Mad Scientist –
here’s where you get to make a mess. Jump online and look for some simple
school experiments. Be sure to wear your white coats and goggles, and some
white curly wigs. Bi-carb soda and Vinegar? Can you clean a coin with Coke?
What do those bugs look like under a magnifying glass?</span></li>

<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Dancing – it’s not
academic, but it’s all about movement, rhythm, creativity and just having fun.
De-stress and let out all that built up energy!</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Story Time – do
you know someone who is a great story-teller? Get them over, throw out some
rugs and cushions and share some favourite stories with the kids. Get them to
make up their own stories to tell too!</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Scavenger Hunt –
everyone loves searching for treasure. So make up a list of A-Z, and send the
kids out into the yard, the park, the rumpus room and find something beginning
with each letter of the alphabet.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Charades –
creative thinking here people. Trying to explain something without using words
is tougher than it seems.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Giant Scrabble –
have you seen these on Pinterest? I love the idea, make your own giant cut out
letters, laminate them and send the kids out to play giant scrabble on the
grass. Adapt it to any board game…anything giant is way more fun.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Pass the Parcel
– who doesn’t love pass the parcel? But forget the lollie in every wrapper and
turn off the music, and go for dares or quiz questions that the kids have to
answer in order to “win” the next layer. Who can jump the highest? Who has the longest
hair? What’s a baby cat called?</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Bingo – and
finally good old Bingo. You can make your own or buy game sets. Use pictures,
words, numbers, maths sums and call out the answers.</span></li>
</ul>

<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: large;">This is possibly the most stressful part of
having a party. What do you serve? Do you cook, do you buy pre-made, do any
guests have food allergies? But what about the nutrition? The food going into
those little bodies is feeding their minds too. But that doesn't mean healthy
has to be boring. In fact, trying to choose healthier options is about the most
creative you can get! And, it’s another excuse to jump on Pinterest and spend a
few hours “researching”. So here are a few starters:</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -18.0pt;">

(cream cheese or peanut butter – remember the allergies)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Fruit Kebabs
(various fruits on a stick)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Fruit Pops (use
the moulds and fill with squishy fruits like mango and berries)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">DIY Ice Cream
Sorbet (beautiful in a cone)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Mini Pizza
(English muffins with your favourite toppings)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Mini Subs
(Dinner size bread rolls filled with your favourite toppings)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Corn Chips &
Salsa (cut up pita bread, bake in the oven & DIY Salsa)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Popped Corn (if
you have an air-popper, the kids will love doing it themselves and filling a
big cup like at the movies)</span></li>

<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: large;">So there are my 5 top tips to make learning
fun when you’re having a kids’ party. Making things educational doesn't have to
be boring, and certainly not hard work, it’s a case of identifying the learning
benefits during your normal planning. Even if you focus on one area for the
next party, you can feel satisfied knowing that you’re contributing to the
education of all the guests in your home, and hopefully inspiring them to be
adventurous, to get out there and learn about the world.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Got a birthday party coming up ? Before you get down to the nitty gritty party planning details, run through a checklist of the main party elements and create a basis for your party planning. Having a clear idea of the main details will make your planning easier and less stressful allowing more time to organise the fun stuff :)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<b><u><span style="font-size: large;">1. Decide on how many guests. </span></u></b><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">When planning your number of guests take into account your child's age, your budget and where you are thinking of hosting your party. If you are inviting your child's school friends, also take into account parents and siblings who may also stay for the party. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<u><b><span style="font-size: large;">2. Decide on your party venue and/or party entertainment. </span></b></u><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Kid's party venues are endless these days and there options available to suit all budgets. Some options are;</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">- At home</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- Parks/ Playgrounds</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- Play Centers</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- Sporting Groups</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- Restaurants</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Party Entertainment Options;</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">- Magician</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- Bouncy Castles</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- Travelling Baby Animal Farms</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- Fairy, Pirate, Superhero Entertainers</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- Toy Hire</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">- Traditional Party Games</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>(For detailed ideas on Birthday Party Entertainment and Hiring an Entertainer see our blog posts <a href="http://whatson4kidspartiesaust.blogspot.com.au/search/label/Hiring%20a%20Party%20Entertainer">here</a>.)</i></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<b><u><span style="font-size: large;">3. Decide on your budget</span></u></b><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">If you need to stick to a budget, set an amount before you start buying supplies or booking entertainment etc. Making and sticking to a party planning checklist will help you keep to your budget and avoid accidental overspending. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<b><u><span style="font-size: large;">4. Choose a Party Theme</span></u></b><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Choose a fun theme that reflects your child's interests or favourite things. Things such as your child's favourite TV character, story book, superhero or colour are great theme options or you could opt for more traditional themes such as Fairies, Race Cars, Princesses Under the Sea or Circus. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<b><u><span style="font-size: large;">4. Party Food.</span></u></b><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"> Make a rough plan of what food you will serve at the party. Try to keep it simple with a balance of healthy and sweet food options. Remember to also provide food and drinks for the parents/adult guests. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<b><u><span style="font-size: large;">5. Birthday Cake</span></u></b><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Decide whether you are going to make the cake yourself or whether you are going to order a cake from a bakery or cake maker. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<b><u><span style="font-size: large;">6. Party Bags</span></u></b><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Party bags/favors are nice way to thank guests for coming to the party and for the card/present they have given your child. There are lots of budget friendly party ideas for party bags with or without lollies. Kids love simple things such as bubbles, stickers, temporary tattoos, pencils or small books and these make great party favors. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Work out your basics and then you can get onto your more detailed planning. Keep your eye on our blog for our Party Planning Checklist coming soon! </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">As a parent i think its inevitable that one year or another (probably more!) our child is going to ask for a party theme of a licensed character. Something I often hear from Mums when their kids ask for a character party is ' uhhhh' or a straight out, we dont do licensed parties. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I'll be honest and say I have had similar thoughts when one year Ethan wanted Ben 10 (he opted for Jungle instead though). I'm not sure what it is about licensed themes that sometimes gives this reaction, for me I think an image pops into my head straight away of everything looking exactly the same as on licensed products it tends to be the same image on each item - table cover, plates, cups, napkins, straws, party bags etc. This can often appear very busy and somewhat overpowering. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Now, absolutely no judgment intended (we dont judge parties here, all parties are special and we understand the main point of a birthday celebration is not about the details) but today I want to try and show some ways to make your party beautiful and stylish but still incorporate a 'licensed' theme, that keeps both Mum and the special birthday child happy! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I'm going to use the theme ' Disney Princesses' as an example and show two different colour schemes, to create a party setting consisting of sit down table, party bags & decorations. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<b><u><span style="font-size: large;">Kids Sit Down Table</span></u></b><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I love creating a sit down table at my parties as I love the atmosphere it creates when all children sit down to eat together. I believe less is more and like to set a mostly plain setting and then tie in the theme by way of themed plates and centerpieces. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-size: large;">- Table, Tablecloth and Chairs</span></b><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Hire a child size table and cover with a nice tablecloth. I always use a fabric tablecloth in white or a plain colour that works with my theme, I recommend the same if using a plastic cover. Fabric tablecloths can be hired from your local party supplier or you can buy plain ones at Kmart for around $10.00 (make sure you iron it, before putting on your table!) Plastic table covers can be purchased at party stores or shops like Reject Shop, Kmart etc. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Childrens chairs can be hired from your local party shop. If available hire white or a colour that subtly compliments your theme. When setting your chairs out, I cant stress enough to take your time and make sure they are straight. You dont want to spoil a beautiful table top with crooked chairs, it may sound pedantic but a simple detail such as this makes all the difference to the overall appearance :)</span><br />

<b><span style="font-size: large;">- Plates, Cups & Straws </span></b><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I like to set both a dinner plate and dessert plate on my table. I usually opt for a plain dinner plate and then set a themed dessert plate on top/middle of the dinner plate. With my cup I tend to use plain/patterned style and then add a paper straw (again make sure your straws are all set the same way and not just popped in the cup). </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Here are two examples of different themed plates matched with plain patterned tableware. Using mostly plain accessories gives you a stylish and classy look and when you add a splash of theme it becomes a feature and doesn't overpower your table. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>- Table Centerpiece</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">A pretty table runner can add a nice touch to the center of your table in a style/colour that compliments your theme. Themed centerpieces can be purchased in most themes, though you can also decorate with other things such as props - dolls etc, balloons or pretty flowers. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzsnyWj-sk3sIaQ5kYLOUMwoirjqdoX1hcl9rwK01A5ifobAJma3pTvFrxb2bcFJn6-zkLVomLSCsE5E_qevm55lLMAfNQD-kFe30MgG3DGtMnb5izUn1FmCQ5_LEneXkZBWU4g3swjiII/s1600/princess-birthday-party-floral-centerpieces.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzsnyWj-sk3sIaQ5kYLOUMwoirjqdoX1hcl9rwK01A5ifobAJma3pTvFrxb2bcFJn6-zkLVomLSCsE5E_qevm55lLMAfNQD-kFe30MgG3DGtMnb5izUn1FmCQ5_LEneXkZBWU4g3swjiII/s400/princess-birthday-party-floral-centerpieces.jpg" width="267" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">You cant go wrong with a beautiful bunch of fresh flowers on your party table, as seen on this gorgeous party by <a href="http://iheartsugarsugar.wordpress.com/">Iheartsugarsugar. </a> They have added some cute little Princess embellishments into the arrangement and they make a simple but very pretty table piece. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAF6ow2SCY93MfI-sBz8jzLTRyZJ5UPiZQkTQ0TjrzzldKFBkTAfXikWObpr7AbA-YSDZ8F3bjDUYOlyGt02YhjyKA8F9hpH_krAoEj1Csuau2XczMBIg_fLP8LBvxicSpSBPOPthIXKLl/s1600/Picture+155.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="287" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAF6ow2SCY93MfI-sBz8jzLTRyZJ5UPiZQkTQ0TjrzzldKFBkTAfXikWObpr7AbA-YSDZ8F3bjDUYOlyGt02YhjyKA8F9hpH_krAoEj1Csuau2XczMBIg_fLP8LBvxicSpSBPOPthIXKLl/s400/Picture+155.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Another beautiful floral centerpiece arrangement, also incorporating a little Princess Doll by <a href="http://kikis-list.blogspot.com.au/2010/10/5.html">Kiki's List</a>. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><u>Party Bags</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I love to have my party bags in view at the party (but up high so little ones cant get hold of them early). Party Bags are a lovely way to send off your guests and its nice to carry your party theme/feel into your bags as it is the last memory a guest will have of your party. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I love using party boxes myself and love the look of plain bags or boxes with a pretty gift tag or ribbon. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixBQ5HG7Vwy83WNAECJuRBxG2oJwIhcW50aWfETuMSZrOmtzfS6HhpaGGVnldLCaCvYbsZ47KAtpAWemDc0eTm8LTwi0piap3Vgg_k4owH2ESBX7DJvHSsC99csNN7bn6XEBikwmNp7b6a/s1600/PicMonkey+Collage.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="160" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixBQ5HG7Vwy83WNAECJuRBxG2oJwIhcW50aWfETuMSZrOmtzfS6HhpaGGVnldLCaCvYbsZ47KAtpAWemDc0eTm8LTwi0piap3Vgg_k4owH2ESBX7DJvHSsC99csNN7bn6XEBikwmNp7b6a/s640/PicMonkey+Collage.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><u>Decorations</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">There are so many beautiful party decorations you can buy or make that can beautifully compliment your party. Balloons, tissue paper pom poms or fans, paper garland, buntings & more!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Both selections look really pretty together and we have created a stylish set up whilst still having a fun licensed theme incorporated in. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I hope some of these little ideas can help you see licensed parties in a different light :) I will be back soon with a follow on post on the Disney Princesses theme and provide more great info on where to buy supplies and fun food and cake ideas. </span><br />
