Tuesday Tip: Build a Better Birthday Party

Here's a few fun and relatively easy ideas to help make your child's upcoming birthday bash more fun!

Cupcake Bar
Great for all ages, but especially for younger kids, this activity is fun and tasty too! All you have to do is bake the cupcakes and let the guests do all the work. Set out cans of frosting, a variety of sprinkles, and other fun toppings like mini-marshmallows, chocolate chips, gummy candies and more!

Photo Booth
Use a sheet or create a fun themed back ground, round up a variety of silly props(boas, sunglasses, hats, etc) and have the kids strike a pose. You can either print the photos and send home with the kids or mail them out later as a way for your child to say thanks for coming.

Fun Favors
Let kids create their own party favors: tie dyed shirts, seedlings in hand painted flower pots, or if the part is a sleep over, pillow cased personalized with fabric markers.
