Little Mermaid Birthday Party

If you have a little girl in your family

chances are she has an

obsession with

Disney Princesses

Our sweet grand daughter

has inherited the Disney bug

and for her 4th Birthday

asked for a 

Little Mermaid Party

It might have something to do with

 meeting 

THE REAL ARIEL 

in the Royal Hall

at Fantasy Faire

in Disneyland a few months ago.

BIG Moment!

 Our daughter Amy hosted

a very creative

Under The Sea 

themed Party

at very little $$$.
I admire our daughter
who makes things
very fun
and yet doesn't go overboard on cost.

I wanted to share with you some of her ideas

that worked perfectly for little girls.

 As the children arrived at the party

each was given a crown

and then led

to a table full of art supplies.

With inexpensive glitter and self adhesive 

sea life foam stickers...

 each little girl made their own

personalized door hanger.

The next art activity

involved pink and purple bubble gum.

Amy had previously put holes in each gum ball with a

wooden skewer

and then provided a large embroidery needle

strung with ribbon

that was knotted at one end.

 Because of the young age group

this was an activity that required adult supervision.

Each child hand select their own color pattern

and then we noticed if we held the needle,

they were coordinated enough to

thread the gumballs.

 Every Princess needs

her own

Pearl Necklace

 For the games,

Amy wanted each little girl to feel as if she won.

Instead of musical chairs (where you lose when you are out)

she chose a form of 

Cake Walk

 Under The Sea music was played as the girls walked in a circle.

When the music stopped

each found a Princess Card to stand on.

Who ever was standing on

Sebastian (for example)

came out of the game

to receive a prize

and the game resumed for the others.

 The girls loved their prizes of 

bubbles 

that also served as

take home gifts.

 There was plenty of 

Little Mermaid 

food

Amy stayed with the 

Under The Sea Theme

providing

cups of gold fish crackers

and nutritious fruit

Even the brownies

were cut out into star fish shapes.

 By twisting streamers

the walls gave the effect of being 

underwater

But the best part

after all the games, food and presents

was getting hugs and kisses 

from a wonderful Mommy and Daddy.

We feel so fortunate to have 

had 4 years of amazing
heart stealing moments with 

this precious little girl.
