Need generic princess party ideas - please!
I think my daughter would really like a princess party. i don't want to do disney princess - just generic princess with poofy dress, tiara, wand, whatever.
it's pretty much outside at our house, bounce house and water sprinkler thing-y, pizza and cake. very simple for the pg-lady to manage at the end of july in the heat.
since boys and girls are invited, i need some stuff for the boys that isn't all pink and fluffy!
what could i do for goodie bags for boys along the princess theme?
Re: Need generic princess party ideas - please!
also, i found gold foil crowns that i will likely use since i think they are gender neutral. and wand streamers.
just looking for any royal/princess ideas i can used for a mixed group of kids - thanks!
It doesn't fit the theme necessarily but kids always love to have squirt guns and water toys when they are playing outside. So I think you can easily get by with a stop at the dollar store for your goodie bags.
Here is an idea for a cake though! My best friend & I made this for her daughter's 4th birthday a couple years ago.
Like PP, I was going to suggest swords for boys as well. Sometimes you can find them in the dollar spot at Target. If not, there's always oriental trading: http://www.orientaltrading.com/ui/search/processRequest.do?Ntt=sword&requestURI=searchMain&Ntk=all&Ntx=mode%2Bmatchallpartial&N=0
Just a thought on the tu-tus: they might not be a good mix with the sprinkler thing. You could always stick to "waterproof" tiaras, plastic jewelry.
Maybe you don't need goodie bags, per se. How about a sword for every boy and a wand for every girl?
HTH.
