Dora Birthday Party

Come on!  Vamanos!

So here is a short birthday from the past.  We had a Dora birthday for my daughter’s 2nd birthday.

I made backpacks from felt for all of the kids.  When they arrived they were greeted with the backpack and a map inside that I made for the party.  We had a Dora adventure using the map. It consisted of:

1)  Backpack Brain Teaser – They had to feel inside a backpack and figure out the objects that were in there.

2)  Maraca Mountain – A table set up with maraca’s for everyone to decorate.

3)  Musical Valley – A version of musical chairs but using print outs of characters from Dora to stand on.

4)  Blindfold Forest – There were treats hidden in the back yard for the kids to find

5) Pinata Playground – We ended with the big Dora pinata.

Food – We had mexican food to go with the dora theme.  On the tables I set out chips and salsa, tortilla roll-ups, and dora fruit snacks.  For lunch, we had enchiladas and beans.

It turned out to be a great fiesta with a lot of food and fun!

Everything Ice Cream

July is national ice cream month so why not throw an Ice Cream Social for some friends or just think of ways to incorporate ice cream into your next event.  It can be a great reason for a summer gathering or just a fun way to serve and enjoy some ice cream.

Look at the cute invitations from Fine Stationery.
