PARTY INVITATIONS;
We used cheap white card and envelope. Used red cardboard paper to make a big top for the front of card. Square base and canopied top. Square base to be glued on sides and bottom, top to be left open to create a pocket for admit ticket.
PARTY DECORATIONS;
We kept decorations simple. Used red/white crepe paper to make a canopy (big top) in the kitchen. Hung paper clown faces (which were homemade) from the ceiling. Bright tableware was placed around the cakes. A lion cake and a clown cake were centre of the table.
We thought it would be nice for the children to have an ‘arty’ party so we put felt tips, glitter, glue etc. around and lots of coloured card paper so they could make their own circus/clown pictures.
We also had a ‘face painter’ which painted each child’s face, we took a picture and printed each one off before the party ended and stuck it in onto their party bags.
Another children’s party game we played was each child took turns throwing darts at different coloured balloons. Whatever colour you popped, got to pick from that “colour” toy pile. Each toy was in different coloured bags so the children knew which one they had won from.
We then had an elephant game where you have to hook a ring around their trunks. Each child puts on an elephant mask and tries to pick up hoops with the end of their nose. Of course no party is complete without the clown piñata.
PARTY BAGS;
No party is complete without party bags so we filled them up with candy, crafts, prizes, and cotton candy bags.
