Cinderella Party Ideas
Its inevitable
that a princess party is in the future of most parents
with a little girl. However with so many options,
how do you choose which princess? How about Cinderella? Cinderella is by far the most well known Disney
Princess. Her beautiful dress and happily ever
after moment are the dreams of most little
girls. Making those dreams a reality for your
little princess is almost fairy dust easy.
Invitations
Idea
#1
In honor of a royal proclamation send a scroll
invitation. Find scroll paper clipart online and print party
information in the blank area of the scroll. At each corner
add
Idea #2
Print the party information
onto cardstock. Try to fit 2 invitations onto one
piece of cardstock if possible. Leave a half
inch of border around each individual invitation for
cutting. Cut each invitation out
carefully. Save as much of the border around each
invitation as possible. Find Cinderella clip art
online (preferrably clip art that has no background
image). Print the clip art on translucent or
vellum paper, again printing 2 Cinderella images on
each piece of vellum. Be sure to size the Cinderella clip
art to cover the invitation an leaving a half inch border all
around. Carefully cut the printed Cinderella images the
same size of the already cut invitations. The Cinderella
images should lay on top the invitations and measure
exactly. Using decal scissors cut a decorative border
around both vellum and cardstock. Punch two small holes
at the top of the invitation. Lace riboon through both holes
from the bottom and tie a bow on the front. Use
decorative ribbon or ribbon that matches party supplies.
Your finished product should be an invitation of Cinderella on
top that can be lifted to reveal the party
information.
Decorating
Ideas
Cinderella party supplies
are readily available at most party stores and online, but a
little originality will set your royal affair apart from the
rest. Cinderella's signature colors are sky blue or ciel
and white. Use these colors for crepe and
balloon decor.
Recreate the Clock Tower
using a long piece of cardboard or posterboard. (Use online
images or the movie for reference). Paint a
clock face at the top and don't forget to set the time to
midnight.
Your princess will need her royal coach,
so have a few pumpkins handy for transformation. If your party
is during harvest time, visit the pumpkin patch and pick a few
pumpkins to display in your party area. Try to get the
pumpkins with the vines. Its not likely that your local
grocery store won't have pumpkins. If your party isn't
during harvest, your local craft store should have faux
pumpkins and gourds. Jazz up with some fairy dust (fine
glitter) for an extra touch.
Menu
Ideas
Twelve O' Clock Pizza
- Using a regular round pizza arrange (or have
arranged) the toppings to simulate the hands of a clock.
Be sure the pepperoni clock is striking
twelve.
Pretty Blue Dress
Drink - combine any clear
soda with any blue colored kool aid drink. If you don't
like to give the kids soda, the blue kool aid drink alone
works too.
Cheese
Tray - Cinderella's little mouse friends may not be
invited to this party, but you can honor their heroic efforts
with a cheese tray they would love!
Pumpkin Dip
- This sweet dip makes an ultra
cute centerpiece. Find a simple pumpkin dip recipe
online. Serve dip in a hollowed out pumpkin. You
can add stickers or paint a design to the outside of the
pumpkin to add flare. Allow pumpkin to dry before adding
dip. Serve with graham or cinnamon graham
crackers.
Party Game
Ideas
Thats My
Shoe! - Hide several shoes around the
party area. Whoever finds the most shoes wins. You
can purchase shoes at a local thrift
store.
Kiss The
Frog - similar to Pin the tail on
the donkey, whoever places the lips closes to
the frogs mouth gets her
prince!
Fairy Godmother Makeover
- purchase Cinderella dresses for the girls (if
there are boys, purchase knight or prince
attire) and get them ready for the ball. Be
sure to take before and after photos for each child. You
can find princess party dresses sold in bulk
online.
Whatever you decide to do, ask the
Princess birthday girl what she thinks will be a hit with
her and her friends. A princess knows what she
wants! The royal ball is sure to be an enchanting
and majestic
affair.
