Party planning help please!!!!!!!!!!?!
Answers: I’m planning a ‘Winter Wonderland’ birthday party for a girl who is turning 15. It is going to be at her house and will be on December 1st. Since she lives in Florida it won’t be snowing so we’re going to use the snow spray for the windows and sprinkle the ground with fake snow. Their will be about 20-30 teens there and there will be both boys and girls. We are planning on it going from about 4-8 so it will be dark near the end of the party. We will have a fire at the end to roast marshmallows over and of course hot chocolate and hot apple cider will both be served. What are some other activities and games that we could use though? Also any ideas for food? Thanks! All of your input is greatly appreciated :)
1.We live in Virginia and it doesn't snow that much in my area. We bought a light decoration off of QVC/HSN that uses a mirror and light system similar to a disco ball, except that it is designed to project a huge image on a building that looks like falling snow. I'll try and find the order info, don't have it now, sorry.
2.Also, you can get one of those giant inflatable snow globes for the outside, it's lighted and uses an airblower to blow fake snow inside the globe over frosty the snow man and some penguins and whatever is inside the giant globe, they sell those at K-Mart and Wal-Mart.
3.Don't forget glitter, Blue, White, and Silver Glitter sparkles like snow and ice.
4.You could have snow cones and popcicles, and have somebody dressed as jack frost serving the food
5. You could make S'Mores
6.Have a pinata set up shaped like frosty the snow man or rudolph or something.
7. Give Her A Big Stuffed Polar Bear as a gift.
8.Have the T.V. set up in the background and put in a DVD like Happy Feet or Ice Age I or II and just let it continuously play.
Have some snowflakes, drinks, dim lights, disco ball.
Fake snowball fights, disco, take the kids to a ice skating arena..
Wow, sounds like you've really done your planning. You could serve snowman or snowflake shapped food. as it's near Christmas, it shouldn't be too hard to find wintery-shapped food.
The great thing with kids is they are great at intertaining themselves. make sure there is music, if it is outside you could do a scavenger hunt. Let them roast there own hot dogs to. serve with chips, fruit and maybe homemade mac-n-cheese. have a make your own sundea bar.
Have a christmas tree with decorations or have them make decorations and let them trim the tree. and as someone already said have a snowball fight
Silver and white are great colors to set the mood for a winter wonderland. You can purchase batting at any discount store or fabric store. Spread it out all over. Sprinkle with silver confetti or glitter - shimmery effect. Use it also around the food table. Use white bag luminaries with tea lights surrounding the area around the fire. Have each person cut out a design on the foled bag to make a snowslake - each one will be unique. Clear juice glasses with crystal like cut glass bottoms, place tea lights in each for a beautiful glow. Go to the local thrift shop - they can be all different to show different effects. For food - keep it simple - finger food. Pigs in a blanket -
refrigerated rolls - cut in strips fold around hotdog cut in 1/4s one cut lengthwise and the other in half. Have various condiments to dip. Chips, pizza squares. Snowball cupcakes piled on a cake plate would be an interesting centerpiece and dessert. The plans you already have made with the fire and such will surely be a hit. Oh yeah, music, music, music.
