Kids Party Planning - Everybody Say Hello Kitty
You can't consider kids party planning without considering a theme. Themes for kids' parties range from Superman to Hannah Montana, from High School Musical to SpongeBob SquarePants, and from Spiderman to Barbie.
If you have a little girl, then I'm sure you've heard of Hello Kitty. Based on the number of toys made in the likeness of this cute little character, she is guaranteed to make a successful theme.
If your daughter wants a Hello Kitty party, you will have no problem finding items for her party. Hello Kitty has plates, paper cups, banners, napkins, balloons, goody bags, plastic jewelry available. And the great thing is, you can find them at most party supply stores.
If you want to buy a cake, you should be able to find something at your local grocery store already pre-decorated. If not, the bakery should be able to put something on the cake for you. Bakeries have rules on what characters they can and can't put on cakes, so if your bakery can't do it for you, buy some icing, and do it yourself. Hello Kitty's characters consist of very simple line art without much detail, which makes for an easy drawing using writing icing.
There are many games available for kids to play at the party. One favorite that the younger kids enjoy is Pin The Bow On Hello Kitty.
All you need to do is make a large drawing of Hello Kitty (or commission an artistic neighbor or friend) on a 24 x 36 piece of poster board. Draw a number of Kitty's signature bows so that every child will have one. You can either decorate them yourself, or have the kids do it at the party. Have things like markers, glue, little jewels, and glitter available so the kids can personalize them in their own style. Make sure to use a little double-stick tape on the back of each bow so it will stick to the drawing.
When it's someones turn, blindfold her and spin her around three times. Face her in the general direction of the Hello Kitty poster you've created, and let her go. Whoever gets the closest to the correct spot on Hello Kitty's head wins a prize of your choosing.
Another great item they have at Party City (others probably carry them, as well) is a Hello Kitty pinata. The pinatas seem to be constructed really well, so the kids will be whacking away at it for a long time, and will have a ball doing so.
If your little girl loves Hello Kitty, you can't go wrong with Hello Kitty-themed party. This theme is a snap because the accessories are easy to find and there are numerous games and activities available. Your little girl will definitely love it.
