Christmas Wishes

With Christmas only days away – from my family to yours – I’d love to wish you a merry and bright Christmas with your family and loved ones!

It has been a difficult year for all of us and I hope this Christmas is a time you can reconnect and celebrate and enjoy a sense of normality we have missed this year. I hope some of the calm and joy of that very first Christmas will be with you over the Christmas season.

Over this season if you haven’t had a chance to view our latest free issue of “Celebrating Little One’s” magazine online please view it here:

 

 

You’ll find this gorgeous Christmas gingerbread themed shoot on the front cover by Alysia Bridger Events along with many more shoots and kids party vendor features to inspire your 2022 parties!

As you start planning your summer celebrations don’t forget to view our magazine, our instagram or our directory to find the best kids party vendors for all your kids parties!

In 2022 I look forward to more magazine issues to share with you + for those in our industry we have our Celebrate Conference and more in person meetups/events for our members and industry!

For now enjoy your Christmas and holiday season and I truly hope for a joyful and more “normal” 2022!

Trolls Party Feature

 

Sing. Dance. Hug. Repeat! That was the vibe at Ethan’s Trolls inspired 5th birthday party which was as vibrant and full of energy as the birthday boy himself! Put together by some wonderful Perth vendors I am excited to share this party with you!

The showstopper was the brightly coloured streamer wall, inspired by Troll hair, together with giant balloon clouds. These set the theme and colour palette for the entire Trolls party.

So as not to detract from the colour-blocked streamer wall, they chose to display only the cake using a single clear plinth.

 

The amazing Trolls birthday cake featured Ethan’s favourite Troll Branch, with blue fairy floss for iconic Troll hair. How fantastic is it?

 

They wanted the children’s tables to be packed full of colour and texture – a sensory overload reminiscent of Trolls Village. They definitely achieved this as you can see:

 

 

Three Troll hair balloon twist centrepieces were colour matched perfectly with the streamer wall and were a great way of adding height to the children’s tables.

Oh Happy Day cloud and ‘happy’ yellow plates were crafted into Cloud Guy and Trolls Flower characters, whilst napkins and cutlery were placed in handmade felt pockets featuring iconic Trolls felt flowers and decorative buttons.

 

 

Trolls flowers also featured on acrylic coasters and drink swizzle sticks, whilst vinyl characters appeared on the milk bottles.

Acrylic risers filled with balloon twist flowers were used to display food on the children’s tables for easy access.

Any remaining tablespace was filled with glitter toadstools and mini balloons to match centrepiece colours.

 

Favors included Trolls Hair cotton candy bags, together with pink and blue tulle Troll Hair Chupa Chups.

Guests were kept entertained with a ball pit with pink, blue and yellow pops of colour which stood out amongst the crisp white.

 

A Trolls themed bouncy castle was the perfect way to burn off the sugar!

 

We think this Trolls party is troll-tastic!! So bright…colourful and fun..just as a Trolls themed birthday party should be!

Science and Slime Birthday Party

Has your house been invaded by slime yet?

Ours has – multiple times! Thankfully I was worded up on a handy tip to use vinegar to remove it from any surface (including carpet), so the slippery, slimey fun can continue. It’s since sparked a wave of interest in science experiments and my kids have even been creating more slime at school…and bringing it home (*thank you…not*)!

A science and slime party theme is perfect for inquisitive school aged children, and we’ve found some great items to help pull it all together – and then watch an episode of Myth Busters or Operation Ouch! for some more inspiration!

Science and Slime Party decorations

Pick your favourite coloured slime and go to town with weird and wonderful textures, shapes and props. You can find lots of things at home to use such as chalk boards and glass jars – just fill with water and food colouring for added effect! You can go with any colours for a slime or science party theme but we have included lots of green items for the typical slime/science party look:

A table amongst the madness set with coordinated slime coloured tableware will be enough to pull the little scientists away from the experiments long enough for cake.

Science and Slime Party Entertainment

Some things are sometimes best left to the experts, and out of the house! So consider a party entertainer that can supply all the equipment or a venue that doesn’t require you to clean up for the ultimate in messy science fun!

It’s so great to see kids interested and excited in science, so why not encourage it with a science and slime party. Mums and Dads might even enjoy it too!
