Fairy Party

Themes & Decorations

Table

Choose a colour from the theme and cover the table in a large tablecloth.
Have a Fairy Plate, Fairy Hat, Fairy Napkin, Fairy Cup and Fairy Loot Bag for each guest at the table.
Make sure each guest has a Fairy Party Placemat.
Colour suggestions - pastel shades such as pink, lavender purple, apricot, lemon, white, pale blue using balloons and streamers.
Sprinkle glitter ‘fairy’ dust on the party table. Add pretty flowers and rose petals by scattering randomly on the table.

Decorate the chairs with balloons.
Use crepe paper to make ‘fairy skirts’ for all of the guests.
Make fairy wands by cutting some dowel (round wood available from hardware stores) to length, painting it pale pink, and securing a star covered in glitter to the end.
Add a “ Happy Birthday” Banner to finish.

Play ‘Pin the Wand on the Fairy’.
Play ‘Fairy Says’ (Simon Says) and give each child a turn.
Make a fairy posy using flowers from your garden and tying together with curling ribbon.
Make fairy gardens - use a small disposable plate, fill with dirt and decorate with petals and glitter and small leaves and sprinkle over flour or icing sugar through a sieve.
Have a Fairy Dance Contest.
Play “ Pass the Parcel” with sweets in between each layer, and make sure each child gets a turn.

Birthday cake suggestion

For a simple cake, try adding a Fairy Icing Plaque to a round, square or rectangular cake (18cm or 7’or larger), which has been iced with pale pink icing. Add lots of edible silver balls or hundreds and thousands (available from most supermarkets), and finish with candles to complete the look.
Make the food feel tiny and dainty
Small star-shaped biscuits decorated with pastel icing and edible silver balls or hundreds and thousands.
Mini sausage rolls.
An assortment of small star and heart shaped sandwiches.
Butterfly cup cakes.
Flowers and heart shaped jam biscuits ( belgium biscuits are ideal for this).
