Fairy Party

*this post was recently edited to submit to TipJunkie and ended up with my contemporary posts*

This Fairy Party was for my 5 year-old daughter. We had a houseful of little Fairies-in-Training who participated in our Pixie Fun.

• When the little 'Fairies in Training' arrived. They were crowned with Tinkerbell tiaras, and my oldest daughter sprinkled them with 'pixie dust' (shimmery powder).

• As they were waiting for all of the kids to arrive, they all colored fairy pictures.

• We played 'Follow the Fairy'- each little girl got a turn to put on fairy wings and twirl or gallop around the house with everyone following.

• We also played 'Pass the Magic Wand.' Kind of like Hot Potato- except when the music stopped and the child was 'out' it was actually a fun thing because they got to keep the wand.

• I then told them that Fairies had come to fix us lunch. It was so cute. Everyone went a little hushed. Here is what we served.

Fairy Bread [bread with butter and sprinkles]

Magic Wands [grape and marshmallow kabobs]

And Golden Nuggets [cheese cubes]

Also served, but not pictured, Fairy Fizz [soda pop with pop rocks in it!]

I absolutely LOVE to make kids party cakes. I have made a lot of them through the years, but I think that this might be my favorite. It is made out of rolled fondant, and it is so much fun because it is totally like playing with play-doh!

In all of my excitement to post Lilly's birthday, I failed to mention that all of these fun ideas were found on the internet. I just picked my favorites from lots of sites and put them together.
