Pin
the Pigtail on Angelica
This silly activity requires a little preparation,
but will bring giggles from all your guests! Draw a large picture of Angelica
on butcher paper, posterboard, or a piece of cardboard. Sketch both of her pigtails
on the drawing, color one of them in and leave the other one outlined. Then draw
and cut out one pigtail, using construction paper, for each party guest. During
the party, tack your picture of Angelica on the wall, and place a piece of tape
on the back of each guests "pigtail." Gently blindfold the birthday
child, and let them go first in honor of the big day. Spin the birthday child
around three times and point them in the direction of the Angelica drawing. The
object of the game is to place the pigtail on the picture, as close as possible
to the appropriate spot. When each child has had a chance to play, award the guest
who come closest with a party favor!
Spot
Race
For this game, cut four spots out of colored construction paper.
Divide your guests into two teams and form two lines side by side. Give the first
child in each line two spots and instruct them to place one spot before them on
the floor. When the game begins, the children must step on the first spot, place
the second one on the floor in front of them, and step on it. While stepping on
the second spot, the child must reach behind and grab the first spot, and place
it in front again. During the game, they can only step on the spots as they travel
around a chair and back to the next child in line. The first team to complete
the course, wins!
Empty Tommys
Bottle
Your guests will roll with laughter during this game! For each
guest, you will need a small baby bottle. (Borrowing from friends and neighbors
with young children is the easiest way to find them.) Wash all the bottles and
fill them with equal amounts of juice before the party. On the big day, have a
bottle drinking race! Line all the contestants in a row, and give each guest a
bottle. When you say go, each child must empty the bottle as fast as possible.
The first child to finish is the winner!
Play
Pen Adventure
Create an imaginary playpen obstacle course adventure!
Use chairs, brooms, and big boxes to go in and out of, around, under, and through.
Divide guests into teams or time kids individually. For even more fun, have each
player ride a tricycle through the course.

Pen Punch
You will need: 1 - 10 oz. package each frozen strawberries
and raspberries, partially thawed; 1 - 12 oz. can frozen lime juice concentrate;
1 - 32 oz. bottle of ginger ale (chilled); 1 - 32 oz. bottle of club soda (chilled);
and 1 pint vanilla ice cream. Puree berries in a blender and combine with the
lime juice concentrate. Refrigerate until party time. When ready to serve, pour
mixture into a punch bowl and add ginger ale, club soda, and scoops of vanilla
ice cream.
Edible Play Dough
Your little rugrats will love eating and playing with this delicious dough! To
make this recipe, combine 3/4 cup margarine, 1 cup light corn syrup, 1 cup peanut
butter, 3 cups confectioners sugar, 1 Tbs. vanilla extract, and your favorite
food coloring. Mix together and slowly add 3 cups of flour. Beat until smooth,
and add more flour if the dough seems too sticky. Roll the dough into balls about
the size of a golf ball. Refrigerate overnight. On the big day, give guests a
ball of dough each and let them create monsters, animals, or anything that come
to mind. Provide plastic bags so guests can take their dough home to play with
and nibble on later.
Crazy Fruit
Kabobs
For this recipe, purchase kabob skewers and your childs
favorite fruits. Spear melon balls, berries, apple chunks, etc. on each skewer
and serve them sticking out of the upside down half of a melon. (Break off the
sharp end of the skewers for younger guests.) The visual effect is best if all
the fruit is skewered in the same order, with a strawberry speared on top!
Make
Your Own Pizza
This party favorite is sure to please! Make your own pizza
crust, purchase small ready-made crusts, or provide English muffins for individual
size pizzas. Place bowls of pizza toppings, such as cheese, sauce, pepperoni,
olives, green peppers, etc. within easy reach of your guests. Let each child decorate
his or her own pizza. Bake pizzas for 5-8 minutes, or until ready. Serve immediately!
