One, two, three… Piper is THREE!! Each one of Piper’s birthdays has been very special with a fun creative theme. This year she really wanted a Princess Party. As we were walking down the party section at Target she saw Pirate hats and decided all on her own the party must be a Fairy Princess Pirate Party. Good thing because I was having trouble thinking of something fun for the boys relate to.
Decorations
I kept the decorations minimal and mainly used the items from our dress up station as decor. My favorite was the fairy wings on the chairs, and the best part they were a Dollar Store find!
Dress Up Station
The Dress Up Station consisted of crowns the kids could decorate, necklaces, bracelets, rings, fairy wings, and sparkly wands.
In addition, we had pirate hats, eye patches and foam swords for the boys and girls who weren’t too interested in princess and fairy stuff. I bought most things at The Dollar Store or Target and ordered some from Oriental Trading. The dress up stuff kept the kids entertained and made the perfect take-home goodies.
Food
We served an array of salads and appetizers, almond butter and jelly sandwiches for the kids and magic fruit wands. The wands were my favorite and not too complicated to make. All you need are skewers, fruit, and a star-shaped cookie cutter. :)My sister came to town and was immensely helpful in preparing for the party and helping with Kenzie.
Entertainment
We also had a bouncy castle that was a huge hit. Even my husband and I had fun bouncing in it with Piper after the guests left.
Kenzie, on the other hand, wasn’t so sure about it.
The party was a success! Piper had a blast and her friends and family all seemed to really enjoy themselves too! I love making Piper smile and she had a permanent smile on her cute little face all day long.
A special thank you to everyone who helped us celebrate Piper’s 3rd birthday! It wouldn’t have been so special without each and every one of you!
