Princess Party Decorations
Decorate with pretty pink tablecloths and sprinkle glitter and sequins on the table - then cover with a clear plastic tablecloth. Throw in splashes of purple or blue for fun. Cover the chairs with matching material then gather the material to the back of the chairs and secure with rubber bands. Place pretty flowers inside the rubber band for a elegant look. On the table place tiara's at each place setting. Fancy china would complete the look, or use pretty paper plates in a solid pink or grey. If you are using plastic cups make them extra special by sticking on “stick-on” jewels - looks really pretty with clear cups.

Attach pink and white helium filled balloons to the back of the chairs. For a royal entrance place a red (or pink) carpet from the street to the front door leading into the house. An easy decorating idea is to blow up lots (and lots!) of pink and white balloons and place them covering the party room floor. This sets the mood for a very special party and kids love to dance and move through them.

Hang clear Christmas lights around the party room. Streamers are also an easy way to make the room look festive. Cut 15 - 20 lengths of crepe paper at least 15 feet each. Start in the middle of the room and tape one end of each streamer in a 8 - 9” circle. One by one pick up the other end of the streamer and tape about 6 - 8 feet from the center circle. Create a dip in the center of the steamers - if you are feeling creative twist two colors of crepe paper together.

If you are adventurous , and a little creative, make the front door look like the entrance to a castle - including the drawbridge.

Princess Party Games

Princess Dress Up Relay Game
Gather two sets of fun clothes (long dresses, tutu’s, high heels, tiaras, hats, wigs, long socks … etc. ) in two baskets. Place the baskets at one end of the room and make lines with tape on the other side of the room where the teams will line up. Divide guests into two teams.  The first person in each line run to the baskets, put on the clothes … then run back to the starting line to tag a teammate … then run back to the basket and take off the funny items. When all the items are back in the basket they run to the starting line and tag the next person in line. The second person then goes and puts on all the items … etc.
