I decided to make a cut out of Winnie the Pooh with all his pals and put the party information right on top. I also asked the parents to bring a small item to put in Jessica’s time capsule that will be opened on her 18 th birthday.

I placed balloons starting from the main entrance all the way through the living room. They were tied together to look like flowers (long green balloons for stems and five large balloons of the same color ties at the top to represent petals). I also put the same balloons in clay pots on each party table. I also used streamers throughout the party area…it looked great! My friend, who is an excellent artist, painted a few murals to put on the walls. One was a backdrop behind the kid’s table. It was the entire Winnie’s forest scene. The buffet table included all the cups, plates, silverware and all the other personalized Winnie food items.

To keep the kids attention before the party started I needed a calm activity. I had them color a few Winnie the Pooh coloring pages. This helped keep the children in a calm state before the party started.

Food: The food served was great! Every one ate "kid" food. The platters were card board wrapped in aluminum foil and white paper doilies. The menu included cat face sandwiches ( ham and cheese with shredded cheese for fur cucumber strips for whiskers red bell pepper cut into little noses and pieces of black olives for eyes) a long – long centipede chicken sandwich with mini hot dog legs, potato twists, pigs in a blanket (mini hotdogs wrapped with bacon) mini cheese pies (made with fillo dough) chicken nuggets a house sculpture made from bread with pretzel sticks for the roof and cheese slices for the windows and doors filled with mini meat balls, a kiddy cheese platter with carved out yellow bell pepper filled with green olives the salad was bite sized tomato cucumber plate with hard boiled eggs decorated into penguins even the ketchup bottle was kiddy styled!, Juice was served to all kids and the older kids and adults got soda pop.
Cake: I ordered an excellent cake from our local bakery. I didn’t have a lot of time to make my own cake, but I would’ve enjoyed it, if I had the time. The cake was chocolate with vanilla layers with a nice creamy frosting in the middle. It had a picture of Winnie the Pooh on top. It was so good!

I tried to limit the number of games played, so I only picked my top 3. The first game was pass the box. I wrapped a box with 5 layers of paper. Then you pass the box around, just like in hot potato, but whoever is holding the gift gets to unwrap one layer of paper. Then the game continues until the final layer of paper is unwrapped. That person gets to keep the prize. The second game was called make a mummy. The children were divided into two groups and given enough toilet paper to wrap one child up like a mummy. The winning team got a gift. The last game was called stick the nose on Winnie (just like pin the tail on the donkey). This concluded the games and proceeded on with the food.
