Girl's Crafting Party

Have all supplies on hand or ask someone to help gather them for you. If you want some of the craft items could be brought by the guests themselves. You will want to limit the number of guests for this type of party. This is the not the theme to use if inciting the whole third grade. Remember to ask for lots of adult help for this type of party. It needs supervision and lots of guiding hands. Be careful, if this becomes a mother and daughter project, it might turn into a monthly club idea. (A wonderful bonding tool.)

Make sure to provide the usual type of party foods decorated to reflect your theme. Use lots of colored blotches of icing on a cake to represent an artist's palette. Decorate ice cream scoops wit 'beads' of cookie toppings. You get the idea. Serve party foods you want to serve, just adding an element to make it fit your theme if nothing else name it something that fits your party.

Add a game or two. Make a large cardboard needle and make the guests thread the needle with ribbon or yarn while blindfolded. Instead of Pin the Tail on the Donkey, paint the nose on the seamstress. You will need several copies of the same pictures and put each artist's name on their attempt. Do a relay game with balls of yarn carrying them n a spoon on use pincushions to play ball to game where they are thrown into a sewing basket. Prizes should be given according to the craft. Water paints, to poster paints, finger paint sets, brushes, acrylic paints, paint by numbers, beads, sewing cards, modeling clay, stitching sets, etc. all make wonderful prizes and favors.
