Birthday party decorations
Primary colors are in order here. hang streamers and balloons.
Place Baby Einstein (or similar) puppets and stuffed animals where they can be seen and played with. When entertaining little ones be alert to choking hazards. Balloons should be placed out of reach. Cover your table and set with Baby Einstein plates, napkins and cups. Use a stuffed monkey, elephant or giraffe for a centerpiece and attach a bouquet of balloons to the stuffed animal.
A special welcome
Upon arrival to the party, give each guest a cap decorated with their name and an Baby Einstein character. Painters caps can be purchased at a hardware store for less than $1.00.
Use fabric paints to write the names. Decorating is a breeze if you use stencils or painting sponges from a craft store; Lions, Monkeys etc.
