Can I throw my son a ladybug picnic party? And any ideas of how to do it? :)

[Disenchanted]

He will be 2 but he likes cute things, hes not a laddy boy IYKWIM.

He loves fifi and dora but don't really want to go down that route.

So he loves dressing up so thought this might be good?

I wouldn't expect parents to dress all the kids up but can if they want to and DS can be a ladybug?

Little fish that is soooo cute!!!

Im definatly going to have a go!

Fab idea about the ladybird wings also!

Thankyou

Alternatively, you could make little individual cup cakes with red icing and choc chips for spots.

You could make a big picture of a plain red ladybird and do a "stick the spots on the ladybird" game with blindfolds - no winners, just for fun.

am I too old for one of these parties, will be 32 this year [hmm

am the right shape for it, could cover the big bump with red t-shirt and black dots lol

chocolate ladybirds

even cheaper here

disenchanted have sent you an email

found this on a party website too incase it helps

Themes & Decorations

Table

Choose a colour from the theme and cover the table in a large tablecloth.
Have a Lady Bug Plate, Lady Bug Hat, Lady Bug Napkin, Lady Bug Cup and Lady Bug Loot Bag for each guest at the table.
Decorate table with paper flowers made from crepe paper in red and black.
Decorations

Make balloon ladybirds by drawing black dots onto red or orange balloons.
Cut pages out of a Ladybird colouring in book and get guests to colour in their own place mat, which they can take home as part of their loot bag. Plenty of colouring pens, pencils or crayons will be needed for this.
Add pictures of lady bugs randomly on the walls. Secure to the wall with blue tack for easy removal.
Add a ? Happy Birthday? Banner to finish.

Games and Activities

?Pin the ladybird on the flower? or ?pin the spot on the ladybird?
Get each guest to colour in round rocks to look like ladybirds. Add pipe cleaners for antennae and black dots for the spots.
Play Pass the Parcel with sweets in between each layer, and make sure each child gets a turn.
Musical chairs or musical statues.

Thankyou dizzy

If you're anywhere near IKEA, I was there a couple of weeks ago and they have ladybird hats with black eyemasks with wiggly antennae attached. Was sorely tempted even though DS is only 8mo!
