help me plan an aviation themed birthday party!!!!

[eenybeeny]

For my DS who will be 2 in August and is obsessed with planes and helicopters. I already have a very dear friend who is a brilliant baker making him a plane cake. So that is sorted. But I need decorations, party bags, and a present for him.

hire a bouncy castle with aeroplanes on it!

cut the sandwiches (which they won't eat) into plane shapes

Get a large helium ballon in the shape of an aeroplane

See if you can buy/make bunting with aeroplanes on it

Lots of balloons...I wouldn't worry about going overboard on the theme, you'll just be left with loads of toot leftover.

Get a huge cardboard box from Comet or somewhere and stick some wings on the side.

Present wise, do Fisher Price still do that pull along plane?

well I have no garden and very little money so the bouncy castle is out!

Like the idea of bunting! Wouldnt have the first idea how to make it...

Really like the cardboard box idea but I am having trouble picturing what it would look like... can you elaborate at all maidamess??

Sorry I have a really bad flu at the moment so I think my imagination went out with the 100th time I blew my nose! Thank you for ideas!!!

Get a huge box, lie it on its side so the opening is at the front.

Get some more card and cut into 2 wings, stick on the sides. they will love climbing in and out of the plane.

cool!!! Thank you!!! I can do that!!!

any more ideas would be great!! Love the plane/box one!

Gliders from Baker Ross? or helicopter balloons?

ASM - I love those!!! Thank you! Am thinking to get loads of the gliders as decoration (hanging from the ceiling) and the rest for party bags!

Make some paper aeroplanes for them to lob around?

If he's only 2, I'd've thought a plane-shaped cake would be enough.

nah pointydog I like doing parties. I always go all out when I throw them!
