Mommy is big on themed parties. For my birthday party next weekend, she has a "wild animal park" theme. Although the party is at Crestwood Hills Park in Brentwood, she got a bunch of decorations to transform Crestwood Hills into The Brentwood Wild Animal Park!
First, she sent out invitations with wild animals on the top. You have to give people an idea of what to expect!
Mommy found beach balls with inflatable animals inside. Here I am playing with a giraffe in a ball. I can't quite figure out how to get to the animal inside! She bought clear inflatable balls with a monkey, a tiger and a zebra inside, too! She also bought inflatable balls in animal shapes. There is a giraffe, lion, tiger and elephant. I'm not sure which one I like best!
Since it's going to be a sunny day and she didn't want people to have to squint if they forgot a hat, she bought a bunch of animal visors. The elephant visor has a trunk hanging out above your nose! What fun! Hopefully we can get a picture of everyone wearing their visors at the party. That should make for a fun picture!
Because I like bubbles, she also bought little bottles of bubbles in animal shapes. I can't wait to break into those! I like to try to grab the bubbles as they float in front of me. Every time I manage to get close to catching a bubble, it gets away! Not fair. She also got paddles with attached balls for kids (big *and* small kids!) to play with at the party. The paddles are in animal shapes, too! What will they think of next?!
She is having lunch catered in, and asked that decorations to the side of the food match the theme. Even dessert fits with the wild animal park theme. I think mommy may have gone a bit overboard.
