Minnie Mouse Party

One year after a trip to Disneyland my daughter wanted a Minnie Mouse party for her 6th birthday party.

To start with, I'll tell you that this was one of my favorite parties of all time. We couldn't find any party merchandise that was in Minnie's red and white polka dot colors, so we did everthing in red, black and white. Streamers, balloons, and lots of them. (I love those color combinations together!)

For a cake we had a red round cake and covered it with large white polka dots.

For favors we gave Minnie Mouse bean bag type dolls (although any Minnie Mouse item could do!)

Arrival activity: As each guest arrived they crawled thru a "mouse hole" (hole in a cardboard box) to get to the party area. They were turned into mice by given a “mouse ears” headband. These were made by covering a headband with black grosgrain ribbon and hotgluing two black craft foam mouse ear shapes to the top of the headband. Between the ears was a red and white polka dot ribbon.

Games at our Minnie Mouse party included:
