My daughter is obsessed with rainbows. And unicorns. And her birthday is on Halloween. I wanted to incorporate all of that into one party theme…. and this is what I came up with.
Treats:
Rainbow slush. So good!
Rainbow M&M treat jar/ balloon weight
Cupcake stand decorated with rainbow ribbon. Even the cupcake wrappers are rainbow colors!
Activities:
We started out decorating trick or treat bags with rainbow stickers and markers. Once they finished that, they could work on making a rainbow fruit loop necklace.
While the kids worked, the adults mingled. I am still shocked at all the people we fit into our house!
Once the kids were done with their bags, Aaron read them the story “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”. Its a tradition to incorporate storytime into Boo’s birthday parties. I pick out the book- and Daddy reads it!
In the basement, we had unicorn races. I made my own stick horses using socks and a broomstick and added a foam cone to make it a unicorn.
We also played with a colorful parachute and rainbow balls. The kids had a riot with this activity!
Our culmintating activity was rainbow trick or treating. We have 6 doors upstairs that I decorated with tissue paper. Luckily I had some awesome volunteers who stood behind each door and passed out candy that was the same color as the door.
Happy Teaching! And Happy Party Planning! 🙂
