Games For 3 Year Olds To Entertain, Occupy, And Wear Them Out!

Games for 3 year olds should be simple to play. They shouldn't have too much structure and details for the kids to try to remember in order to play the game. You might be throwing a birthday party for young children, or find yourself with several little ones to entertain. Either way, if you're looking for some suitable games to entertain the troops, occupy their time, and wear them out, here are some great options that you might want to consider.

MUSICAL CHAIRS - Line up enough chairs as there are children in a back-to-back fashion. As music plays in the background, have the children walk in a circle around the chairs. When the music stops, each child must sit down in an empty chair. Remove one chair and repeat the process. Continue in this fashion until only one chair is left and one child successfully sits down in that final chair.

PASSING THE HOT POTATO - This game is a perennial favorite with kids and there's no need to only use potatoes. You could easily adapt this game to any party theme. For example, "Hot Kitty" could be a stuffed toy that looks like Hello Kitty, thus it would tie into a Hello Kitty Party. Start by have all the kids sit or stand in a circle. While playing music in the background, tell the kids to pretend that the potato is so hot that they have to pass it off as quickly as possible. When the music stops, whoever is left holding the potato is out. The game continues until only one child remains, who shall be declared the winner. To occupy the little ones who are out and give them a sense of still participating in a game, you could give them a potato that they can just pass around to each other. To keep things under control, you might consider having a teen supervise this activity.

KEEP THE BALLOON IN THE AIR - Give each child a blown up balloon and have them all line up on the start line. On "Go" have them all walk/run to the finish line while tapping, hitting, patting, their balloon to keep it in the air. It falls to the ground and doesn't break, that child may pick it up and resume the relay. If the balloon falls to the ground and breaks, you can have that child be out, return to the start line and get another balloon, or have someone rush a balloon to him or her and resume the race. Whoever reaches the finish line first is the winner.

THEME PINATA - This is an old favorite and generally brings lots of giggles, cheers, and happy faces. To help tie this game into your party, be sure to pick a pinata that coincides with your theme. You can opt to blindfold and spin the child around once if you wish or just, let them see their target and take a swat. Each child takes a turn hitting the pinata with a bat or broomstick. Eventually it will break and all the children will run to scoop up the contents and gather their booty.

SUMMARY - Keep it simple! The good thing about games for 3 year olds is that they don't have to be complex. You don't have to buy a book on party games either. Opt for the good old-fashion games that you and/or your parents played, as they are still great today. Update them by giving them a twist to coincide with your theme and you'll find you can create a lot of fun for everyone.

Music For Weddings or an Event

Your wedding is the most important party you will ever plan and the music is one of the key decisions you need to make. You should seriously think about the type of wedding you and your partner want before making a decision. It is not something to rush. Take your time and answer a few questions before deciding on any music.

yo gabba gabba toys

Is budget a constraint on the music you can select? Every couple has a budget. You should sit down and decide what you are willing to spend on music for the evening. Once you have that figure it is good to have a discussion about priorities. Is it more important to get the band you want or stick to the budget? This decision will vary for each couple but you should make sure you are both on the same page.

YO GABBA GABBA

Do you want a live band or a DJ? Is it important to have live music at your wedding or do you prefer beats? There is no right or wrong. As a couple this is about personal taste and the style of your wedding. A DJ can sometimes be a safer bet as most DJs will have a good mix of songs that everybody knows. A band gives a more personal atmosphere.

Is the theme going to shape your music choice? Think about the theme of your wedding party. Are you going to have a theme? The music will need to reflect this. Have a string quartet at a backyard BBQ wedding would seem an impossible fit. Do you want people to dance? You need to find music which suits your theme and encourages people to the dance floor.

Do you or your partner have religious or cultural requirements? If you are having a culturally traditional ceremony and reception then you will probably want the music to reflect these decisions. The music should complement the party not stand out like an awkward thumb. The band or DJ should play music which matches this. You may need time to source bands which reflect some cultures or backgrounds.

Is your couple taste or guest enjoyment more important? The music you choose should reflect your personal taste and set the atmosphere. You need to decide is it most important to you to reflect your tastes as a couple or for all your guests to enjoy the party. If you have your hearts set on a death metal band at your wedding, go ahead, but try to understand many of your guests may not enjoy the evening. You should try to select music that both you and your guests can appreciate.

Does your venue restrict your choice? Some venues may not be equipped with a sound system or space to accommodate every band. If you have already picked a venue then you need to make sure your music choice will be appropriate. Ask about noise restrictions, it is better to be safe than sorry.

Give Color to Your Party With Blue Birthday Invitations

Parties are designed to be special - and if they're not, they should be! Birthday parties should be especially memorable, and representative of the celebrant's tastes and preferences. Birthday parties that have a theme end up being more memorable than most - character birthday parties, retro birthday parties, candle parties, paintball parties, and color-themed birthday parties among them. If your celebrant's favorite color happens to be blue, having a blue theme for your party and your invitations is bound to be a hit. Blue birthday invitations should be part of the planning stage.

yo gabba gabba clothes

Blue may be a sad color, but it doesn't have to be if you're going to use it as a birthday theme. There are many shades of blue, after all - light, dark, somber and vibrant. If you're using a blue color for your decor, giveaways and even your icing, you should use a light and happy shade of it. Blue birthday invitations are no exception.

YO GABBA GABBA

Light-colored blue party invitations may still seem happy and light-hearted. Light blue and white are easy colors to mix and they could create a comfortable, easy atmosphere. Light blue being the most dominant color in an invitation made out of pastel colors would still make for a great blue invitation.

The choice of graphics also matter. Even if you want your invitation to be made out in monochrome, the pictures and clipart that you use would help a lot in setting the mood for your invitation. If you want your invitation to look fun, make sure to include balloons, cakes, gift boxes and even confetti made out in light blue colors. Glitter or blue foil is also an option - an invitation made of shiny blue material makes for a cheery invitation.

For invitations that have a more formal approach, feel free to use darker shades of blue. Dark may be offset with lighter neutral colors like gray, white or silver. Silver is especially elegant, so if you want a blue birthday invitation for an important event, such as a debut or a 50th birthday party, silver glitter, foil or ribbons would make for excellent additions to monochrome invitations.

A photo of the celebrant would also be a great addition to any invitation of any color scheme. Tone the shade of the blue coloring down to either the shade that the celebrant would most approve of, or a shade that best represents what the celebrant wants the party to feel like. Get the "mood" of the party right. This is always a mark of a good invitation.

And of course, the lettering also matters. Even with a blue coloring, you may control the mood of your blue birthday invitations - you can make it happy, sad, formal, informal, quirky or serious. It's all up to how you make blue work for you.

Kid Birthday Cake Idea Collection - Cake Decorating Without Fear

PARTY CAKE CONCEPT AND DESIGN

PARTY DECORATIONS

The most important kid birthday cake idea is choosing a cake concept which fits with your party theme. You can start with a simple sheet cake topped with small toys or figures, or piece the cake itself to form a unique design.

For example, a Construction Party cake could be topped with tiny toy dumptrucks and bulldozers pushing a chocolate chip mountain. Or, the cake itself could be cut, pieced and frosted to look like a dump truck.

For a Train Party, set a miniature choo-choo train on licorice tracks atop your cake, or line up several brightly colored frosted loaf cakes to form train cars.

For a Luau party, a simple round or sheet cake can be festooned with a silk flower lei, or form a string of cupcakes in a circle and adorn each one with silk or frosting flowers. Connect with a licorice string to make a cupcake "lei".

Baking cakes in an oven-safe glass bowl or in a special 3D sports ball pan is great for making any kind of perfectly round ball cake, or the dress part of a Barbie doll cake. A wonder mold cake pan makes small single serving doll cakes and other cute creations!

Think of the design you'd like to make and what shapes you need to make it - round, sheet, loaf, cupcakes, or a combination.

Peruse cake decorating books for a kid birthday cake idea which fits your needs. Many books provide templates forcutting and piecing cakes to create any number of popular designs. You decide just how simple or challenging your cake will be.

For a no-fuss kid birthday cake idea, apply an edible cake art image to the top of a frosted cake. Many popular themes and copyrighted images such as Disney are available to provide a professional looking cake design.

Themed cake pans are another popular cake decorating option. They provide the shape and visual design to follow for an impressive finished cake. Popular TV and cartoons characters are well represented in cake pans, as well as teddy bears, butterflies, pirates, Tigger,Mickey Mouse, and lots more.

FROSTING CHOICES

Homemade Frosting - Dig up that famous family recipe or check out one of the many online recipe sites and make your cake frosting from scratch. Be sure to plan ahead how much of each color will be needed for both basic foundation and decorative trim.

Canned and Tube Frostings - Easiest and quickest, prepared canned frostings are available in grocery stores in the baking aisle with the cake mixes. They generally come in white, chocolate, and a handful of other popular flavors. Keep a few ready-to-use tube frostings on hand in various basic colors to add the finishing touches.

Fondant Frosting - Gaining in popularity in this country in recent years, fondant frosting gives a beautiful smooth finish to your cake decorating creation. Fondant can be rolled out and draped over a cake, poured on as a glaze, or sculpted into shapes. It is easily tinted, and can be flavored as well. Ready-made fondant is available through party supply outlets. There are also many recipes online for homemade fondant.

CAKE DECORATING WITH CANDY AND SMALL TOYS

Cookies, candies, and other materials can be used for special and impressive effects. Frosted sugar cones can serve as the fins on a space ship cake or the turrets on a castle cake. Make a surprise cake filling with jello.

A wide variety of plastic stand-ups or cake toppers are available in craft stores. Or, simply use a toy which fits in with the party theme as a cake topper and give it to the party child when the party is over. Action figures, small dolls, animals and cartoon characters all make good choices.

Add cool candy accents with M & M's, licorice pieces, licorice whips, animal crackers, oreo cookies, paper umbrellas, pretzel sticks, tootsie rolls, jimmies, gummies such as worms, bears, etc, gumdrops, mini marshmallows, colored coconut, jellybeans.

THE LATEST CAKE DECORATING FADS!

There are many novel choices for placing the finishing touches on your party cake. Dress it up in style with one or more of these unique special effects:

Spray Color Mist - is a fun addition to your baking repertoire. Frost your cake white, then spray on edible color from an aerosol can. Available in many colors, it can be used with stencils to make unique designs, as a highlight to whipped topping - even on your child's mashed potatoes!

Luster Dusts - are an edible food safe "dust" which can be used on any frosting recipe that dries hard and firm to the touch. Brush it on white frosting for a metallic-like glossy sheen or layer it for interesting color effects.

Cake Stampers - can be used along with brush-on color for fondant icing. Simply stamp shapes and designs into the finished fondant and tint with brush-on color.

Cake Stencils - Place stencil on iced cake and sprinkle edible glitter, confetti sprinkles, or use spray-on color mist.

Edible Color Markers - These unique markers are used just like an ink marker. Draw fun designs on cakes, cookies, fondant frosting, even cheese, fruit slices and bread. Decorating marker kits are available for children.

decorative candles, themed cake picks and rings,and edible glitter

Party Decorations and Themes

If you're artistic, making your own party decorations can be extremely fun and cost-efficient. On the other hand, if you're pressed for time, celebration supply stores and online discount celebration supply sites can be a real blessing.

To make things even easier, some celebration rental services bring all the actors, party decorations and backdrops for you, if you're willing to pay for it. After setting your budget, we can examine the various options.

PARTY DECORATIONS

First, choose a theme for your party decorations. Some possible ideas for an adult theme celebration include: luau, western, circus, safari, Hollywood, 1950s, Roaring 20s, disco, space, pirate, sports, Las Vegas, Arabian Nights, medieval times, Mardi Gras, Spanish fiesta, rock and roll or futuristic.

Kids often enjoy character and pop culture themes, like: Spiderman, Pirates of the Caribbean, Bob the Builder, Dora the Explorer, Finding Nemo, Pokemon, Harry Potter or American Idol.

If you're interested in making your own decorations for a kids party, Coolest-kid-birthday-parties is a great resource. For example, with an undersea theme, you can follow step-by-step instructions on making a Finding Nemo pinata, a shark mouth standee to take photos next to and seashell party invitations. In addition to decoration ideas for various themes, the site also has food and activity tips.

If you'd rather purchase items, Party City is a great store where you can get accent themes like: disco, rock and roll, luau, movie night, fiesta, casino and western.

If you're throwing a fiesta, you can buy decorations like: chili pepper garland (.29), scene setters (), cut-outs ( - ), chili pepper lights (), an inflatable cactus (), a maraca centerpiece (), an inflatable sombrero cooler () and a pinata ( - ).

You might also want to check online at Orientaltradingpost for similar items. They have twelve assorted inflatable items for in the fiesta theme and great deals on bulk celebration favors.

Tableware and partyware add a nice touch to a theme party, often functioning as additional party decorations; however, the cost of these items can be exorbitant.

Most vendors sell plates in packages of eight, which is fine for intimate gatherings, but can be a nightmare if you're having fifty plus people attending. Partysupplydirect has similar deals for partyware but more selection.

A budget-conscious solution if you're not looking to spend 0 in partyware would be to purchase solid-color plates and cutlery but buy a couple of themed serving dishes, tablecloths and straws at half the cost. Another good way to stay on budget is to split expenses with other people and delegate partyware purchases.

While it is the most expensive option, hiring Premier Casino Events to provide the celebration decorations for you could be an elaborate and all-in-one, stress-free way to throw your celebration.

If you were throwing a Halloween one, not only would the company bring fog machines, coffins, cobwebbed park benches, trick mirrors and cemetery gates, but they would also bring casino games, ghoulish actors, music and food to entertain your guests for a full four hours as well!

Looking online for party decorations is a good way to brainstorm ideas. You may choose to make a few things yourself, like a pinata, or you may purchase decorations from a store.

Try to make your purchases thoughtful and don't waste money on things you'll never use again. Delegating responsibilities to co-planners can also help you cut costs and share the excitement with friends, especially when it comes to a surprise birthday party!

Some Really Cool Birthday Decorating Ideas!

The great thing about birthday decorations is that there are hundreds of different items to choose from. Birthday decorations come in every size, shape, and color and can match any theme you can come up with irrespective of how creative, unique or downright strange the theme is. But the really great thing about birthday decorations is how the right combination of color, style and theme can make anyone light up as bright as the sun.

party decorations cheap

Over the years people have literally revolutionized the traditional birthday party and the decorations. The results have been ingenious ideas brought to life by impressive works of art on display. They are, simply put, classically cool. So to help you plan an unforgettable birthday party, here are some ultra cool birthday decorating ideas that could land your creation in the 'classically cool collection'.

PARTY DECORATIONS

Chocolates, candies and chocolate coated candies are just some of the very many treats that are ever present at birthday parties. But don't underestimate the potential decorative qualities of these multi colored, multi shaped goodies, because they aren't just delectable munchies, they also make great centerpiece decorations! You can design fruit baskets, the baskets being made out of hollowed or bowl shaped chocolate and various fruits made out of candy. Purple round lollipops can be used as grapes, red and green jawbreakers can be used as apples and even different color licorice sticks can be entwined to make other fruits. The candied fruit basket is an exceptionally cool idea as a decorative piece for children's birthday parties because not very many children are fond of fruit, but you'll take them by surprise when they find out otherwise!

It's always nice to get unexpected presents isn't it? Well what if you were invited to a birthday party, where balloons hung everywhere and exotic flowers lined pathways while scented candles grace tabletops mixed with the natural fragrance of the flowers, only to find out that inside every balloon, between all the exotic flowers, alongside every lit pathway and under every candle was a surprise present. This is possibly the second coolest way to make decorations an actual part of the birthday party and the best part is that your guests all get to walk away with a little something extra!

So now you're probably wondering what the number one coolest birthday decorating idea is. Two words; Willy Wonka. Well not the actual character, but if you're going to spend all that money and time buying and putting up birthday decorations that will just have to be taken down and boxed or thrown away, why not make all the birthday decorations edible?

Now don't get the wrong idea here, it's not like you are going to create an entire chocolate factory. But why buy statuettes for centerpieces that convey the theme of the party but you will never have use for again, or serving dishes that match the color code of the party but goes with nothing else in your house or confetti that ends the party leaving you to clean up a big mess, when you can have all these decorations with no need for storage or dumping or a week's worth of cleaning when the party is over? Well, put yourself in Willy Wonka's shoes and try to think the way he might think. Make all the decorations out of candy and all kinds of sweets! And if you are adventurous enough go can go for the mother of all delicious decorations; the chocolate fountain! Kids will love the candy land you've made and adults will be amazed by your ingenuity. Now if that's not the absolute, ultimate, coolest birthday decorating idea of all time, then what on the green earth can top that? Nothing I say!

The split door is easy to navigate and the ties let you close it up for secret game planning. The mesh top offers plenty of ventilation and the PVC poles are safe and easy to put up. Approx 3' high. Easy to store after the party is over for later reuse at Halloween, summer parties, and more.

Once the party is over be sure to send each guest home with a Favor Box, containing a Yo Gabba Gabba radio, notepad, sticker sheet, and more. They'll keep the celebration going long after they leave!

As a Yo Gabba Gabba fan, I was surprised and excited to know that the entire gang will be out for a tour and I was hoping they'd start the leg of their tour somewhere near, but alas, the producers probably settled for wintery Toronto-- not that there's anything wrong that.

I saw them along with my 18-year old niece who loves Yo Gabba Gabba! just as I did and we partied out with DJ Lance Rock and the rest at the Coachella Festival. It was one hell of a good time. I'm saddened and at the same time, happy, that the Gabba gang are going out again to make more kids and kids at heart happy but oh dear, they won't be near where I live.

The Yo Gabba Gabba gang will be in Canada until September 19; their last spot in Canada would be the Scotiabank Place at Sanata. On September 21, 2010, the entire gang will fly back to good 'ol America and will start their American leg of the tour in Rochester, NY (specifically in Rochester Auditorium Theatre).

Now, as a child friendly show, most Yo Gabba Gabba tours will start early; the Toronto tour, for one, will start at 2:00 PM and might even end early. Their latest schedule would be at 7:00 PM in a few cities.

This is a great opportunity for your kids to get together with other families and see their favorite TV show characters live on stage.
