Our lil ladybug recently celebrated her 1st birthday!
Alot of time and effort was put into her special day!
Instead of bowls for the food, I handpainted $2 pots and turned them into ladybug pots! You just need to purchase a pot from your local cheapy shop, paint them and glue on back pom poms...I also added a few ladybugs to finish it off!
I also made sure the kids had plenty of activities to keep them entertained (and less chance of trashing our home). I purchased wooden wands from an craft shop and painted them up in boy and girl colours. The kids then decorated them at the party!

I set up an outdoor craft table for the kids to work their magic. Sure beats kids running havoc in your house trashing all the bedrooms! |
We then had a treasure hunt in the backyard. All you need to do is visit an art supply store or $2 shop and buy tubs of plastic 'jewells' and pirate coins. Throw them throughout the yard and give the kids a bag to fill up. The fullest bag wins a prize!

We also had pinata fun, donut games and then some waterslide fun (the joys of a summer party).

"IT'S MY PARTY AND I WILL CRY IF I WANT TOO" |
Instead of stuffing lollybags for the kids, they were all sent home with a personalised lollypop (littledance invitations...check them out...sensational products available)
Bring on the next party now......Number 3 has requested a Wiggles party!!
