3 Year Old Fiesta

Don't forget about checking out Oriental Trading for decorations! www.orientaltrading.com

I saw a ton of cute fiesta decorations and plates and such at Garden Ridge as well as pinatas. Good luck! Sounds fun!

have you thought about getting a pinata? They have some cute one's up at party city. And all kids love quesadillas too -- cheese and chicken and cheese and some kids might even like the enchilidas too - but that can be kinda messy, I guess - -I gues you want more finger type of foods. And, lastly, try decorating in lots of primary colors, red, orange. You might even want to visit your local mexican restaurant for ideas on decorating.
And for a cake - how about getting someone to make a cake that looks like a sunbrao (sp?)
Have fun,

I agree with the taquitos idea. They are yummy and so simple. Plus, you can cut them in half to make them smaller for the kids. What about Quesadillas, too? They are so easy to make, even if you want the chicken ones- just add the pre-cooked chicken cubes. (I think Tyson makes them.) For a healthy "dip", you could try some plain or vanilla yogurt with sprinkles (yep, just like the ones for cupcakes) in little disposable cups.

For the cake, I was going to say a sombrero, too. lol If you are making it, it would be pretty simple, using a large pan and a small one (just stack them for the "hat".) Then, just frost it, and add Fruit Roll-up "bands" on the sides of the "hat"...or even make zig-zags out of the Roll-ups.

I would also recommend the pinata. They are so much fun, and kids LOVE the treats! lol Anyway, best wishes to you! :)

Cheese quesadillas would be a great item also. There is a GREAT bakery in Burleson that I use every time a need a cake - Sweet Imaginations - They are fabulous! Every year I take my sons invitation and they match it PERFECTLY to the cake! They also do smash cakes to match if you want one. They are the absolute best and so sweet! They have done kids birthday cakes, adult birthday cakes, bunko cakes, retirement cakes, baptism cakes, etc. for me and they are GORGEOUS, but more importantly DELICIOUS! They are right off of Wilshire.
