S.
These are ideas from when I did my party have them all on my e-mail saved!
Dress your birthday princess up before the party, with a Cinderella Tiara
and Jewelry. Announce the guests upon arrival and escort them to the royal preparation table, where they will receive a small amount of lipstick, blush and eye shadow. If you have not already suggested the girls wear their favorite dress-up dress...provide a box of special dress up clothes and a mirror.
Princess Face Painting
Purchase standard face paint or make your own:
1 tsp. cornstarch
1/2 tsp. water
1/2 tsp. cold cream
2 drops food coloring
In a small mixing bowl, combine all ingredients, mix well.
Images to paint for this theme are: roses, tiaras, glass slippers, twinkling diamonds or stars, castles and hearts. We use a very fine dusting glitter
to make every picture sparkle. You can find this in crafts stores or in the cosmetic department. Some children don't want a picture but may
want to have sparkling cheeks, Use Aloe Vera gel and the glitter applied with a Q-tip.
Cinderella's Glass Slipper Game
Before the party design a "glass slipper" , using silver spray paint, or glue and glitter, on a high heeled shoe. You will also need an old shoe for game time. Position the girls into a circle. Pass the shoe around the circle while music is playing. Ring a bell to signal the stroke of midnight. The player holding the slipper when the bell rings, receives the old shoe to hold, while sitting in the middle. She is then in charge of the bell ringing for the next round. At the end of the game every player receives a Disney Princess prize; necklace, ring, Disney Princesses fruit snacks etc.
Cinderella is missing her favorite things!
Place several items on a tray or cookie sheet.
Try to find items that work with the theme.
Tiara, lipstick, Wand or royal scepter, silver spoon jewelry, handkerchief etc. One player leaves the room. Remove one or two items from the tray. When the player returns they must guess what's missing.
Repeat until every child has a turn.
The Messy Stepsisters
Poor Cinderella, her sisters always make her clean up after their mess.
The object of this game is to be the first team to clean up the mess.
To play, divide the girls into two groups. You'll need clothing, shoes, plastic necklaces, hairbrushes etc. and a basket for each team. Establish a start and finish line. Then, scatter the items in a row along the ground from the start to finish line. When you say "go" the first player on the team will quickly gather one item into her basket, run to the finish line, return to her team and pass the basket to the next player. That player runs and gathers another item. this continues until all of the players have had a turn and the mess is picked up.
The Stroke of Midnight
The fairy Godmother has lost her magic wand!
Before the party hide toy wands in the party area.
The object of the game is to find a wand before the clock strikes twelve. Give the girls an appropriate amount of time to find a wand and then begin striking a bell twelve times.
Cinderella's Ball
It wouldn't be a Cinderella party without a royal ball!
Play classical music or the soundtrack from Cinderella or kids bop or any fun cd! while the girls and boys dance dance. When the girls here the clock chime (bell) or you can pause the cd! they must freeze.
Princess Puzzler
Before the party, print out Disney Princesses pictures from the Internet,
or use a coloring book. Attach each picture onto some construction paper with a glue stick. Cut the pictures into 2, 3, or 4 puzzle pieces. Hide the
pieces around the party area. The girls each need to find one puzzle piece and then find the the players with the matching piece/s.
Who Am I
Before the party, write the names of Cinderella characters on several 3x5 cards; stepmother, step sisters, prince, fairy godmother...
To play, tape the cards onto the girls backs, so that they cannot see their own character. The object of the game is to identify who is on your back, by asking yes/no questions of the other players.
Example:
Am I a girl ? Boy? Am I nice?
Do I have magical powers?
CINDERELLA PARTY CRAFTS
Princess's Jewels
Bead jewelry with string and plastic beads to make necklaces or bracelets.
Glitter Frame
Decorate Craft foam picture frames (craft store) with glitter glue and stick on jewels. Use a Polaroid camera to take pictures when the girls are all dressed up and wearing their tiaras. Each girl will have their own
picture and frame to take home.
Stardust Clay
Make your own play dough.
Provide each child with a ball of dough and some fine glitter (craft store). The children will work the glitter into the dough. Package each of the guests dough into a Zip -loc bag to be taken home as a party favor.
