Face Painting with Art Attack! Add on face painting by local artist, Susie. Email: artattackkids@gmail.com
PARACHUTE PLAY! Enjoy playing with the large parachute. Adults and children work together to play with this colorful and ginormous parachute.
Water Play! Water is so inviting and cooling when it’s hot. Pair Water Play with Frozen Smash Cakes and have so much fun while cooling off. Spray bottles. Droppers. Funnels. Scoops. Reusable water balloons. Multiple bins with colored water.
PAINT & TAKE! Painting with tempera paint, brushes, and paper. Children take home their paintings.
PAINT & MAKE! Painting with brushes, spray bottles, and squirt bottles onto white canvas fabric. Your children will use wooden mallets to crush chalk into their very own powdered paint pigment. It’s a crowd pleaser and accessible for mixed ages.
Worms! We read a book, “Diary of a Worm, or “Worm Weather.” We will bring shovels and tools for finding worms alongside your children. We’ll bring pretend earthworms and real earthworms in dirt.
Frozen Smash Cakes. We create frozen “cakes” using natural materials, flowers, and water. Your group will enjoy touching and smelling the “cakes” and admiring what’s frozen inside. They’ll smash the cakes using wooden mallets. They’ll melt the ice using water filled squirt bottles. It’s a crowd pleaser and accessible for mixed ages.
Mud Kitchen Play. We read a book about mud and bring supplies to your birthday location to create a temporary mud kitchen. We’ll bring our own water or an empty 5 gallon jug for filling, bowls, utensils, scoops, and a bin of peat moss.
Playdoh Bar. We make homemade playdoh and individually package one for each child. Children mix their favorite colors or scent (lavender or peppermint essential oil) into their very own playdoh to take home. Children play with their playdoh during the party with tools and cutters we provide. This is enjoyed by children ages 5+.
Catch the Stars. We read a book about stars and space. Our children will create a night sky on fabric using smashed chalk, water, and cornstarch. It’s a crowd pleaser and accessible for mixed ages.
Swatch: The Color Tamer. We read a book about a girl who loves color. Our children will “release” color by smashing chalk and painting on fabric.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY. We have a yard sign for your use, upon request.
