Princess
Crowns, castles and a royal tea party, with a throne for the birthday guest.
Best for ages 3 to 8
A princess party is a royal court for an afternoon: rose pink, royal purple and plenty of gold. A crown or tiara at the door, and a decorated chair as the birthday throne, set the scene before anyone has taken off a coat.
A royal tea party is the heart of it, with tiny sandwiches and juice in teacups. Add a crown decorating table and a royal ball with a freeze dance, and the court will not want to go home.
