Tips for Children’s Birthday Party – Plush Animals’ Party

If you are tired of planning your child’s birthday every year in the same way, let me give you one great suggestion. Plush toys party! It may sound a little bit weird at the beginning, but when I am done explaining it, I am sure you will be thrilled. And the best thing is that  your child will also be thrilled for not having the old-fashioned way of celebrating his or her birthday. The thing about this party with plush animals is that all of your child’s guests should bring from home their favorite plush toy. Of course, you have to have a couple of extra stuffed animals at your home, just in case that some guest forgets his or her toy. And that happens often. I can tell it from my own experience. That is why you have to have as a host, an extra toy to jump in when necessary. When all the children had come, the plush party can start. Here are a few suggestions for the plush party to become the best party in town.

One of the games that can be played on the plush party is the ‘treasure hunts’. You have to prepare this game in advance. Hide one teddy bear somewhere in the house and use the sticky notes to write some hints for finding the teddy bear. The trick is to write the clues on the sticky notes, but referring to the plush animals of the children and not to the children themselves. In that way the children will have new identities which they will be more comfortable with. Each clue should bring them closer to the teddy bear, until they finally find it. The plush animal that finds it first, will get an extra cookie.

Another very gripping game that kids enjoy a lot is ‘plush animals’ fairy tale’. This game is at the same time very interesting but also it triggers the kids’ imagination. The thing is that all plush animals that are attending the party should be turned into the characters of a fairy tale. It can be some famous fairy tale, or you can let the children invent their only fairy tale. In the end, this game always ends up with the new fairy tale. In this game, children really have the opportunity to express their creativity, and you will be surprised how creative children really are. You have to be present during this game and to be a mediator of the game, in order for the children not to argue about the roles in the fairy tale. Everybody wants to be a princess or a prince, but it is important to teach the children that other roles are good as well. And as every fairy tale, this one will also end with “They lived happily ever after.”

As you can see, party with plush animals can be really great. These are just few ideas that I came up with. All of you who decide to throw a party like this are welcomed to bring in more ideas and, hopefully to share with all of us later on. Let the party start.
