The first thing you will want to do is to put together a guest list and also to figure out a date, location and time. When you have done those things, it is time to do the invitations. Elmo invitations are available at stores online in all sorts of varieties like fill-in-the-blanks, personalized versions and First Birthday theme. If you want to make your own, you can go online for great downloads to print out and other homemade ideas.
Once your invitations are filled out, slip them in an envelope and sprinkle in some Elmo or Sesame Street theme confetti, just for the fun of it. Add some stickers on the envelope and mail out with plenty of time to spare.
For an Elmo party, bright and cheery primary colors are the rave. Bring you colors in with helium filled solid balloons and mix in some Elmo theme Mylars too. An Elmo theme pinata makes a fun and festive decoration and doubles as a great game later in the party. Removable wall art decals make awesome additions as well.
Add to the decor of your party with fun tables. You can use one for the cake, beverages and snacks or a separate one for each. Cover the tables with bright colored solid table covers or an Elmo theme one. You can mix and match if you have more than one table. Elmo centerpieces really add to the table. you can purchase one or make your own by tying on helium balloons to a stuffed Elmo doll. Set Elmo party ware on the table like plates, cups, napkins, blow outs and party hats and you have a really fun table.
Game time should be really fun and upbeat. Keep the games oriented to the age and maturity of your group. "Pin-the-Nose-on-Elmo" is a spin off the old "Pin-the-Tail-on-the-Donkey" game that will delight the little ones. Pinata is always a hit too. Online birthday party sites have great suggestions as well.
When the little ones get hungry, feed them in true Elmo style. Cut little sandwiches in Elmo shapes and set out little bowls of Dorothy goldfish crackers. Fruit and veggie trays are yummy and nutritious as well.
For beverages, serve iced down boxed drinks or even a punch. Serve punch in Elmo sippy cups or Elmo theme party cups.
Now for the party favorite...the cake. You can make a cake by using a n Elmo shaped cake pan and decorate according to the directions that come with the pan or you can create your own by using instructions available from online party sites. Really cute cupcake ideas are available as well.
Send the kids home with a memory of how much fun they had at the party with fun treats. Purchase Elmo theme bags or boxes and fill them with Elmo favors, small sets of play dough, little boxes of crayons and pocket sized books. Bubbles, snacks and candies make terrific treats too.
There you have it, all the innovative ideas you need to couple with your own for one really fun Elmo party. Hoo-ray for Elmo!
