My friend just had the cutest birthday party for her 7 year-old DD

We did this for my dd a few years ago! Thank you Pinterest I will say that my dollar store had poorly constructed stuffed animals so I ordered mine online. They were $3/animal but it was worth the expense. And it did take up the 1.5 hours of the 2 hour party(half hour to eat) because the kids picked the animals one by one and we made a big deal about it, they made beaded collars and the beading took awhile, we had the vet/groomer stations up and they loved it (5year olds) and spent plenty of time there, we had relay races with the animals involved. Plenty to do.

My daughter is only 4, but I don't see this being of interest for more than 20 minutes. What did they do with the rest of the time?

4:00-4:30 Guests arrive, color pictures animals
4:30-5:00 Do the animal activity. Have kids decorate collar. Get checked out at the "vet"
5:00-5:30 Eat
5:30-6:00 Open gifts, kids play, have cake

6:00-7:00pm drink wine
