[quote=Anonymous]Pick a theme and then do some kind of easy craft and maybe photo booth for that theme. Examples we've done:

Moana--they made rafts our of popsicle sticks and I bought them all grass skirts and we had a hula lesson

Pirate--I made a pirate ship out of a big cardboard box and they had hats and spyglasses and eye patches and a cheap set of photo booth accessories. I filled a big rubbermaid container with sand and big fake coins and gems in it for a measure hunt (better if you have a balcony).  I found little wooden treasure chests at Michael's for $1 each so they decorated them to hold what they found during their treasure hunt. I found kits to build foam boats for their goodie bags, but you could do that as a craft instead.

Superhero--They put together foam mask kits and decorated little wooden people from Michael's as superhero.

Princess--buy foam or paper tiaras and let them decorate them with markers, foam stickers, or stick-on gems. They could also make fairy princess wands or jewelry. (We've never done a princess party but we've been to plenty and the kids liked them.)

If you have thoughts about a theme she might like, I'm sure people would have ideas.[/quote]
