No balloons for us, but I did bring in cupcakes, water bottles, fruit and a goody bag. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-birthday-party-inspiration-needed#post-2206898 Fri, 12 Jun 2015 13:11:24 +0000 regberadaisy 2206898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@plantains: :shocked: omgosh that's insane!

My LO was the only one that wouldn't wear it. Stinker! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-birthday-party-inspiration-needed#post-2206883 Fri, 12 Jun 2015 13:02:16 +0000 plantains 2206883@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: we are going in after the daycare wide nap which ends at 3 so we will probably start at 3.30. Apparently some parents hire clowns, face painting etc but I think that is kind if wasted on them so little. Maybe when she turns 4:)</p> <p>@T.H.O.U.: they said I could bring balloons but I will double check to make sure, good point!</p> <p>@Smurfette: this is helpful. I have Minnie Mouse ear party hats, can't decide whether to get Mickey ears for the boys or just regular hats.</p> <p>@regberadaisy: love this idea! Super clever. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-birthday-party-inspiration-needed#post-2206875 Fri, 12 Jun 2015 12:57:07 +0000 regberadaisy 2206875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did George at home so I made banan cupcakes and got George rings and used them as a topper for the kids. </p> <p>I'm actually not sure if we're allowed to do all that extra stuff! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-birthday-party-inspiration-needed#post-2206853 Fri, 12 Jun 2015 12:48:02 +0000 Smurfette 2206853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just took in mini cupakes, applesauce packets, party hats, and gift bags. I just went during snack time. Then I took her home early. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-birthday-party-inspiration-needed#post-2206831 Fri, 12 Jun 2015 12:38:16 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2206831@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would love to take in some coloring sheets or a little mini (haha pun there) activity. </p> <p>Check with the daycare, ours does not allow latex balloons since they can be a choking hazard. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-birthday-party-inspiration-needed#post-2206821 Fri, 12 Jun 2015 12:32:51 +0000 Mamaof2 2206821@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We aren't allowed to do that but I would love to! What else will they allow? Are you doing this during lunch or how much time are they giving you? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-birthday-party-inspiration-needed#post-2206805 Fri, 12 Jun 2015 12:24:28 +0000 plantains 2206805@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So my DD turns 3 next Sunday. I feel like I blinked and it has come round because I have been so busy at work I haven't really had time to plan anything. I have decided to have a Minnie Mouse party at daycare and have ordered the cake and bought the balloons. </p> <p>Has anyone else had daycare parties for your kid? Besides cake, balloons and gift bags what else did you take in? Any ideas or inspiration would really be appreciated! </p>
