You can imagine that as the idea was to have the birthday at a Park, we already had the food and the decorations (that would have been very simple: Table cloth, napkins, tableware) ready. And as they are toddlers and they love playing at the parks we didn't have to worry about extra activities. But with the change of plans, we had to move indoors so we had to make a last minute trip to Target and the Party Store, where we found different fun activities we thought the kids would have liked. I could tell you all the things we got, but at the end the simple things were the ones that they were interested in:
- Balloons (we bought an Helium tank)
- Arts & Crafts (Drawings, Crayons, Foam crafts for the kids to create art)
- Music
As you can see it didn't take much, those activities and lots of space for them to be running all over the place where enough to have 16 toddlers happy until the cake time arrived!
So if you are planning a party and have to make a last minute change to go indoors, don't stress out, you don't need to worry about getting several things to entertain them, it is really amazing how they have a good time with the simple stuff!
In terms of food, we had both mini cupcakes and a cake... if you are wondering which one would be better to have, 90% of the kids preferred to have a mini-cupcake (I made some with bright colored frosting (blue, yellow and red) and the blue ones were the winners!
