My little doll was in love with the song “Old Mc Donald had a farm”. We took her often to a nearby petting animal farm and the red barn always made her giggle. Boom ! There came the idea for her second birthday theme. It was a very small backyard party and we wanted to keep things simple yet fun.

Most of the decorations were DIY projects or things i bought from amazon, My favorites were Red barn backdrop and the “old Mc Donald” photo frame prop. I made a bunch of party sign using simple free “barnyard” clip art and  never-old power point. The rocking pony made a great prop for my cow girl’s photos and kept the kids busy. Paisley bandanas added to the farm charm.

For little visitors, i arranged an activity where they could paint their own barns red. For favors we handed them their freshly painted barns and “barn favor box”. Favors had bunch of farm animal stuff – bath squirt’s, activity book, stickers and animal face pops.

Hope this inspires other mammas out there. I have a lot of free printable from the party, which i am happy to share.
