Our family’s love of the beach was a big inspiration for our daughter’s mermaid themed first birthday. I began gathering items and ideas soon after she was born (discovering Pinterest was a big help).
The menu had an “under the sea” theme including sushi rolls (ham sandwiches), stuffed shells (sausage pastry shells), octopus dip (hummus with octopus bell pepper), goldfish, and low country shrimp boil for the adults.
Activities included “Atlantis” – a pack n play and play mat with sea creature baby toys and “Mermaid Bubble School” – bubble solution in the party colors with different bubble blowing tools
Party favors were small sand pails, bubbles and pipe cleaners to make your own bubble wand

Great colors and mermaid theme…I will keep it in mind for next birthday. However, I also like the blue wall color and the beige color. Do you know the brand and name of those colors, many the white trim, too,? Thank you. We have to repaint soon. We have been looking around for colors for years!@#
