Alice in Wonderland 8th Birthday Party

I had an Alice in Wonderland party for 20 little girls to celebrate my twin girls’ 8th birthday. When the girls arrived they each made an Alice in Wonderland t-shirt.  They chose what color shirt they wanted and then they chose a fabric key, teapot, flamingo or cupcake to go on the front of their shirt.  After helping to iron it on, they handed it over to my friend Kate who then appliqued all 20 shirts during the rest of the party. The girls then made layered fabric hair clips with button or gem centers.Instead of gifts, each girl was asked to bring a wrapped stuffed rabbit.  It could be any size, style or color.  As each girl arrived I put a numbered sticker on their package.  After finishing their hair clips, the girls went on a key hunt.  There were large blue sparkly keys hidden all over and each one was numbered.  After they found a key, they matched it to the same number on one of the packages.  Then the girls all opened their packages and got to take home the rabbit that was inside. Next the girls had a tea party with cupcakes, pink lemonade and a sundae bar.Finally, the girls had a Wonderland dance party led by a great DJ who had them doing the “YMCA,” “Cha Cha Slide” and “Chicken Dance.” You can see more photos at:  http://www.andbabiesmakefour.com/2012/03/eight.html
