Today was the end of the school year party for little La La and I wanted to do something extra special for my favorite four-year olds. I knew what the theme would be… a Have a Ball this Summer Party!
They love playing with all types of balls, so when I saw the printable at Dixie Delights, I knew it would be perfect! I tied it to simple plastic beach balls.
The table was set with loads of bright colors and I incorporated a fun Summer-stripe with the tablerunner.
Can you guess what it is made out of?
Yep… that is a plastic tablecloth! When strolling through Wal-Mart the other morning, I found these adorable striped birthday tablecloths and napkins and they were the exact colors that are on beach balls! I got a blue one to represent water and sewed the two together!
A pretty nice tablerunner for $2 and it is preschooler-proof! You can see the tutorial on how to make the tablerunner in our ruffled plastic tablerunner post!
The kids loved the blue metallic tinsel. That was not so much preschooler-proof!
For the sweet treat we had cupcakes with beach ball toppers! All I did here was print a few beach balls off and sandwich a toothpick between two of the balls and glued. Super easy!
A sweet friend of mine had monogrammed some of these colorful water bottles { also from $1 at Wal-Mart } for her little ones at Easter. I thought they were perfect for pint sized hands and just super adorable!
The kids love our Beach Ball Themed Summer Party!
Do you guys have any fun Summer bashes planned? Here are more fabulous party ideas!
