*A Tip From Grandma Mary

To make your table setting really exciting, you can put a few party favors by each place setting. A ring, a fun bracelet or even a tiara for each guest.

Elegant And Fun Decoration

Your party location will look beautiful when you decorate in pink, white and burgundy using streamers, balloons and ribbon. And using confetti and silver glitter at your table will give you a very nice accent.

Use balloons to create a pink and white ceiling. You can also use red ribbon tied to the balloons as streamers so your guests can get hold of the balloons and play with them. Have some balloons on the floor as well.

Use a colorful tea pot as a fun table centerpiece. Attach a small helium filled balloon bouquet to the tea pot.

And remember to use some balloons and streamers outside to decorate your mail box or doorway.

If you can, decorate a second room where your birthday girl and her guests can wait until you are ready to move them into your dining room area. In your second room you can keep them busy doing crafts or playing guessing games.

Birthday Tea Party Activities

Get things started as soon as the first guest arrives, this will keep everyone from just "standing around" while they wait for all your guests.

Fun Make Overs

Pick up a small mirror and comb set for each guest. You can also pick up an assortment of lipstick and nail polish.

Let the girls help each other with a make over.

Just for fun you can also pick up a few colorful costume boas, hair clips, costume jewelry and even high heel shoes.

*A Tip From Grandma Mary

You can always pick up a few dress up items at a local thrift store. This is a great way to save some money and give a little back to your community at the same time.

Fun Tea Party Games

Tea for You Game Set

You get 3 games in 1 with this fun Tea for You party game.

Pass The Ring

Have all your guests stand in a circle.

Now place a small ring on a long piece of string and tie the ends of the string together.

Now have your guests hold the string while your birthday girl puts her hand over the ring.

To start the game, have one player stand in the middle of the circle as all the other guests pretend to be sliding the ring along the string and secretly passing the ring to each other.

The player in the middle tries to guess who really has the ring.

When the player guesses who has the ring. That person switches places with the player in the middle.

Guess How Many

When your guest first arrive, you can have them guess how many tea bags are in a jar or how many M&M candies or something else that goes with your theme.

Drop The Tea Bag

Have your guests see who can drop the most tea bags into a jar.

Tea Party Hostess Sez

Instead of Simon Sez, let your birthday girl play the Tea Party Hostess and call the game. "The Tea Party Hostess sez."

Sing Songs

Your guests might enjoy singing I'm a little tea pot and doing all the poses that go with it.

Birthday Tea Party Food

Think elegant, think fun!

If your group is very young you may want to stick with cake and ice cream.

Be sure to have some elegant music playing in the background as you serve your food on trays.

*A Tip From Grandma Mary

You can easily add a very elegant touch to the serving of food and treats by asking an older male to put on a a tuxedo or a suit and tie and serve the food.

This can be a lot of fun especially if the male actually pretends to be the butler by asking the birthday girl what she would like and serving it to her and her guests.

Tea Birthday Party Invitation

Set the stage for your child's tea party by making your invitation elegant but fun. You'll have your invited guests excited if you tell them you'll be doing makeovers and playing dress up.

Do you or a friend know Calligraphy? You can write an elegant invitation on parchment paper.

Your invitation should be worded like this:

"(First and last name of the birthday girl) invites you to join her for a birthday tea party celebrating her (number of birthday) th. birthday."

"For your tea time with (birthday child's first name) please wear a party dress for high tea. You can also wear your dress up hat and gloves."

To make your invitation really special and exciting you might include a pair of white gloves with the invitation.

If your birthday tea party is for younger children, you might ask them to bring a favorite doll or stuffed animal with them.

And don't forget to give them all the important information too.

"Our special tea party will take place on (month and date) at (start time for your party), ending promptly at (end time)."

Giving an end time for your party will keep you from having party guests stuck at your house waiting for a parent to pick them up.

"Our party location will be (street address and other important location information)."

You can also mention that you will be doing make overs and playing dress up.
