DIY kiddie activity on kid's party
« on: April 25, 2013, 05:20:54 pm »
I was really contemplating on pushing this but still cant decide which activity na manageable naman and hindi messy. I was thinking of buying beads sa divisoria by packs and some beadworks materials.
thsi is for girls only, then what fo boys? naisip ko is design your own notebook. I will buy plain notebooks and put mga different stickers/ cut shapes/ scrapbook materials in a bowl and bahala na sila to choose and decorate their notebook. Maybe i will have my emcee (lhen) to announce and assist them while kids are waiting? para mas di mainip ang mga bata..

anymore suggestions? pls share it here! baka we can all learn from each other.

For my son's party which is cowboy themed, i plan to either have a jazz-up-your -cowboy-hat or make-your-own-stick-horse for their pre-event activity. Depende nalang what materials i can get.

1.  Painting activity - buy canvas and acrylic plus brushes at National Bookstore and have the kids paint whatever they want.  Or you can have guide pictures to show for inspiration.  For my kids' dinosaur-themed birthday party last year, they painted different kinds of dinosaurs.

2.  Design your own shirt

I'm also planning my nephew's and niece's upcoming birthday party :)
I found a few cute ideas on pinterest:
- cupcake decorating - super fun and yummy :)
- "beauty salon" for girls - just set up a faux salon and line up some props like kid-safe nailpolish, hair accessories, and organic/ non comedogenic makeup.
- waterballoon wall - just like the one in princess diaries :) - messy but fun
- ^and same as sis marose17's idea - DIY t-shirt design - you can use fabric markers or iron on designs so it's not too messy.
you can also try pastel fabric sticks. you use it just like your regular oil pastels but when ou iron itm it becomes permanent :)  i think i bought mine from national bookstore.

Buy a bunch of dress up clothes and accessories and let the kids have a ball with imaginary play.

^^sis mistiq, it all depends on what you like; just let your creativity flow :) 

you can just set up a a tent or drape curtains, add some kiddie sized furniture and maybe small shelves and decorate it with stuff, much like a real salon.  and you can have someone make styro signage or props.
You can buy kiddie vanities sa mall sis. yung parang princess type with the swilry bordered mirror.  or just DIY it with small tables and  mirrors .  mas sulit sis if you can use or incorporate the furniture in your child's room afterwards.

for older kids, i guess ok lang yung trusted brands like OPI. just make sure that they don't contain harmful ingredients like toulene, formaldehyde, dbp, etc... i think there are around 4-5 toxic ingredients to watch out for.  most of the time they indicate this on the bottles :)

for younger kids, you can try Piggy Paint, it's a brand of polish specifically for kids. I'm not sure if available  locally but you can try ordering it online.

for makeup, try organic brands or once with milder formulation that's made for sensitive skin.  test mo muna on your skin to make sure.  we don't want the kids to get allergies or rashes :)

you can also do cute simple hairstyles. there are a lot of tutorials for this online.

actually sis, I got this whole idea on a kiddie party i saw on pinterest.  It was an adorably cute "cinderella party"  but not like the usual frufru-everthing-pink princess party (which is so cliche). 
They started off with the pre-makeover cinderella -complete with apron, broom, feather duster, etc...  the adults dressed up as the other characters : evil stepmom,sisters, fairy god mother, etc...

they basically followed the script - i.e.  the kids had to do "chores" - they had a cute sewing station- and  "clean up" - the dirty dishes were made of chocolates and desserts. And then the fairy god mothers came and gave them make-overs. and they all were given pretty dresses to wear to the ball. the pics looked so cute! :)

use usual kiddie table nalang and will decorate and put mirrors. i already also have ask some friends to man
the salon ahaha sila na bahala on how to make over the kids.. i will buy nalang mga cute clips
headbands, colognes, lip gloss (HM) me tinted kasi i find it safe that lipstick, blush on (HM din),
and will look pa for eyeshadow pero dadamihan ko yun sa nails.. baka will check sa MOA i saw
a booth there selling girly items will check if ok yun brands.

^that sounds fun sis :)  hope the kids have a blast sa party.  no need na ang eyeshadows, baka ayaw din ng ibang mommies eh;nyou have a lot of accessories to entertain the kids naman.  you can also do hair braiding :)
for the boys, the usual carnival games will do.  pwede din "tattoo" booth using the rub on tattoos you can buy sa malls.  wag lang henna kasi the ink used is not safe for kids, ang daming horror stories about henna allergies.
oldies like pin the tail, balloon popping, musical chairs, etc. are also nice :)

Hit na hit yung DIY na racing kart making for my twins' party.  Pati mga adults sobrang nag enjoy.

Para siyang gingerbread house making pero car ang ginawa ko para mag match sa theme.

hi sis. i wanted to do option 1 on my daughter's 9th bday. how much ang canvas and paint sa national. baka kase meron pa mas mura. knowing national medyo pricey. marami kasing kids na dadating. baka you can share pics din how did you set-up the canvas. thank you.

i love the make up idea sana kaso worry ko my daughter is allergic with make up. kahet for kids pa yan. :( maganda pa man din sana ito to keep them busy. i won't be throwing games na kase. activies and eat out nalang. hehe.

Sa national bookstore may styro na bilog. Iba iba yung sizes kaya ok gawing snowman. Pwede mo icover ng cotton. :) Or si Olaf ba yung gagayahin mo? Eto sis oh, frozen party ideas. ;)

I'm an event organizer on the side. hehe

For a cheap DIY project, you can try lootbag decorating. If you want something better, try a cupcake or cookie decorating. The emcee can announce that there's a DIY table for the kids, but let someone other than the emcee supervise the activity. Maybe you have a younger cousin who will be keen to do it.
