How to have frosty fun in a birthday party for kids
Get snowed in and throw a snowman party for your little guy! You really can have a
party with any theme you like, even one with snowmen, and here's how to let it snow,
let it snow let it snow:
- Print snowmen: Get the party started with free snowman printables from Living
Locurto. Use these party embellishments for labeling bottles of snowman drinks.
They include super cute sayings, like "Nice to Snow you." You'll find a pretty blue
and red theme of bottle wrappers, gift tags to use for favors, cupcake wraps
and more.
- Make a melted Snowman: A simple and funny decor idea is to set out a large
glass mason jar filled with water. Float a carrot nose, and a couple of olives and
three large red buttons in the jar and seal. If you can find a small plastic top hat
float it too. You may find one in the New Year's section of your party ,local
supply. The finishing touch is a piece of red felt or fabric around the neck of the
jar. Voila! You now have a melted snowman to display. See more snowman
decore ideas below.

white Jordan almonds and white candies for a candy buffet and more when you
