Throwing an Under the Sea Adventure
1. When you mail your tropicla fish invites make sure to use the sea life foam confetti in your invitations and use tropical fish stickers to decorate your envelopes!
2. The day of the party make sure to decorate with fun items like tropical fish cutout, hang our fish dangles from your doorways or fixtures, use a ocean friends flag banner to span a room or deck, decorate tables with ocean tablecovers, fish centerpieces or our blowfish sipper cups! Decoate with our deep sea latex balloons, Scuba diver balloon, Seahorse or Ocean Friends balloons.
3. Weather permitting have kids come in their swimsuits and have pools around for the kids to play in. If you are daring enough fill one with bubbles and throw in all sorts of blowers. You can be real impressive if you grab a hula hoop and have the kids stand in the center of the hula hoop in the pool and pull up a gigantic bubble with kids inside!
4. Create a fish template for your cake. Cut out your template and lay on top of a 9X13 cake and cut out around the edges. Then frost your cake. When cutting out a cake frost and let frosting set and then frost again. Our create a sheet cake painted blue and decorate with our tropical fish candle set. Or create adorable cupcakes with our Seashore Cupcake Picks or Sea Life Cupcake Picks. Create a deep sea cupcake scene with our sea life cupcake kit. Or top your cupcakes with our shark gummies. Frost your cupcakes and dip them in blue (for the sea) or yellow (for the sand) sugar for the perfect background to your cupcake picks.
5. Create adorable clown fish cookies or dolphin cookies with our cookie cutters. Have the kids decorate the cookies for a fun party activity let them dry and package them in our ocean friends cello bags to take home. A fun activity and very inexpensive take home treat!
6. Get the kids ready to play some games use our self inking ocean life stamps to give each kid a stamp on their hand or cheek like a tattoo or use the tropical fish tattoos.
7. One game to play is to cut out fish shapes and label with children’s names. Have the kids stand over a bucket or container or fish net and try to drop the fish in without bending over. Or add a magnet to the fish and put them in a bucket and have the kids fish. You could use our fish squirts or our plush clown fish and the kids could keep their catch as a treat!
8. Create an octopus on poster board and play pin the tentacle on the octopus. Cut of tentacles and label with each child’s name and a piece of tape. Blindfold the children and have them pin the tentacle to the octopus or use our Blowfish pin game
