Alphabet Birthday Party favors

For Alligator’s birthday party, I made a cookie of each child with their initial on it to take home.

I used refrigerated dough.

Then once baked, I made a glaze of confectioner’s sugar and a little bit of milk. I dipped the cookie in the glaze and let dry. Then wrote their initial on the cookie with blue icing. I allowed it to harden and then wrapped it up.

I also gave each child a Elmo Alphabet workbook.

This is how I displayed them. I put them by the door, so that I wouldn’t forget to hand them out. I am notorious for doing that.

Alphabet themed birthday, centerpiece

Alligator’s birthday party has an alphabet theme. I decided we needed a centerpiece for the table.  So I used a clear vase, and dumped in 2 medium bags of M&Ms. Then I was going to put each letter of the alphabet on a skewer (with tape). As I started this, it started to get really crowded fast.

So instead I put the letters of his name instead.

This is an easy and cheap centerpiece. Yes, and  now you know his real name… maybe!

Alphabet Birthday Theme, pendant banner

 

Alligator is turning 3 and having a Alphabet themed birthday party.

He loves, and maybe even obsesses over, the alphabet.

So I made him a pendant banner with the letters of the alphabet on it.

I used cardstock and cut out my triangles. Then I used a pack of foam letters from the Dollar Tree. I glued one on each pendant. Then I strung each triangle together with ribbon from Michaels.

I love how it turned out! We are going to hang it in his room after the party!
