When it comes to Princesses, as with many things in life, too easily we allow our thoughts to be distracted and rely only on first impressions: the "things" a Princess owns and how she looks. This activity differs from the standard Princess party games since we will take the time to stop and think about what a Princess stands for. This is how we will discover not only the secrets of being a true Princess but that we all share many of those same qualities! From the
Princess party nj ideas box comes this craft activity which does require a little setting up on your part.
Although all princesses, in general, are very popular, Cinderella and Rapunzel, in particular, are very, very famous among preteen girls. You can choose any of these two or even a generic fairy for your daughter's birthday party theme. Whichever fairy you choose, all of them have certain things common among them. As such, there are some bash favors which are suited to both themes. We will take a look at some of them.
What you will need is a craft area that has the following supplies: a stack of magazines, junk mail, brochures, newspapers and so on. Some sheets of poster cardboard - you may want one poster for every four to eight fairies who are doing this activity, just one for the birthday girl or one poster each.
Magic wands are the next most popular princes's bash favors when it comes to princesses. They are the magic tool by which princesses can transform anything they want. They are a sign of power for the kids. As such these wands are an essential addition to princes's goodie bags that you will gift them with at the end of the bash.
A Fairy Crown pinata is another fun fairy bash game. Fill the Crown with some pinata fillers or candies and let each guest have a turn pulling strings. One of the strings will cause the pinata to burst open and spill out the royal treasures hidden inside.
The answers you are looking for are along these lines: kindness, inner beauty, strength, faith, hope and charity, wisdom, grace, and compassion. I am sure your group will come up with even more! This is when we depart from the usual Fairy bash games, it is where the magic happens, so you may want to spend a few minutes allowing (with some prompting if required) the answers to come out. The clever and thoughtful bash hostesses may wish to write these answers on a whiteboard or a chalkboard for reference in the next phase.
So what happens next? This is when you divide the bash into groups according to the number of posters you have. With the list of Fairy qualities in easy view, ask your bash Fairies to find and cut out from the stack of magazines pictures that show one or more of these qualities. Encourage them to label areas of the poster for each quality, then stick the pictures in and let their creative urges out to decorate the poster.
The princess bash favors mentioned above are the most common and popular ones that people gift to small girls. Nevertheless, they are not the only ones available. There are too many of them to describe them all here. These are just to get you started. Once you have got the idea about what kinds of favors are themed on princesses, you will find many more with your own ideas.
