This is the main table with all the food. For the backdrop, I painted birch trees on a large piece of paper then cut them and used ticky tack to attach them to the wall. I added leaves to be "Gale" and hung a "Believe" balloon from Party City. For the table itself, I bought a Dollar Tree table cloth and traced outlines of Olaf, Anna, Elsa, Kristoff, and Sven walking through the Enchanted Forest.
The food included snowball (white popcorn), string cheese, Kristoff's Ice (blue jello), Sven's treats (carrots), cupcakes with leaves, and the Frozen 2 cake our girl wanted. I knew I wanted the kids to be able to decorate cookies but snowflakes aren't really part of Frozen 2. Then it dawned on me that we could decorate cookies like the elements! I used a holly leaf cutter and then a knife to cut the holly leaves into diamonds. This helped me make sure they were all the same size. The cookies were a big hit. The water was "melted snow". I really lucked out when I went shopping for the water as the bottles were frozen 2 themed already!
I found this "paint your own rings" set at dollar tree. The kids painted their rings as they came in and they dried while we were having the party.
The birthday girl and her sister were dressed up like Elsa and Anna. The "cloak" from the Elsa set can be removed and then the outfit turns into what she's wearing when she meets Water Nokk. She LOVED that she could transform.
My children love the new characters so I wanted to incorporate Gale into the mix. I had a vision for making this mobile and it turned out exactly as I planned! The leaves are all hung at different lengths using fishing line. It can twirl and the leaves all flutter. It was just magical.
Finally, we played Pin the Tail on Water Nokk. I printed Water Nokk on some printer paper then traced him onto a poster board. We used ticky tack to attach the tails and Elsa's belt to be the blindfold. The kids thoroughly enjoyed this!
Happy 5th birthday, baby girl!!!
