This month my little monster, who I love with all my heart, Nate, celebrated his fourth birthday. We had a pool party for him and invited the cousins over for a fun Little Monster Birthday Party at our community pool. Since his big sister, Isabella, had a pool party, he wanted one too.
We planned the pool party for 12 pm – 3 pm, but everyone ended up staying longer. It was a record breaking hot day in Western Washington and the pool was the perfect place to be. I found great Little Monster party supplies at my favorite party planning website: Oriental Trading. My best helper, Isabella, decorated the tables and put together all the favor bags. She is the best!
I had every intention of making cupcakes but then I visited my local bakery and found 24 colorful cupcakes that I knew would be perfect to serve with this primary colored birthday party theme. After Halloween last year I picked up some monster party supplies including a Wilton monster cupcake decorating kit. I added the kit to the tops of the store bought cupcakes and it was perfect!
Also on the lunch menu:
- Uncrustables
- Bagged Chips
- Watermelon
- Grapes
- Cookies
- Juice Boxes
Kids could grab and eat food at any time during the party. We like to keep our parties laid back.
It was a great 4th birthday party. Nate had a fun time with his cousins. A pool party in July is perfect. Don’t forget to check out Oriental Trading for all your birthday party needs. They literally have everything you can imagine!
