Picture Book Party

Use your child's favorite book as inspiration for their next birthday party. I ♥ the classic tales of The Very Hungry Caterpillar, Where the Wild Things Are and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Anything goes! Bonus: use the books for decoration!


A Where the Wild Things Are party ideas include making paper crowns, boat races and of course having a wild rumpus!

The Very Hungry Caterpillar party would have lots and lots of snacks, painting, storytime and butterfly wings! Assemble colorful cupcakes to look like a caterpillar using red and green frosting. 


Charlie and the Chocolate Factory would be fun to play games based on each character, like bubble blowing, a tv quiz, snacks and chocolate! A visit to "Wonka's candy shop" would be a scrumdidlyumptious way to make-your-own favor to take home.
