The holidays are the time for great parties. Have you thought about hosting parties for the children in your neighborhood or your children's friends? There are many great party themes for the holidays for every age. One that is great for all ages is a Santa's bake shop party. Wedding and Party Network has some great party tips for this party. Your kitchen will be full of delicious treats.
This party is very simple and easy to get prepared for. Figure out what type of desserts you want to create, baking supplies & ingredients, and a few simple party decorations are all you need.
Party Invitations – When it's time to send out the party invitations, include the very important details. However, include what you will be doing and tell them to bring their favorite aprons to make some tasty treats in the kitchen.
For the Decorations – Keep the decorations pretty simple. You'll be spending most of your time in the kitchen baking so just make sure you have your own Christmas decor out to get everyone in the holiday spirit. Don't forget the holiday music in the background! One thing you may consider investing in is cute holiday platters, dessert boxes, kitchen utensils, bowls, and creating cute signs to label the ingredients. Since you will be making desserts these are the items that will be seen.
Holiday Menu – This is where you really need to plan. Definitely have a menu set before you do anything. You'll be able to create a grocery list and go shopping with ease. You can create Santa cupcakes, snowmen cookies, chocolate strawberries that look like Christmas lights, Christmas tree mini cakes, cinnamon roll holiday wreath, have an area set up to decorate cookies and even a station to create a gingerbread house. There are many holiday desserts that you can create that everyone will enjoy!
Fun Little Touches – Set out all the ingredients out in those holiday bowls and platters and label each one. Set out the aprons and all the supplies you will need to make things easier for everyone and you. If you have little ones, teach them the importance of cleaning up and have a clean up party at the end.
Once everything is cool, have a packaging station for your guests. You can supply the gift boxes, bags, ribbon, and packaging supplies for everyone so they can easily wrap up their desserts to take them home or give them as gifts.
When planning your holiday parties, consider having one for all ages. A mother daughter party is a great way to spend quality time with one another, as well as friends. A Santa's bakeshop party is a great way to do just that.
