These are just a few ideas to get you started – but when the parties get started, kids’ imaginations will take over.

Children love to dress up. Dressing up and playing pretend allows kids to imitate adults, and to explore what it would be like to be astronauts, teachers, or even lions and other animals. Dress up parties let kids make their own fun, and, best of all, they don’t require expensive or elaborate props. You could choose to have kids come already dressed up or provide costumes at the party.

Uncle Goose alphabet blocks are beautiful, durable and timeless. They are made in Grand Rapids, Michigan from sustainable Michigan basswood. These blocks have painted raised letters, numbers and pictures of animals surrounded by an embossed pattern. They are painted using non-toxic inks. They also sell foreign letter blocks. These would make a great gift for a young child.
