There may or may not be time to do every activity on the schedule. Be flexible and omit activities as needed, it is always better to over-schedule. This plan includes two dress-up times, designed to allow the girls to wear two different outfits. For our parties, we had an assortment of dresses, boas, hats, jewelry, gloves, and bouquets, which were purchased from second-hand and party stores. If you don’t want to invest in a closet of dress-up clothes, simply purchase some accessories (tiaras/boas/fake jewelry) and substitute one dress-up session for a princess craft!
The music suggestions are to help set the mood of each activity. We suggest putting all the party music on a playlist or CD close within reach. Dress up as a fairy godmother to help create the princess mood!
