So, who had an Oscar Party over the weekend? I always find it a marvelous time for a party, especially for kids. Perhaps you didn’t think of it this time, and/or perhaps you will remember for next year…but here are some fun suggestions for your own Academy Award Evening with your little stars!!
Roll out a red carpet!
Have your kids dress up…this is a time for little girls to don their prettiest, fanciest dresses…or to play dress up…with Mom’s high heels and lipstick. It will be a lot of fun either way you go!
Play some Oscar Games…make up your own “kid friendly” categories with movies that all of your kids saw during the past year. Give out prizes to everyone, and have your own “presenters” for the prizes or the awards. You can do your personalized “presentations” during commercial breaks.
Serve party food, and fizzy cocktails. Fancy sandwiches, dainty appetizers, petit fours, little chocolates, ice creams with fancy toppings, fizzy lemonades or other types of juices jazzed up..plop candies into ice cubes to make those fancy. Make sure to “thank” your guests for coming with a grand toast!
Everyone should win an “Oscar” tonight…give out a parting gift as the guests depart for the evening. A fancy little goody bag with movie memorabilia would be a fun twist, given what the real presenters receive as gratis to give out awards, it seems even appropriate. Or pick a favorite movie, such as Chicken Little, and give out “stuff” along that movie theme!
It won’t take too much time or effort to make your party guests feel like stars!! It may be that you also invite the parents to this one…it is a theme for everyone…just be sure to have some fun prepared for the kids!
Hope you enjoyed the Oscars!! I had a blast imagining my next Oscar party. Star daydreams I suppose…
