How to Host a Backyard Fairy Princess Gathering

It's hard to incorporate a fun party for little girls and for adults.  Many families have small children that want to have a princess party, but the parents want to invite neighbors and older children who may have grown out of the princess phenomenon and want to do more adult activities.  How do you make it easy on yourself, but fun for all of your guests, young and old alike?

A fairy princess gathering in the backyard would be perfect.  You may invite the adults to wear fairy wings to the party and hold a contest for who has the prettiest, most unique, smallest, biggest, funniest wings, etc.  Adults love a challenge, so this would be a great way to get the competition going while still making it fun for the younger guests.

The children would be invited to wear a fairy princess or Disney princess costumes (or pirates & princes for boys).  There could be a contest for the costume for kids as well.  You may be surprised by how fancy parents will get when they know a competition is involved.

Decorate your yard with everything fairy.  Of course, balloons and streamers in your little girls favorite color, pink and white, are essential.  You could have fairy costumes hanging from branches on trees in your yard in which children attending the party could "win" by playing games and participating in princess activities.

The mother may want to dress up as a beautiful fairy and be in charge of hosting the games and activities.  This would make the day extra special and get the adults involved.  Each adult may be asked to bring a fairy princess game for the children to play and that would make it really easy for the parents.

You could even rent a popcorn machine or cotton candy machine to do something interesting and unique.

To end the party, you would serve cake and ice cream.  You could make or buy a special fairy princess cake, like Tinkerbell.  Or you could make cupcakes with fairy hair clips in the middle for the little girls to take home with them.

Make sure to send the adults and children home with something special as a favor.  Some ideas for favors may include:  fairy wings, fairy tutu, ribbon ties, fairy hair clips, a hand mirror (since fairies are so beautiful and like to admire themselves), snacks that fairies may like to eat, a fairy princess costume, or anything else you can think of that has to do with Tinkerbell or other fairies.

A great gift to give your child at a party like this would be a stunning fairy princess costume or a Tinkerbell DVD so she can learn all about what fairies do before she attends the party.
