Alice In Wonderland party ideas,please

bbford

Hi,
my daughter would like a Mad Hatter party for her 8th birthday party.
Looking to have 10 friends to the house.

Need ideas for props and buying party supplies and a cake idea.

All help appreciated!

What a fun idea. I'll be following this thread with interest

I'd start by putting a sign on the door saying " we are all mad here"

If you sit down at the table eating and drinking have tea cups on saucers instead of glasses and serve pop out of teapots


Make your own birthday cake. Sponge and filling and cover the outside with green marzipan and shape it like the "mad hatter hat"

Watch the film with a notebook and write down some quotes and then turn these into banners

Use alot of bright colours.

Making your own invites sounds like fun to.

Is she wanting to have it like the old film or the new one?

This is the mad hatters birthday party scene on you tube.

Maybe it can give you some ideas.

Maybe you could get a giant plastic tea pot as the centrepiece for the table and put a little mouse teddy inside it poking out.

You could make some giant biscuits and make them look like tea saucers (noticed the mad hatter eats his saucer)

Oh the pocket watch too.

How about big playing cards made out of cardboard, definately lots of eat me and drink me labels, different sizes of food (ie mini cakes etc).

It might be worth approaching your local cinema to see if they have any spare posters or promotion materials from the Alice film that comes out this week?

I am out of inspiration at the moment but will see what else I can come up with later!!
