Tips for a Teddy Bear Party

A Teddy Bear Party - Some Simple Tips

A great teddy bear party is not a difficult thing to pull of with a little creativity and some things that you can find round your house! Here are some quick ideas for making the party "beary" fun!

Invitation ideas

Buy some inexpensive rubber stamps with bear images and let your little one make
homemade invitations. Or cut a piece of cardstock into the shape of a bear and
write your invitation on that. Free clipart can be found for this purpose in many
places on the Internet. Make sure you include the request for all the guests to bring
their own bear to the party too!

Decoration ideas

When kids think of bears they usually think of honey and bees, so a big hit for
decorations is LOTS of yellow and black balloons and streamers. If possible have
various teddy bears all around the room as well to tie in the theme.

Menu ideas

When you're hosting a bear event even your menu should be centered on teddy.
Here is a cute way to turn Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwiches into a beary fun treat!
Spread your peanut butter and jelly onto eight whole-wheat hamburger buns. Now
the fun begins. Cut four of the eight buns in half. On a large tray or covered cookie
sheet, arrange the buns into a shape of a teddy bear. For the tummy, put one whole
bun and surround that with 4 half buns. Another whole bun becomes the head/
face, with two half buns on the topsides of the head for the ears. Two whole buns
become the legs and the final two half buns turn out off of the body to make arms.
Garnish the face/head bun with raisin eyes and a strawberry slice mouth and you've
got a bear! Use a separate tray for additional sandwiches and watch for all the
smiles! Mix some honey and yogurt together for a great dip for cut fruit and your
menu is complete!

Bear Party - Activities and craft ideas

Crafts with a bear theme abound but here are some quick ideas for your bear
birthday party. Make a paper bear chain (paper dolls) that the kids can color and
decorate. Use paper plates to make paper bear masks. Bead a bear collar
(necklace). Take a picture with all the kids and their own bears and decorate a
simple scrapbook page to honor the occasion. Decorate teddy bear cookies with
colored icing and various decorations.

Bear Party - Game ideas

Pin the honey pot on the teddy bear - if you have an artist in the family, draw a
large teddy bear on poster board and cut out honey pots. Blindfold each child
individually and see if they can put the honey pot into the teddy bear's hand.

Hot Teddy Bear - like hot potato only pass the teddy bear to the music. When the
music stops, the person with the teddy bear is out.

Toss the honey pot - draw a large bear head with an open mouth on poster board
and lay it on the floor. Using yellow beanbags as the "honey" each child throws the
bag to see if it will land in the bear's mouth.

Take home gift ideas

Purchase yellow lunch bags (available at party stores) and decorate with bee
stickers. Fill with gummy bears, teddy grahams, miniature stuffed teddy bears and
fun bear jewelry. Or if you want to go all out, hire a stuffed animal party planner to
come and have each child make their own stuffed animal as part of the party.
