- Welcome to Sesame Street!: Set the scene with some Sesame Street magic! Decorate with bright colors, balloons featuring your child’s favorite characters, and fun streamers. Don’t forget a “Happy Birthday” banner with everyone’s favorite furry friends!
- Let’s Play on Sesame Street!: Fun and games are a must at any birthday party. Plan some age-appropriate activities that tie into the Sesame Street theme. Here are some ideas:
- Cookie Monster’s Counting Game: Hide colorful cookies (or any small toys) around the party area and have the kids search for them. This is a great way to practice counting!
- Elmo Says Freeze Dance: Play some upbeat music and have the kids dance like Elmo. When the music stops, yell “Elmo Says Freeze!” The first one to move is out!
- Big Bird’s Nest Building Challenge: Gather blankets, pillows, and chairs and let the little ones build their own cozy nests, just like Big Bird’s!
- Fueling Up on Sesame Street: No party is complete without delicious treats! Serve up some fun snacks and drinks with a Sesame Street twist. Here are some ideas:
- Elmo’s Veggie Platter: Cut vegetables into fun shapes with cookie cutters. Serve with a creamy dip for dipping!
- Cookie Monster’s Cookie Crumble: Bake some yummy cookies (or buy pre-made ones) and crumble them up for a sweet and messy treat.
- Big Bird’s Sunny Sips: Serve bright yellow lemonade or fruit punch in colorful cups.
