The theme for my oldest son's 4th birthday was
"Make-Your-Own-Ice-Cream-Sundae."
The colors were Brown, Cream & Pink...for Neapolitan.
Yes, I had pink at a boy's party.
It was at a park. Playground time and ice cream. Simple.
My favorite part, of course, was the favors!
Included in each Goodie bag...
1.this cute ice cream bowl and spoon from Oriental Trading
2. A ridiculously (if I must say) adorable
chocolate dipped sugar cone with sprinkles,
stuffed with twizzlers, smarties, dum dums and a fruit roll-up.
Wrapped in a cello bag and tied off with brown or pink ribbon.
A picture you ask??? uh, YEAH, I didn't take one!! Sore subject.

3. Old fashion paper parlor hats that the kids could color in themselves
(pictured above)
I found these on Ebay.
I originally planned for them to be an activity for the guests when they arrived,
but I've learned that when you have a party at a park,
the kiddos tend to take off for the playground.
Understandable.
So, I threw them in the goody bags.
Also included with the hats were a small pack of crayons,
and assorted stickers to decorate with.
The little foam ice cream cones on the bags I also ordered from OT.
They were really a craft, but I decided to make the bags "purty" with 'em!
I made the tags myself with my trusty scrappin' supplies. No biggie.
Girls' tag read...
"Here's a Treat for being so Sweet!"
Boys' tag read...
"Thanks for being so cool!"
