Yesterday we celebrated Nora’s 2nd Birthday with an Abby Cadabby party. Nora’s mom experimented with fondant and made an adorable cake! I saw the idea for these party favor bags on Facebook – there was quite a bit of cutting and gluing but Nora loved them.
We went through our photos and came up with some favorites. They are glued onto a large 2 cut out of posterboard.
There was a wide range in age among the child – guests at this party, but the games were mostly geared for the birthday girl. The older cousins were very gracious and participated willingly to make this a fun day for our special 2 year old!
We made the paddles from birthday plates with paint stir sticks taped onto the back with duct tape. They worked great!
We taped the numbered pictures of Abby Cadabby all over the yard – making some a little more challenging to find for the older kids. I had not anticipated a joyful Nora running through the yard “collecting” the pictures that were taped low enough to reach!
I think Nora’s favorite part of the party was the parade! She loved marching around the yard, and kept going with various instruments long after the parade quit following her!
It was a great birthday!
I hope you have so much fun and love being 2 precious Nora!
