Polar Bear Party!
We had a polar bear party to celebrate Natalie’s 2nd birthday. Natalie very emphatically told us that she wanted “no cake! just ice cream!” at her party, so we served ice cream and cookies. And we decided to let 6 two-year-olds paint cookies with frosting. There were no tears! And no messes! The kids actually painted and put sprinkles on cookies for about 45 minutes! We thought we might be asking for trouble giving a bunch of toddlers a paint brush and a palate full of frosting, but it went great. Natalie and her friends had a great time, which was the best part of the party.
Here is the big two-year-old gearing up for the party in her made-by-mom birthday shirt:
