March 8

Exciting adventures and fun in the company of cartoon characters - kids will surely enjoy this holiday. Birthday in style Minnie Mouse It will be a wonderful surprise for a girl of any age if the birthday girl loves cartoons about Mickey and his friends.

Decor

Start by choosing a color scheme. Traditionally it is red, black and yellow, But when decorating a party for girls, red is often replaced with pink - bright caramel, pastel or juicy glamorous. The atmosphere will be stylish and gentle if you use gray instead of black.

Do you want cartoon colors and rainbow variegation? Minimum black, emphasis on yellow, blue and red. White polka dots on any bright and black background are considered almost business card Topics. We offer design ideas for a Minnie Mouse themed party:

  • drapery perfectly conveys the color mood– replace the curtains, choose tablecloths for tables with refreshments. Cover part of the walls with strips of fabric (flat as a background, in a beautiful fold as independent decor). Cushions and big bows on the chairs, colorful rugs here and there;
  • balloons are an easy way to enhance the festive atmosphere. Themed foil, polka dot, regular suitable shades, in the form of numbers (age), with drawings of characters. An arch at the entrance, “bouquets” with long ribbons above the ceiling, tied to the backs of chairs – dozens of options!

  • Minnie Mouse themed paper decorations are easy to make with your own hands or order online if you have little time to prepare for the party. To decorate the ceiling, garlands with circles, serpentine, Minnie and other characters on colored triangles.

Circular fans made of crepe paper look great on the walls. In the middle of such a “flower” you can glue stylized letters and pictures.

  • if this is the first birthday, use baby attributes for decoration - rattles, pacifiers, diapers, onesies, etc. You don’t have to buy at exorbitant prices; everything can be decorated with printed stickers, polka dot ribbons, and appliques. Don't forget to decorate for the holidays high chair and a crib;

A chic surprise for 2 years - a children's car tuned with their own hands! It's simple - attach ears and a bow (with a drill from the inside), spray paint it pink or red (on the street), paste it over with circles.

  • make a birthday number and congratulatory banner . There are many templates on the Internet, almost all ideas are easy to repeat. For example, topper - print the font, cut stationery knife made of thick cardboard, painted. A number made from paper flowers - glue the buds onto the base as a continuous carpet (with double-sided tape);
  • Even though this is a children's party in the Minnie Mouse style, fresh flowers will fit perfectly - the holiday is for a girl, after all.! But on a modest budget, they can be replaced with paper ones. Huge buds look great in bouquets in the center of the main table, in vases on the floor, near the candy bar, hanging on ribbons from the ceiling;

  • place the toys - Minnie herself, Mickey, Goofy, Pluto and other heroes. Life-size characters made from cardboard with your own hands: draw on whatman paper or print, cut out the silhouette, glue with double-sided tape (moisture causes the cardboard to deform);
  • doll castles, decorative carriages and birdcages, various fashionable things - handbags, beautiful outfits on hangers and mannequins, children's cosmetics, ladies' accessories. Of course, everything is in the Minnie Mouse style - princesses, fashionistas and just real girl with their inherent desires and weaknesses;

  • arrange an exhibition of photos of the birthday girl(for 1 year by month, for 2 years and older - the funniest pictures). They can be hung randomly on a large background in the shape of Minnie’s head, or each photo separately, first on a background picture, and then assembled into a garland.

Cut out mini bows from paper with polka dots, glue them to some pictures as if there was a bow on the birthday girl’s head - it will turn out funny and unexpected. Ribbon bows are suitable for decorating anything - curtains, tablecloths, garlands, chandeliers, etc.

  • the atmosphere of a wonderful garden mixed with cartoon charm: fake fence, imitation flower beds, cardboard trees, grass and clouds, butterfly birds, cute little animals.

Luxurious photo zone - a castle with turrets and windows made of a large sheet of cardboard. You can get a cheerful background if you print out a scene from a cartoon (a huge poster). Since characters are easy to sketch, it is not difficult to make tantamaresques or individual characters with holes for their faces.

Invitations

Theme party, children's day birthday - how can you do without invitations? In Minnie Mouse style, of course! Making such an invitation with your own hands is not at all difficult; there are many ideas on the Internet.

The most popular is the silhouette of a head with ears and a bow, onto which a card with text or a pocket for it is glued. You can simply print out the pictures you like, sign in the editor “I invite you,” “Anechka is 2 years old,” etc., and stick it on thick cardboard with text on the back.

It’s no more difficult to cut out a card in the shape of a bow, Minnie Mouse herself and/or her friends (everyone has a different invitation). An unusual format is to buy a themed balloon, inflate it, write the text with a marker, dry it with a hairdryer, deflate it and attach it to a postcard.

Suits

And everything is simple here, especially if it’s a 1-2 year birthday. Although a Minnie Mouse style outfit for older girls won’t take much time either. Decorate the T-shirt with an appliqué made from pieces of fabric, sew fluffy skirt from ribbons, satin or tulle, make ears on the headband - done! Such suits can be made for all guests by asking parents for measurements (loose shorts with suspenders for boys).

Ears can be made from hair, if there is enough length: gather them into ponytails, pull out a loop, comb the ends and hide them inside the loop. All that remains is to carefully straighten the “ear” like a fan and secure it along the edges with bobby pins.

If one of the parents does not prepare themed outfit, will help out holiday attributes and accessories in the style of Minnie Mouse. For girls, hair decorations (hairpins, bows), for boys - bow ties or polka dot ties. For everyone, including adults - caps, ears on headbands, masks and character hats.

Menu, serving

The theme is so popular that even regular stores sell decorations for tables and dishes, tablecloths, and dishes. Cupcake toppers, bottle labels, chocolate and candy wrappers, boxes, popcorn cones and other bulk treats - everything is there, ready-made and templates.

Molds for muffins and cupcakes look nice with a pattern that continues the topper on the toothpick. Only the price is off the charts, but you can print out suitable pictures, make a topper from the top, and bottom part glue onto the finished mold.

Styrofoam balls (1 head, 2 ears) make multifunctional decorations. You can use toothpicks to attach chocolate-covered strawberries, marmalades, and flowers (topiary in a pot) to them.

From an aluminum can cut into strips, make molds for cutting dough, biscuits, cheese and sausage. Print a b/w picture, cut out a stencil - now you can sprinkle cocoa and confetti on any dessert.

Watch MK about how to make Minnie Mouse from fondant- no more difficult than sculpting from plasticine! Figurines different sizes you can decorate not only birthday cake, but also any desserts that keep their shape. Mastic paint at home natural dyes or juice.

The choice of menu is at your discretion, since there is no connection between the treats and the theme. Of course, since this is a children's birthday, the main emphasis is on decorating the candy bar and a large assortment sweets. In addition to juices, buy plain water. For ambience, place a cheese plate with mice sitting around their favorite delicacy.

Entertainment

If you're planning a Minnie Mouse themed party for 1-2 years, a script probably isn't needed. But it’s worth thinking about entertainment: safe game Zone, Finger paint, musical toys. Download funny songs from cartoons and any children's ones suitable for a festive atmosphere.

Our Minnie Mouse-themed birthday scenario will be of interest to children aged 3 to 7 years. If the children are older, the competitions can be made more difficult (place obstacles, limit time/attempts), and change the riddles. The plot of the script is simple, without a lot of details - it’s difficult to get little kids to listen to the presenter for a long time, they find it boring.

So, Minnie the kitten lost her fish (toys, cut out of paper). According to the script, for each completed task, the guys receive a hint about where the next one is hidden. First, they look in the room for something that matches the answer, and there they look for the fish.


Comic quiz so that shy guests join the game:

  • Is Minnie (M.) a bear, a monkey or a mouse?
  • Who is M for Mickey Mouse - a talkative neighbor, a pet or a faithful girlfriend?
  • Does M. usually have an umbrella, a candy wrapper, a bow on his head?
  • Does M. have bright patches on his paws, chocolate stains or white gloves?
  • M.'s kitten's name is Pierrot, Bucket, Figaro?

Leading: That's right, Figaro! Such a playful, funny kitten. Only today he is sad for some reason. He probably misses his fish, which Minnie and Mickey give him for all the holidays. Let's help Figaro find his favorite toys? (Yes Yes!). Then here's your first riddle:

Z They lock it tightly, in the summer they open it wide

It starts with “O” and ends with “O” (the fish is hidden behind a curtain or under flower pot on the window).

IN: To receive hints, you will need to pass very difficult and terribly dangerous tests! Aren't you afraid? As a reward for each I promise you new riddle, by which you can find another fish. Do you agree?

Who is this?

Cut out a castle with windows or just circles in a sheet of colored cardboard. Print pictures of the characters in such a size that they can be covered with “holey” props. The younger the children, the larger the holes. The goal is to guess who is in the castle (or behind the polka dot piece of paper). 5-7 pictures are enough. Riddle as a reward:

His mistress covers him,

Guests are cordially invited to it (under the table, taped to the lid)

Catch Pluto (got wild!)

Throw rings on pins/bottles with a picture of Pluto. Rings: several rounds of cardboard glued together for weight. The older the children, the further the distance and the more weight must be at the “shell”. Since this is a children's party, and even for girls, glue on top of the rings colored paper in the style of Minnie Mouse - a trifle, but the props will fit into the atmosphere.


Mystery:

Crew without horses

Place it in the garage at night (inside or with tape on the bottom of the car)

Don't Wake Pete

One of the parents in the role of Pete is a fat cat with a bad character. Pete lies on the floor, closing his eyes and snoring. Scattered around it are pieces of yellow foam rubber - cheese (the more, the merrier). You need to quietly sneak up and steal the treat (1 approach - 1 piece). Pete sometimes wakes up, wants to grab the impudent little mice, grumbles terribly - the children run away screaming until the cat goes back to sleep.

Walking through the forest in a brown coat

All the honey and raspberries will go to... (to the bear, with a clothespin on a soft toy)

Bring Daisy's cake

Place a life-size silhouette or a toy at the finish line, although you can get by. The goal is to carry the balloon lying on the plate. For schoolchildren with one hand, let the kids carry the plate in two hands. You can race.

May it be summer outside the window,

But there is frost and cold in it (inside the refrigerator, with a magnet on the door - whatever you want, put a doll in the room or go to the kitchen).

Mouse race

A strip of fabric with holes that parents hold at some distance from the floor. You need to go through the “track”, stepping into the slots. You can wobble the fabric, it will be even more fun, but only if these are not really kids - they will fall! According to the script, to fit the game into the Minnie Mouse style, it will be a huge piece of cheese (yellow fabric).

There are legs, but he doesn’t run

But the table follows you around the house! (under one of the chairs on tape)

Catch the tail

Ribbons of the same length are attached to the belt, like ponytails (with Velcro to the dress, if not, something to tuck in). Under cheerful music the children dance until the leader suddenly shouts “Grab it!” You have to steal anyone’s ribbon, but don’t let them steal your own. Everyone runs away in all directions until the leader says “Stop” - they dance again until “Grab.” And so on until you get tired of it.

I whistle and puff, I rattle the lid loudly -

I invite everyone for tea with cheesecake and crumpet (bring a children’s teapot or bring it from the kitchen, put it somewhere in the corner, with a fish inside).

IN: What great fellows you all are! For helping Figaro, accept gifts from Minnie!

Gifts – sweet sets, Minnie Mouse style accessories for girls, coloring books, themed toys.


Additional entertainment that can be included in the script or prepared just in case so that you don’t get bored after the main program:

  • blindfolded, place a bow on the drawing;
  • feed the mouse by throwing “cheese” into the hole where the mouth should be (box + picture);
  • color Minnie's dress (cut out with “loops”, like paper dolls);
  • collect beads or other decoration (if there are only girls at the party);
  • peel nuts for Daisy (wrap them in candy wrappers, 2 teams, speed).

Read another version of the script

When Mickey the mouse first appeared on television screens, he was in black and white. Only after some time had passed did his suspender shorts turn bright red. Since that time, the color scheme consisting of these three colors has been associated throughout the world with the hero of the Disney cartoon. Thanks to this, a children's birthday in the style of Mickey Mouse is easy and very interesting to prepare with my own hands. Here are some ideas and tips for theme day birth.

Invitations

It is always nice to receive a postcard made by yourself, because when making it, a person puts his soul into it. Mickey Mouse themed birthday invitations for guests can be made using cardboard, fabric and buttons. We cut out a template in the shape of a mouse's head from cardboard, apply it to black fabric, cut it out, and glue the fabric to the cardboard. Then we make a pocket from red fabric, it should be about halfway up Mickey’s head, and we sew it on, and we sew two white buttons on it. A piece of paper with the text of the invitation is placed in this pocket.

You can come up with any text. The main thing is not to sound ordinary. For example: “Hello, ...! Congratulations on joining the Mickey Mouse Club, which is located at ...! .... on the date at ... time there will be a festive party in honor of our birthday mutual friend…. Come, it will be fun! Your Mickey."

Room decoration

Decorations for the birthday boy’s room can be purchased at specialized stores for the holidays or made yourself. How can you decorate a room?

First, these are garlands. A multi-colored themed garland in the form of flags will help you immediately create. It is advisable that polka dot flags periodically alternate in the garland. You can hang a poster with illustrations from the cartoon on the walls. On a piece of whatman paper, write in Disney's signature font the name of the birthday boy and how old he is.

A good idea would be to make a photo collage of 12-24 photos of the child per last year. They will look original in black and white colors. You can place them on a sheet of whatman paper and place them in a large red photo frame, having previously decorated it with Mickey Mouse ears.

Photozone

An excellent solution would be to cover the photo area with a plain fabric, for example, burgundy. Place several chairs and seat cartoon characters on them - Mickey Pluto and others. These can be ordinary soft toys. You can hang inflatable balloons in the background, decorative balls. Of course, everything should be in three colors (red, white, black). You can also print out large images of cartoons and hang them up too.

Photos in the style of Mickey Mouse should be bright and positive, so you can add a few more attributes to the external design. They can be made from red and black cardboard. Cut out shapes in the form of a mustache, glasses, Mickey ears, a hat and a bow. Glue each of them individually with tape onto a long stick. You can also use caps, bows, butterflies and a harmonica. Such a photo session will turn out to be unforgettable and very beautiful.

Candy bar decoration

Candy bar is one of the most important attributes of everyone today children's day birth. Don’t forget about decorating a birthday party in the style of Mickey Mouse. We use a tablecloth of thematic colors, hang helium or foil inflatable balloons on the sides of the table, and in the center of the table we put (or hang above the table) a portrait of the birthday boy hugging his favorite mouse.

Treats for the candy bar

You need to choose the favorite and national food of the cartoon character. That is, cheese and American cuisine. What could it be:


You can choose from Mickey Mouse and Minnie themed birthday drinks ginger tea, Mickey's signature lemonade and fruit smoothie.

Festive table and cake

Serving festive table for a birthday in the style of Mickey Mouse should also be fully consistent with the overall theme. In order not to go overboard with primary colors, you can also use a yellow tone in your holiday decorations. Cover the table beautiful tablecloth with polka dots, fold the napkins into a Minnie bow and place them on top of the plates. Place one on each chair balloon, distribute striped drinking straws to the children.

Decorate the table with cookies or gingerbread in the shape of Mickey and Minnie, branded bottles of lemonade. Can also be used glass bottles with Coca-Cola, they will also fit perfectly into the holiday theme. From the main dishes, prepare everything that the birthday boy likes. In addition to the drinks used for the candy bar, you can also offer children milkshakes.

For a Mickey Mouse-themed birthday, a boy's cake can be made in the shape of a mouse's head, and a girl's - Minnie's. Such a cake, covered with mastic, will look very impressive. A special fireworks candle will perfectly complement the atmosphere of fun.

Suits

Decorating for a party is, of course, very important, but don’t forget about costumes. It is worth choosing the appropriate outfit not only for the hero of the occasion, but for his/her parents. You can buy a themed outfit in the shape of your favorite hero, but they very often look too intrusive. Moreover, around the child there will already be plenty of three-dimensional and flat images of the mouse and his friends. It is best to choose clothes in appropriate colors and complement the look with bright accessories.

Accessories

On a Mickey Mouse-themed birthday, it’s worth stocking up on accessories not only for the birthday boy, but also for his guests. Girls should be offered headbands with bows and Mickey ears, boys - butterflies. You can give out white gloves to everyone, and also make festive caps on which you can stick an image of Disney cartoon characters or write the name of the birthday boy and how old he is. Personalized caps for guests will look original. Kids will be able to keep them as a souvenir, and it will become easier for children to get to know each other!

Games and competitions

It would be a great idea to invite animators to the holiday, who will happily play the role of your favorite characters. Professionals also have a special, pre-prepared script. A Mickey Mouse themed birthday will be even more fun if you prepare more different games and competitions.

Let's make Mickey. Give your guests pieces of pastry fondant, puff pastry or plasticine and give them a master class on sculpting a Disney cartoon. Each child will be able to make a souvenir for themselves and keep it as a keepsake, and if it’s mastic, then decorate a birthday cake with it.

Best Pluto. The kids will be happy to compete with each other to see which of them barks better. A fun and noisy competition will be fun entertainment for everyone. And the winner, of course, will receive a prize!

Sleeping giant. One of my favorites active games for children. One of the adults lies down on the floor and pretends to be a sleeping giant, with a lot of soft toys. Children must carefully collect all the toys without waking the giant. And naturally, the giant will wake up at the most unexpected moments and grab the laughing guys by the arms and legs.

Bowling. To organize the game you will need a regular set for children's bowling. To keep the Mickey Mouse themed birthday party, stick pictures of the cartoon characters on the pins and balloons. Divide the kids into teams and have a real bowling competition. Dynamic and catchy music will make the game even more fun and active.

Who is faster? Quite an old game that absolutely everyone knows. But that doesn’t stop kids from liking her. Print out a large image of a mouse on regular A4 sheets. There should be one less sheet than the number of participants in the competition. We lay out the leaves in a circle, the children stand around, turn on a quick, cheerful melody and run! The second the music stops, the children must take their place on the piece of paper. A child who does not have time is eliminated. The game continues further, before the next stage the presenter picks up from the floor one piece of paper with the image of a cartoon character.

Bones for Pluto. Hide fake dog bones somewhere in an inconspicuous place before the holiday. You can buy them at any pet store. Tell the children that the dog Pluto hid his bones, and now he can’t find them himself and asks them for help. Give your kids a real treasure hunt competition! Divide them into two teams. To diversify the quest, use traces and arrows previously posted around the room. Prepare riddles and puzzles so that the children can think and, in the end, find the lost bones. Don't forget to reward the winning team with sweet prizes.

Prizes

For a child's birthday party in the style of Mickey Mouse, it is not difficult to find many small and inexpensive gifts and souvenirs which kids are sure to love. Following the theme of the holiday, children can be given:

  • coloring books;
  • stickers;
  • puzzles;
  • bubble;
  • magnets;
  • sweets;
  • pens or pencils;
  • notepads;
  • hairpins;
  • keychains and much more.

Organizing and decorating a holiday for a child is fun and very exciting activity for parents. Recreating and immersing yourself in the atmosphere of a Disney cartoon is so wonderful. The world of childhood, kindness, carelessness and fun will make you forget about your problems and for a moment become a child again. And for your beloved child, such a celebration will become one of the most memorable birthdays in life!

Along with new Disney cartoons, the characters of which are quickly gaining popularity among young viewers, there are also those that can safely be called classics, and which have not lost their relevance for many years. One of these cartoons is the adventures of Mickey Mouse. The main character of the cartoon has a girlfriend Minnie - a fashionista and a beauty, little girls love her very much, so it would be important to organize a birthday party in the style of Minnie Mouse for the little princess. And we will consider the nuances of design and organization of such a holiday in this article.

Black color is far from festive, but in this case it will be more than appropriate. Black on this holiday goes well with pink or red. Polka dot print is trendy. But if you are against black, then you can not adhere to the classic color scheme of the main characters, and use the entire decor in any other color, for example, gold.

Well, now let’s take a closer look at how to decorate a birthday party in the style of Minnie Mouse with your own hands.

Invitations

This is the first thing that is done for the holiday. For a standard card, choose a pink background and an image of the main character of the cartoon - this will be quite enough for a regular invitation. If you want to create something more creative, you can cut out cards from colored cardboard, making their edges curly, and decorating them with a gold figurine in the form of a head with ears. Well, the most interesting option- a card in the shape of a head with ears, on which is tied a cheerful pink bow with white polka dots.

Garlands, streamers, photo collages

We make a themed garland from paper figures in the form of Minnie's head. You can diversify it with paper bows, gloves, and hearts. Interesting idea— tie small tulle bows on the elements of the garland.

We also make streamers in the shape of Minnie - this is the most popular design option for a holiday in this theme. Another way is to print and cut out the letters of congratulations and add ears to them. Unusual idea— we supplement the stretching elements with photographs of the birthday girl and get a festive photo collage.

Another option for a photo collage is to place the photo on a large black template in the shape of Minnie’s head.

We welcome guests and dress them up in Minnie style

At the door, guests may be greeted by a sign with the main character of the cartoon or a garland of signs indicating that fun awaits them. If you plan to celebrate the holiday at the dacha or in a private house, you can decorate the path to the house with Minnie figures, which can be easily made from disposable paper plates.

And so that our guests are also in holiday style, we give them cute caps with ears and bows at the entrance. A more interesting option is hoops with ears, and girls will certainly like bright bows on hairpins or elastic bands that they can wear all evening and then take with them as a souvenir of the holiday.

Decorative numbers and letters

More often volumetric figure For a Minnie Mouse birthday party, make it pink or red with white polka dots. The upper part of the number can be made black. If you are not a supporter of standard solutions, you can make a number to suit your taste, for example, as in the photo - gold, but the obligatory attributes of the number are ears and a bow.

We decorate three-dimensional letters using the same principle.

Lantern balls

You can’t do a holiday without such traditional decor as balloons. The easiest option is to purchase foil balloons in the shape of Minnie Mouse's face.

If you want something more stylish, you will have to make a little effort and make Chinese lantern And paper pom poms Minnie's head, decorating it with a large pink bow.

Birthday girl outfit

Let's consider the most spectacular image which requires minimum costs and effort - fluffy skirt made of tulle and a T-shirt with the face of Minnie Mouse. The skirt can be either plain - pink or red, or in combination with black. Will complement festive look bright bow.

Festive table

We decorate it in the chosen color scheme. A polka dot, red and red print would be appropriate here. pink colors. And to make it clear that our holiday is in the style of Minnie Mouse, we decorate in black disposable plates cute ears and napkins folded into a bow.

It is also advisable to choose black or pink cutlery, as well as napkins. We decorate the cutlery with Minnie figures or simply decorate it with a napkin folded in a bow.

The theme should also be present in the design of the dishes. Here are some options for serving snacks:

Sweet table, drinks, cake

A candy bar wouldn’t be complete without a red-black or pink-black color scheme. Here, as in the decoration of the entire holiday, polka dots are relevant.

It’s easy to make sweets for a candy bar at home - Minnie ears can be made from either fondant or round chocolate cookies. For drink bottles, we prepare labels with white polka dots with the image of a cartoon heroine.

Gingerbread cookies painted with icing look lovely on a sweet table.

Well main sweetness holiday - cake. Here are some ideas for it:

Entertainment

Diversifying the leisure time of guests at a holiday is not an easy task, and it is even more difficult to come up with games and competitions that fit the theme. Here is a selection of entertainment that you can do at a Minnie Mouse themed birthday party:

Attach a bow

Standard entertainment for children's parties, stylized according to the Minnie theme: attach a bow to the head of the cartoon heroine. We do this, of course, blindfolded. The result is not so important here, but the process of hitting the target itself is interesting) Other guests can, if desired, give hints to the participant.

Minnie bowling

Minimum props - maximum fun. For this game, a few bottles decorated with Minnie figures and a ball with which we will knock down these bottles will be enough. The principle is the same as in regular bowling - to knock down maximum amount bottles

Throwing balls

We make a stand with holes in the shape of the head and ears. The child's goal is to throw the maximum number of balls into the holes.

This game can be played in the form of a relay race, when each participant runs to the stand and tries to throw the ball. At the end, we count the number of balls thrown by each team.

Face painting

A creative type of entertainment that can be done at the very beginning of the holiday, so that little guests can spend the holiday in the form of mice.

Wooden puzzle

Very easy to do. The main thing is to stock up on ice cream sticks. Draw Minnie with paints different colors, then mix the sticks. Children must first select sticks of their color and then put them together to make a picture.

Plate

Each guest can write a wish for the birthday girl on the plate. Such a plate will decorate a child's room and will remind you of the fun moments of the holiday.

Gingerbread

Before the holiday, we bake gingerbread cookies in the shape of Minnie, prepare sugar icing of different colors, and confectionery topping. Children decorate their own gingerbread, which they can take home with them.

Coloring

Same a good option keep the kids busy at the party and great way give them a little rest between outdoor games and competitions.

Photo zone and photo attributes

In addition to standard photo attributes in the form of mustaches, sponges, glasses, we make attributes in the form of ears, gloves, bows. Attributes can be combined with each other to make the photos fun and unusual.

A simple option for a homemade home photo zone is a few paper fans decorated with Minnie figures and her accessories.

Which Disney character is the most famous? Most likely, most will answer this question like this: Mickey Mouse. The black and white mouse appeared on screens in 1928, and since then its popularity has only grown. So why not use a cartoon style with this character for your party?!

Preparation for the holiday

So that everything is fun and memorable only with positive side, you need to carefully prepare for the event:

  1. and send (distribute) to those whom the child wants to see at his celebration. The invitation must indicate the theme of the event - this way the children will understand that they need to choose the appropriate outfit.
  2. Write a script or just a list of competitions for the holiday. Stock up on prizes for the winners - black ears, polka dot bows for girls, pencils and others stationery with the image of a Disney mouse, etc.
  3. Create a menu and purchase disposable tableware V the desired style.
  4. Decorate the room in primary colors - black, white, red. If it is large, then you can make compositions from balloons. For a small room, several balls in one bunch in the corner, character figurines on shelves, armchairs and sofas, colorful flags.
  5. Just in case, you need to stock up on paints, brushes, markers, pencils and albums. Children love to draw, especially cartoon characters. Perhaps they just want to relax this way, or maybe it’s worth organizing a competition among young artists.

It's not just parents who need to do the preparation. The child himself will be very pleased to participate in organizing the holiday. However, if you want to surprise your baby, then all this must be done behind his back. And if the celebration takes place in an apartment, then it will have to be decorated at night while the child is sleeping.

Games and competitions

Games at the holiday should be both active and calm. It's better to start with the latest:

  1. Quiz on the knowledge of Disney characters: “who is Pluto”, “what is the name of the most famous Disney duck”, “what is Goofy’s character”, etc.
  2. Outdoor game “Collect bows”. Cardboard bows are scattered on the floor, like those of Minnie, the girlfriend of the Disney mouse. While the music is playing, the children collect these bows, and when the music ends, they must be counted, and whoever has the most wins.
  3. Drawing. You need to draw Mickey's face with your eyes closed. More easy option competition - attach cardboard ears to the finished image (also blindfolded).
  4. Conductor. Each child takes turns acting as a conductor, and the rest make sounds from what they got, at the conductor’s command. As musical instruments you can use regular spoons, a rubber squeaky toy, an upside-down bowl of pencils, etc.
  5. Star mice. Where else has this animal appeared? In what cartoons, films or fairy tales? The kids must take turns saying the names; whoever names the most wins.

All games and competitions should be alternated with watching cartoons and eating. And if the choice of cartoons is obvious, then you will have to “conjure” the menu.

Treat

It’s logical to choose dishes that kids will outwardly associate with the hero:

  1. Small sandwiches decorated with olives and eggs that make up Mouse's face.
  2. Ears cut from pineapple circles.
  3. Hot dogs with vegetables.
  4. Sweet popcorn.
  5. The juice is red.
  6. Chocolate cupcakes or muffins decorated with bows.
  7. Cookies in the shape of Mickey's head.
  8. A big cake, which is best made to order. Let there be a figurine of a mouse on it, and each layer will resemble a reel of film tape.

In principle, any dish will go with a bang if it is presented beautifully and in accordance with the theme of the celebration. For example, juice can be poured into glasses decorated with ears, and black plates can be decorated with bows of red napkins.

You can end the holiday with a big photo session. Let every guest have a photo. To do this, you can call a professional photographer or order a photo booth if the party is taking place, for example, in a cafe.

Very good idea organize face painting at children's party. Children love this kind of entertainment and may want to transform themselves not only into the main character, but also into someone else. Therefore, it is necessary to have a professional work.

Valuable experience

With the advent of Miroslava, a pleasant annual tradition was formed in our family - to prepare in advance for her birthday. After all, this day has become one of our most important and interesting family holidays.

This is how ideas are born

The first thing I always do is choose a theme for the holiday, then think about what colors to decorate it in. When the time came to prepare for our baby’s third birthday, I had the idea to dedicate this holiday to some cartoon character. At first, my daughter rejected all my options, but after some time, on the contrary, she agreed to all the characters. Then I went to my favorite sites for inspiration. https://ru.pinterest.com And https://www.etsy.com. I made a small selection of children's birthdays and in this, already more attractive form showed all the best options, in my opinion, to the baby. She immediately chose the well-known Disney characters Mickey and Minnie. This is how the theme for our holiday was born.

And here color scheme I chose coral and gold, rather than the standard red and white with which we associate these characters.

Individual approach

I started preparing for my daughter’s birthday several months in advance, almost six months in advance, since there are a lot of nuances in this matter. Every detail requires attention, and I myself initially wanted to do everything in a calm atmosphere, without rushing anywhere. In order not to keep everything in my head, I started a special diary and wrote down clear plan holiday program. And I even sketched how to arrange the dishes on the table and hang decorative elements.

We decided on the location for filming right away: our choice was to the Naked Studio photo studio. She captivated us with its huge area and original design interior We started primarily from our strategic objectives: we needed a spacious room, a minimum of decor and very good light. By the way, I recommend everyone in advance, before booking a photo studio, read the rental rules. In some places they charge an additional fee for holding an event; sometimes you have to pay extra for guests if the limit on the number of people present in the studio is exceeded.

As soon as we chose the date and location of the holiday, made an advance payment and our reservation was confirmed, we immediately began looking for a photographer and makeup artist. After all, you want to keep the memories of the brightest moments of a child’s life for a long time! Choosing a photographer is a very responsible matter, andIt’s better to trust the professionals; they will definitely not miss a single important moment. I had no doubts about this issue: we invited our family photographer, friend and simply wonderful person Elena Zhun @ elena _ zhundetifoto. She knows how to work with children, she will always tell you how best to get up and, when necessary, she will be able to cheer up anyone. In addition to the photographer, we also had videographer Alexander Pavlov @ pavlovapik – he captured our emotions.

Important Details

Preparing for a birthday takes a lot of time and effort; there is a lot to do. And like any woman, on this day I wanted to look perfect, and not be tortured and tired. Therefore, in this matter I completely trusted professional makeup artist Yulia Abramova @abramova. pro . I have never regretted it! She understood me perfectly and did flawless makeup

and styling for me and our grandmother, and for my daughter - very cute curls. Decorations for a children's birthday create the necessary atmosphere and. festive mood By paper I try not to overuse it, so at the party I only used wrappers for cupcakes, chocolates and water. Very a good choice Online https://www.etsy.com. Ta m can be purchased or ready-made holiday set or order the elements you like separately, as I did. Material for printing was sent to us at in electronic format

. At the printing center I only printed out the blanks, and cut and glued them myself. It was not difficult for me; on the contrary, I received great pleasure from the process.

In the invitations that we sent to the guests, I indicated wishes for the color of clothing; we did not have a strict dress code. Only the birthday girl had 2 dresses: a silk one with sequins and a Minnie dress, which we purchased a year before the holiday, not even suspecting that one day we would have a birthday party in the “Mickey and Minnie” style.

A voluminous air arch made of balloons in the shape of Mickey Mouse ears served as an ideal backdrop for photo shoots.

For all times

To preserve all the congratulations and wishes of the guests, every year we order a book of wishes, also in the chosen style. This can be done, for example, on the website https://www.livemaster.ru. You just need to place your wishes in the order table, and the needlewomen themselves will offer you several design options to choose from.

Dear guests

To make my daughter feel comfortable own day birth, we called close relatives, our friends and our daughter’s friends - these were people she knew well. We always invite friends as families, always in full force and always with their dads. I just imagined how unpleasant it would be for me if only my daughter and I were invited, and dad was told not to come. Therefore, this point became mandatory for me!

Entertainment

We completely entrusted this part of the celebration to professionals in their field - animators from the Lobacheva Project @lobacheva_project.

When choosing a team of animators, we were guided by reviews: it is very important that the animators easily find mutual language with kids. We discussed the program with them in advance and told them the names, ages and number of children.

We ordered a 2-hour program and 2 animators dressed as Mickey and Minnie. There were only three children, it was possible to get by with one animator, but I couldn’t imagine Minnie without her Mickey, so it was decided to invite two actors.

We have prepared funny mouse ears for the birthday girl and guests. While the children were taking Active participation during games, adults took pictures and enjoyed communication. At the end of the holiday, the birthday girl gave each child small gift, and all guests will receive a personalized chocolate bar.
