Just one thing that kids all seem to love is an animal or the plural, much the dismay of parents. Your kids may go on and on endlessly about how much the want a pet or a pony or a tiger or a.... well you get the idea. Of course there are quite a few reasons why you can't get the exotic ones, but is always an unwanted duty to tell a kid he can't have a cat because you'd end up taking care of him. Well, at the very least you might be able throw your kid a animal themed party. A banner or two, a few animal themed movies, some animal would all be included in a simple party. Some of the complicated things would involve some origami animals as decorations, wall scrolls, a trip to the zoo, etc.
An animal party menu can be so much fun for you and the kids. Why not start off with some party favor packages of animal crackers? While the kids are munching on those you can put together your buffet of animal themed foods. Some chicken fingers and fish sticks are fun and easy to pick up. You'll also be able to set out different zesty sauces for dipping. Chocolate Spiders are yummy and creepy, while Elephant ears are a great carnival food to have at home. Cheetos, are a cheesy snack item with a cheetah for a mascot and beef jerky can be a fun and interesting treat to try for those cow lovers. Don't forget to set out some roughage for the vegetarian animal lovers. A nice salad for the grazers is tasty and some fruits like bananas are great for the little monkeys.
Chocolate Spiders are easy to make and very yummy at your animal party. All you need is a bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips and some Chow Mein noodles. Melt the chocolate chips in a sauce pan and pour in the dried noodles. Scoop out clumps to place on wax paper to cool. When cool you can serve up the chocolaty treat to your more adventurous animal lovers.
Well, however you chose to take care of the party, just remember the most important thing at the end of the party, no it's not clean up though you'll want to pick up some disposable every things for that. It's your kids renewed interest in wanting an animal all their own.
