Introduction and <strong>Party</strong> Invitations<br />

Polka dots are a special theme for a small child. Make sure to keep with the dot theme<br />

by having everything be colorful circles, from decorations to food. Also, to make it<br />

easier for you, decide on two to three colors for the polka dots so that you can limit<br />

colors of balloons, etc. It may be easiest to choose your child’s favorite colors.<br />

Cut out large polka dots and write the party information on them.<br />

<strong>Party</strong> Tip: Invite everyone to dress in polka dots.<br />

Decorations<br />

Cut out large dots in a variety of colors and decorate the party room with them.<br />

Write the letters of “Happy <strong>Birthday</strong>” on some of the larger dots. String the message<br />

together as a welcome greeting to your guests.<br />

Have balloons tied in groups of three different colors in the party room.<br />

Have a polka dot tablecloth for the party table. You can match it with polka dot<br />

accessories, or use primary colors and put a dot on the cups or the plates.<br />

Stick polka dots all over the guests once they enter the party.<br />

Games and Activities<br />

Hide dots that you have cut out in different colors. Upon entering the party, give each<br />

kid a dot name tag with a different color. Later on, during the party, have the kids find<br />

the dots in the party room or outside in the yard that match their name tag color. Tell<br />

them how many there are to find. Once they have found all of their dots, give them a<br />

prize.<br />

Play Polka Dot Bingo. Make little bingo cards with different colored dots. Call out the<br />

colors and the first child who gets four colors straight in a row wins a prize.<br />

Play Pin the Dot on the Dog. You could draw a Dalmatian and have multiple black<br />

spots, and the kids have to pin their dots on the dog where there is open space.<br />

Play Musical Dots, similar to Musical Chairs. <strong>Us</strong>e squares of cardboard with a big<br />

colored dot on each one instead of chairs.<br />

<strong>Party</strong> Menu<br />

Serve small, round food to your guests to keep with the dot theme:<br />

Sandwiches cut out as circles. Add dots to the bread by making little holes with a<br />

cotton swab and filling the holes with food coloring<br />

Fruit balls, such as melon balls, and globe grapes<br />

Cheese balls<br />

Round cookies<br />

Serve the party menu as a bagged lunch and decorate the bags with multiple dots.<br />

<strong>Party</strong> Favors<br />

Kids can decorate their own paper goody bags with dots — either with stickers or<br />

by drawing and coloring. Fill the goody bags with whichever circle toys/candy are<br />

appropriate for each guest’s age: rubber balls, bubbles, strips of dot candy, bubble<br />

gum, gum balls, round memo pads, round erasers, etc.<br />
