Dora Party

My daughter just turned 3 and she LOVES Dora!

So, we had a Dora-themed party, complete with a treasure hunt.  The treasure hunt was great - I used the tunnel from her tunnel/tent set, blew up a camping mattress for the kids to jump on and over (crocodile lake) and then scattered party favors all around the yard.  We first decorated plain, white party bags, and then I explained that Swiper had swiped all of the party favors - so, with Map in hand, I explained they had to go through the tunnel, over crocodile lake and to the tree with the party favors. 


For the food, I kept it simple.  I made cards by finding an image on the internet and pasting it into word and adding a title - so, we had Dora's Drinks, Diego's Animal Rescue Crackers, Boots' Bananas, Swiper's Strawberries, Tico's Tortilla Chips and Salsa, and Benny's Cheese. 


Cupcakes were fairly easy too - my 3 year old helped me make them and we used purple and pink (store bought) frosting and added little cupcake toppers that I found on amazon. 

Balloons were of course a big hit - we kept with a Dora-color theme, pink, purple and orange.  I am not good at this type of thing and I think we pulled it off pretty well!
