Wild Kingdom Party: Decorate animal masks, play pin the tail on the donkey and take a bite out of a zoo-themed cake covered with animal figurines.
Party in a Park: Venture near the Duckling’s natural habitat: a park! After an outdoor puppet show, take in the wildlife all around, have a water fight worthy of a happy swan’s splashing and eat some tasty food fresh off the grill.
Just Ducky Party: Explore the world of the Ugly Duckling’s brothers and sisters. Pass out duck-quack whistles and decorate bath-time rubber duckies. Make wear-able duck bills and wings and quack to a Five Little Ducks singalong. Top it all off with a pond-themed birthday cake complete with a duckie centerpiece.
- Hansel and Gretel
- Goldilocks and the Three Bears
