Candyland Birthday Party

We think Candyland is the best game ever! We also think it makes a fun, sweet, and yummy birthday party. So, plan a Candyland theme birthday party and it will have your guests shouting "Goody Goody Gumdrops!"
You can also buy fill in the blank Candyland invitations. Just fill out the details and you're all set. There are even matching thank you notes that you'll want to get for after the party.

There is also a fun personalized Candyland theme candy bar wrapper that can be used as an invitation. You'll want to mail it in a padded envelope. Imagine how excited the kids will be when they are invited to a birthday party and the invitation is made of chocolate!

No matter what invitation you choose, include a sheet of Candyland stickers in each invitation to get the kids even more excited for the party.

Once you are inside, a personalized Candyland banner is a great way to welcome your guests to the party. Hang it at the entrance to the party.

Create your own candy balloon display for your party and make everyone feel like they are in Candyland! Take round latex balloons and twist them inside large sheets of colored cellophane. Twist and tie the ends to look like candy. These balloon candies can be hung from the ceiling, used on tables or scattered on the floor around the party.

Balloon bouquets are great fun and work perfectly for such a bright and fun party. Mix Candyland Mylar balloons with an assortment of brightly colored latex balloons and create balloon bouquets for around the room. (Don't forget the helium!)

Candyland favor boxes make great centerpiece bases. Take more of the Candyland Mylar balloons and mix with an assortment of brightly colored latex balloons tied to the boxes for a bright and fun centerpiece! You can also use the Candyland board game (in the box) as a base for your balloons.

And, you know the cards that come with the Candyland game? They make great confetti! Another great idea for confetti? Real gumdrops! You can get them at any drug store or candy store. Personalized swirl lollipops also make great confetti on the table. You can also get candy from a local drug store to scatter on the table. Set a bag of cotton candy at each place...or save them for dessert and set up a big display of the fun pink bags.

We love to use candy necklaces or bracelets as napkin rings. And, speaking of candy, serve fun fruity drinks in red plastic goblets and use candy stirrers - candy canes, candy sticks or even licorice!

For dessert, have a "candy bar". I don't mean an actual bar of chocolate, but a large table filled with bags, jars and bowls and absolute mountains of all kinds of candy. We recommend wrapped candy and chocolates. (And, please be aware of any allergies before buying your candy.) Each guest may fill a small bag full of candy from this table. Eat some candy for dessert and take the rest home for a favor.

A rainbow star piñata is always fun. Take turns swinging at several piñatas filled with candy! Divide the party into teams and have the teams compete to be the first to bust their piñata and retrieve the candy.

NAME THAT CANDY
Give the winner of the game a special prize like Candyland, the game or a Candyland t-shirt.

Candyland favor boxes come complete with a pink heart mirror and brush set, rainbow heart spring, mini star wand, plus a Candyland blowout and sticker sheet. We also love these ideas for favors at a Candyland theme party:

• Rainbow sidewalk chalk
• Candyland, the game - you can get this at your local toy store or Target
• Personalized mint tins - filled with candy
• Personalized camera - to capture all of the fun
  

Have fun! We're sure your Candy land theme party will be SWEET! While you're planning, enjoy some pictures of a Candyland party that we planned at Party411.com.
