Over the few years I have been creating, sharing and blogging things (ideas, crafts and recipes)…I have done several fun ones that together make a rocking kid style fourth of July party. I mixed it all up here and am sharing it again with easy reference to the original posts to get the details. This Fourth of July Party for Kids is great for all ages really.
Taking these pictures of Zoe was so much fun. I can’t believe that YEARS have gone by and she is almost as tall as me. We still have that sparkler container made from a Pringles can. Get the tutorial HERE.
And these cupcakes…for real! They have color on the INSIDES! Find out how I did it HERE.
Coloring is always a plus. This printable is FREE in the blog post that shares it HERE.
Want to make it super simple…use the Patriotic Flower Power printable shown HERE.
I made this adorable patriotic pail forever ago and we still use it for all of the red, white and blue holidays. It has held goodies, silverware, snacks and tickets. Find out how I made it HERE.
Painted Rocks! They are a GREAT craft project to have for kids to make AT a Fourth of July Party for Kids!
Hope these ideas and projects help you create a party that is amazing and wonderful.
