a blue’s clues scavenger hunt

Ain’t no party like a blue’s clues party (for a five year old)!!  And i mean that, I think there ain’t no blues clues party for any five year olds, BUT as I mentioned in the earlier post regarding Molly’s 5th birthday party, she has had a blue’s clues theme in mind for quite some time!  In an effort to incorporate the theme we stuck with lots of blue and a scavenger hunt. 

 

We are lucky enough to live very close to my parents who have the perfect birthday party spot in their backyard.

To keep the scavenger hunt age appropriate, we used three small chalkboards and put blue paw prints on them.  These chalkboards were hung throughout the woods along paths so it would be easy to see. 

  

pops path – my dad (pops) has trails marked at his house, all named for grandchildren and himself of course ;)

 

 

The kids travelled by hay ride and kept an eye out for a “clue” (a paw print).  When they spotted one, they would jump out and gather as many gold, glittery nature items as they could find.

 

Then they would hop back on the trailer and look for another clue until they found all 3.

  

 

 

 

favors: cake pops

 

it’s not a party without a pinata!

 

The weather was fabulous (for early February!) so we picnicked and played

and ate blue cake

 

it was a pretty perfect day :)

With Valentine's Day right around the corner, I couldn't help but dream up a little treat that would surely make any girl smile.

in recent news…

Molly turned 5!  (on Tuesday) and we are celebrating this sweet girl some more this weekend.  Life has been crazy so I still have so much to do for her party but thought I would show you pictures what we have in store (next week, party pictures!)

First – a little about this precious 5 year old.

She is super sweet, is kind to everyone, is really quiet but has a contagious laugh.  She is sensitive, loving, and our sweet sweet molly.  And as always – i can’t believe she is another year older.  Molly has been planning her blue’s clues birthday party for 6 months now – I believe it was mid summer when she was hanging out with Arre and I received numerous emails with pictures attached related to her blue’s clues party (from arre, chosen by molly).  The only trick – nowhere sells blues clues items, do they even MAKE new shows anymore?!  I don’t think so. So we are going with a blue theme along with a paw print here and there along with a scavenger hunt, should be fun!
