Every girl young and old likes to dress up. The biggest hit you can have is fill a box with outfits from your closet or a local thrift store that your guests can dress up in. You can also have your guests bring their own Barbie and have a Barbie Dress Up Party!

Makeover Madness

Have a couple of adults on hand to help give each child their very own manicure and pedicure. They'll love it.

Telephone

Have all your guests sit in a circle and the leader will whisper something to the person sitting beside her and she will repeat it to the person next to her and so on. The goal is to see if it the same saying when it gets to the last person as it was when it started. Sure to get some laughs.

You're a Star Cake

Bake a cake in a 9 x 13 pan, frost with white frosting. Put gold and silver foil wrapped kisses all around the edge of the cake so it would look like a marquee, and write Happy Birthday in pink.

Chocolate Dipped Strawberries

Purchase large, ripe strawberries from your grocer.
Wash berries in cool water and gently pat them dry.
Slowly melt 6-12 oz. chocolate chips in a pan and carefully dip the berries in the chocolate halfway.
Place the dipped berries on waxed paper to cool.
Arrange them on a serving platter and refrigerate until serving time.
