Fun Activities
Dragon-Foot
Relay
Before the party, cut four claw-foot
shapes from cardboard. Each foot should
measure approximately 12" x 15" in
size. (Birthday Express shipping boxes
work great for this project!) Divide your
guests into two equal lines and give the
first person in each line two feet. These
feet become the only thing they can step
on as they travel from the front of the
line, around a chair, and back to the start.
Begin with the first two players placing
one of their claw-feet on the ground and
stepping on it; then, they place the other
foot on the ground and step on it. They
continue this all the way around the course
and then return to the line. When they
reach the finish line, they hand the two
feet to the next person. The relay continues
until everyone has a turn. The team that
completes the course first wins!
Badges
of Honor
Make your guests feel special
and stimulate their imaginations with this
fun craft project. Each dragon in Dragon
Land wears a unique badge that glows when
he or she overcomes a personal challenge.
Before the party, cut out several badges
for each guest, in a variety of colors,
shapes, and sizes. Provide glue, scissors,
glitter, markers, photos, magazine pictures,
etc., and encourage the kids to express
themselves. During the party, hand out
extra badges as fun favors when playing
games. When sticking the badges on the
children, honor them with special awards,
i.e., for the Biggest Smile, Best Behavior,
Most Infectious Giggle, Best Team-Player,
etc.
Mushroom Hopping
This twist on an
old favorite will bring a smile to every
face! Pair dragons together or let them
choose their own partners. If they choose
partners, suggest that they pick someone
their own size because they will have to
jump over him or her. This game is best
played outdoors since you need lots of
room. Designate start and finish lines,
such as trees or other landmarks. When
you say “GO,” the first partner
crouches on the ground (as the mushroom)
while the other leaps over (as the dragon.)
When the second person has leaped over,
he or she crouches on the ground while
the first person leaps over. Dragons and
mushrooms alternate leaping and crouching
until they have reached the finish line.
To make the game more fun, tell each player
to shout “Dragon Tales” or “Mushroom
Hopping” as they leap over each other.
Continue the fun with a piggyback race,
wheelbarrow race, sack race, or any other
fun relay race.
Singing Springs In Dragon
Land
Singing Springs is full of
music! Put on your child’s favorite Dragon
Tales tunes, sing along, and take a trip
to the land of music. For more fun, organize
a game of musical chairs.
Delectable Treats
Fruit
Slushies
For this refreshing drink, you
will need: one 10 oz. package each
frozen strawberries and frozen raspberries
(both partially thawed);
one 12 oz. can frozen lime juice concentrate;
one 32 oz. bottle of ginger ale (chilled);
one 32 oz. bottle of club soda (chilled);
and one pint vanilla ice cream. Puree fruit
in a blender and combine with the lime
juice concentrate. Chill for at least one
hour. At the party, pour mixture into a
punch bowl, add ginger ale and club soda
and add scoops of vanilla ice cream.
Dragons
in a Blanket
To make these tasty treats,
simply purchase your favorite brand of
hot dogs, cheese, and refrigerator croissants.
Slice hot dogs lengthwise and cut cheese
into strips. Unroll croissants and stuff
them with hot dogs and cheese. Roll croissants
back up and bake as directed, or until
golden
Power Munchies
Give your little
Dragon Tales fans extra energy with this
popular, easy-to-grab snack. Combine your
child’s favorite treats in a large
bowl (m&m® candies, peanuts, licorice
pieces, granola, pretzels, raisins, coconut,
or dried fruit). Let your guests scoop
out their own cupful of munchies to snack
on during the party.
Dragonberry Cupcakes
To make delightful dragonberry cupcakes,
simply make your favorite yellow cupcake
recipe. When all the ingredients have been
combined, add 1 1/2 cups blueberries to
the batter and gently stir them in. Bake
according to recipe or package instructions
and let cool. Enjoy them frosted or plain.
Note: Another alternative that's just as
good is blueberry muffins. Even if your
guests know the berries aren't really dragonberries,
they'll love them all the same!
Decorating Tips
Spread
your tablecover on your party table. If
your child has any theme-related toys,
you can add them to the table for a more
festive display. Cut several one-to-two-foot-long
pieces of curling ribbon. Curl the ribbon
by pulling it between your thumb and
the blade of your scissors. Lay the resulting
curls on your table for added color.
Hang
balloons in bunches for the best effect.
If you choose to fill balloons with helium,
wait until the party day to ensure they
float well! Use balloons to mark the
party spot; hang them on the mailbox, near
the
front door, or tie them to the birthday
child's chair to mark the seat of honor.
Place balloons anywhere that strikes
your fancy. The more the better!Gather
six or
eight streamers and attach them to the
ceiling in the center of the party room
(or over the table). Use a light fixture
over the table, if you have one, as the
center point for the streamers. To create
colorful two-tone streamers, put two
differently colored streamers back-to-back,
twist as
you walk them to the wall, and attach
at shoulder height.
Smile for the Camera!
Be sure to take lots of pictures. You and
your child will want to remember this special
party. A helpful hint: Order extra prints
and send them to the parents afterward.
Remember, it's not necessary to have everyone
in each picture. Focus on small groups
and avoid posing all the photos. Candids
capture the laughter best!
