Parents' Sharing Corner Recipe for Fun: A “Snickerdoodle” Birthday Party
Party preparations got underway. And what a surprise! It was simple!
We hung two Snickerdoodle posters along with yellow streamers and the balloons—it was very festive! The parents sat and read the book during the party-- and they loved it, and they thought my idea was amazing. We also requested no gifts at the party and took donations on a
money tree for the Children’s Hospital. (Powerful Pee-Wees
making a BIG difference!!) Lainee Copeland Invitation to Parents Please e-mail us or write us with your ideas and suggestions! Let us know how you are sharing Snickerdoodle with your kids. Let us know what you’d like to see Snickerdoodle do next and how he can be responsive to your kids’ needs. And we especially welcome your kids’ submissions (stories, art), with your permission. |
My two boys love Snickerdoodle! I have a 2-year-old and a
4-year-old. They beg for the Snickerdoodle CD every time we get in
the car. They sing along to all the songs! The 2-year-old asks
for a Snickerdoodle book every night. It should have come as no surprise
when I asked what kind of birthday party they
wanted… SNICKERDOODLE!
I made a big square cake and frosted it with vanilla
icing. Around the edges I put “Nutter Butter” cookies
(peanut car) and I made color copies of Spitfire Jim and Snickerdoodle
from the book and taped them to popsicle sticks and put them on
the cake! I wrote “Happy Birthday” on the cake and
I was done! It took less than 30 minutes to decorate--- my easiest
(and cheapest) cake ever!
