The year Disney’s Alladin is many little girl’s favorite movie. Princess Jasmine is so poised and beautiful with her long black hair. She is not only beautiful, but very smart and sometimes headstrong. Many girls can identify with this 16 year old girl’s tenacity and charm. Not to mention her beautiful princess outfits and Alladin’s magic.
When we think of princess parties, we automatically think of the main 3 Disney princesses: Cinderella, Snow White, and Belle. If you want to be a little different and throw a unique party, try throwing a Jasmine or Alladin party! If you are inviting only girls you could focus on Jasmine. If boys are invited too, Alladin would be a great idea.
There are a lot of fun things you can do at a birthday party like this. When you send out your invitations, you could mention that each participant should wear a Jasmine costume. There are many options out there at the Disney store and other online retailers sell them as well. Little Adventures has a great Arabian Princess costume that is made of machine washable purple fabric with gold accents. It is great if you are looking for a modest costume that doesn’t show the midriff of your young child or toddler. If your budget is not an issue, you could supply each child with a costume or doll dress to bring to the party. Little Adventures costumes also come in 4 sizes from 18 months all the way up to girls size 10 to fit any little girl who would like to attend the party.
On the day of the party, you could have your house decorated like an Arabian palace. Balloons and streamers in pink or purple are always a welcome addition. The Disney Store and Oriental trading company are great places to get ideas or party paraphernalia for your little girl.
At the party, you could do a game with a Genie in a bottle where birthday guests rub the bottle and are asked a question. If they get a question right, they are on their way to “freeing the Genie” and getting a prize.
In the movie Alladin, there was lots of magic and intrigue going on. If you wish, you could have a magic carpet at the party that participants could sit on and get a ride (from Dad or Grandpa) around the house. They could tell the person pulling the carpet where they want to go, and by magic, they would arrive in their desired location.
Last, but not least, you could do a simple activity like a scavenger hunt to find certain objects around the house that relate to Alladin or Jasmine. For example, you could hide a monkey (Abu) and give a clue about bananas and where they are kept in the house. You could hide other objects like a king’s crown, a genie lamp, a princess crown, gold coins, and a princess outfit. You could have enough for each guest to take home hidden at each spot and that would be their party favor to take home.
Serve cake and ice cream and voila! An instant and fun birthday party that kids will love and you will too because these ideas are simple, easy, and can be carried out on a budget, or scale it up and spend as much as you want on getting fancy dresses and party favors for your child and her friends.
