Finalization Party Ideas...

This might not apply in a rural area, but for my daughter's 3rd birthday and 1st anniversary home, I had a petting zoo brought to my yard and a pony ride. It was such a hit. The kids loved the animals and the older folks loved watching the kids. Some even pet lamb or two. There was something for all of the age groups. It was an over the top party for a truly special occassion. For party hats I bought cowboy hats from Oriental Trading with Flags around the brim. I did the party with a birthday and Americana theme to celebrate 1 year in the US. I had the cake made in the shape of a barn. And the goody bags had a bandanna theme on the. I found bench farm animals and stickers etc. for them from Oriental Trading too. Just another idea that worked well for me.
