A Day at the Office

My oldest son Daniel is a business man in the making! He loves all things office, and what better way to encourage his interests than throw him a party that matches his taste.

Though not a traditional party theme, I was determined to make it fun and added a playful touch with balloons, paper airplanes and a vintage typewriter for the kids to play with.

Boys and girls ages 3-7 were invited and were given clipboards, paper, pens and pencils as party favors. We played games such as 'trashcan basketball' & 'pop the bubble wrap', and had paper airplane flying contests. All the kids left with smiles on their faces, and I know they had a great time!
