INVITATIONS: Pop on over! Inflate a balloon but don't tie it off. Inscript your invitation directly on it, then deflate it. Or, insert your invitation inside. Then pop it, I mean drop it in an envelope. DECORATIONS: Balloons of course and lots of them! Drop them loose on the floor and/or helium columns at thresholds and or in the corners. Archways are really nice if you have the space. Balloons anchored to the mailbox and other turning points make the best landmarks. I have seen paper ware with balloons on it at the dollar store. Perhaps your paper ware in all the colors. Cups one color and plates another. Freeze some water balloons and put them in or around the punch bowl. They can also be placed around the fruit and veggy tray to keep things cool. Just like your party is going to be. Cool! REFRESHMENTS: The Cake- First of all, balloons are not food. Inform the children there is no such thing as balloon gum or cake or pie. But if you want a terrific idea for a cake to eat, try this; Bake a sheet cake. Place several little round snack cakes on top and frost each one in a variety of colors. Tie the "balloons" together with licorice strings. To minimize your time and the mess of cake serving, try baking the batter in flat bottom wafer cones. Don't fill up too high. BEVERAGES: Serve pop! FOODS: Use any of the following for the balloons; sliced bananas,sliced oranges,cucumbers, or round crackers. Use cheese spread in a can for the string. Wiener People- Slit hot dogs as shown. When the hot dog is boiled, the slits open up to form arms and legs. Add faces using cheese or mustard. ACTIVITIES TO CHOOSE FROM WITH MISS PRISS: Magic Show- Mystery, magic, silliness and fun. Theme oriented with specific tricks that use balloons. Lots of group participation, featuring the special birthday boy or girl. Approx.20-60 min. long. Of course,sculptured balloon-art toys are the choice activity. Children and adults alike enjoy watching and wondering "How in the world did she do that?" Many many to choose from. Storytelling- Miss Priss has two great stories. "Where Do Balloons Go?" An uplifting Mystery. By Jamie Lee Curtis. Another story By Landoll, INC. called "Circus Big Top". Within the whole facepainting kit there is facepainting, nail polish, make-up and/or tattoos for activities as time will permit. Games- There aren't any limits to which or how many games we can play. Just remember your time. Adult assistance is requested, as sometimes, two games are played at the same time. Some prizes included. The only game that is extra charge it the "mini-me" pinata. BALLOON PARTY GAMES WITH MISS PRISS: It looks just like Miss Priss! We don't beat the heck out of this pinata! Instead, each player is given a cord attached to the pinata. Only one of the cords will release the trap door, thus, releasing all of the candy and prizes. The other cords all fall away. This pinata comes ready filled for $15.00. (Reusable to Miss Priss.) Pass the Balloon- The object is to pass a tennis ball sized balloon tucked under the chin from player-player. The first group to pass along-through the whole line WINS! No hands allowed! Balloon Balance- With a plastic tumbler, balance a balloon atop all the way to the finish line. The first group or person to make it to the finish line WINS! Round two use a fly swatter, three use a party plate. Knock-Kneed Relay- Each player puts a balloon between his knees and races to the finish line. The first player or group to get all the way to the end WINS! Round two is try jumping like a kangaroo all the way to the finish line. Balloon Sandwich- Two backs are better than one! Players pair off. Sandwich a balloon in between their backs. The object is for each pair to be the first one to the finish line. No hands allowed! EXTRA ACTIVITIES TO MAKE OR DO: Storytelling- This is a game to play while you are having refreshments. One child will start the game by saying "I'm going on a balloon trip and I'm going to take my friend along." The next player must repeat what the first person said and add something, and so on around the table. If someone forgets or can't think of something to add he/she is out of the game. The last person left in the game WINS! Launch Balloons- (Illegal in some states.) At the end of the party, have the birthday child release as many helium balloons as they are old. Involve the guests by having them write a little wish-note, attaching it to the strings of the balloons. Then set them free! EXTRA GAME IDEAS TO PLAY: Balloon Friend Blend- This is a nice party opener to get everyone acquainted. Individually, write the names of half your party guests on a piece of paper. Insert each name inside of a balloon. Blow up and tie off. Throw all of the balloons up into the air and have the other half of the guests without their names inside, catch a balloon and pop it. They are to read the name they have discovered and search out that person to introduce themselves. After a few moments of chatting, the person that discovered their new "balloon friend" must now introduce their new friend to another person at the party. Continue until everyone has met and become acquainted. Pray and Tell- Write some questions down on strips of paper. Perhaps questions about the guest of honor like "what is their favorite color?" Or, "what is their middle name?" Place each questions inside an inflated balloon. Each balloon then goes into bag ???". Each player takes a turn to pop the balloon and answer the question. If the answer is incorrect, they shall reach into the other bag "OH NO!" and remove a balloon where a note will be inside. Pop the balloon to reveal the command "cluck like a chicken", or "make a funny face." They have the option to complete the task or sit it out and cheer the rest of the players on. When all the balloons are gone the game is over. Balloon Test- Write challenges on strips of paper and insert them into inflated balloons. Challenges such as; "walk like a monkey" or "stand on your head." Toss all the balloons onto the party floor and have the children try to pop them. When you hear a "pop", everyone must stop the game and the person that popped the balloon must perform the command. This is a good time to pass out the party favors as prizes for playing and performing. Hero Game- Supplies: inflated balloon, bath towel and a bucket. Pretend that an inflated balloon is an injured victim and you and your partner are the emergency rescue squad. Each of you take an end of the towel (stretcher) holding it taught and hurry the patient (balloon) on the towel (stretcher) to the hospital (bucket). Remember your not allowed to touch or drop your patient! This may be played in pairs or teams. The first to get to the hospital (bucket) WINS! Score a Goal- Each player recieves a long balloon to act as a "bat". The object of the game is to see how many round balloons the player can drive into his box at the finish line. Ther person with the most balloons in the box WINS! Balloon Sweep- Divide the children into teams. May also be played individually. The children are to run a relay using a broom to sweep a balloon along to the end of the finishing line. Round two; substitute the broom with chopsticks.

Catch the Balloon- Arrange the players in a circle on the floor and have them number off. Put the highest number in the center to act as "it". He should hold a balloon and suddenly drop it as he calls out a number. The holder of that number then should try to catch the balloon before it hits the floor. If he succeeds, "it" tries another number. If he fails, the number becomes "it". Alien Planet- All the players are given a balloon to blow up and a felt tip marker. The object of the game is to see who can draw the most little aliens on the balloon planet in a certain amount of time given.

First to have a clean balloon WINS! WATER BALLOON GAMES: Pop the Piranha- Inflate and tie off balloons. Use permanent markers to draw fish on them. Toss the balloons into the pool, one for each person. On the word " Go" have the guests jump into the poop. Oops! I mean pool and try to capture and destroy the slippery, wet, man-eating piranha fish. First person to succeed WINS! Water Balloon Toss- Fill up 4 inch balloons with water. Stand close together in a circle passing the balloon around. Gradually let the circle get bigger and bigger until finally someone "Oops" drops the balloon and "splat!"
