tea party at school

This is a back-dated post.  Ashley’s school had a Tea Party last Friday to celebrate the end of the First Term (or is it the 2nd term?).  I wanted to prepare something for the class and came up with this simple party pack.

party1

I got some these colourful tapes from Mr. DIY store.

party2

I also bought these from Daiso ~~ RM5 for 3.

party3

I filled the small plastic bags with marshmallows and seal them with the tapes above

party4

I bought some paper cups to be used as little pails.  Punched 2 holes at the sides and tied a piece of twine as holder.  I jazzed up the cups by pasting the colourful tape around them.

Here are my simple party packs for the Tea Party.  I put a packet of marshmallows and a strawberry wafer in a cup for each kid.  I enjoyed doing these very much.  I wish there are more parties or birthday celebrations so I can crack my brain and think of something 🙂
