Are your kids tired of clowns, pinatas, and pin the tail on the donkey? If you are fresh out of party ideas, don't worry, there is always breakfast. Huh? Yes, breakfast. You can have a pancake party! Throwing a pancake party is something different that your child's friends probably haven't had. It is fun and unique and very simple! Keep reading to find out how easy it is to throw a pancake bash.
Start with a theme. You can do anything you want. For example, if you are throwing the party in the winter you can have the kids make snowmen pancakes and have lots of fruits and toppings to make snowmen out of the pancakes. Be creative and think of something unique.
Next, you will need to purchase your ingredients and supplies. Wait until you know how many kids will be coming before you do this so that you have enough but not too much. Make a list and use a recipe to make sure you don't forget anything. You will need basic ingredients such as flour, eggs, and milk, but also make sure you have enough supplies for the kids to use such as spatulas, spoons, bowls, and pans.
Also get your party supplies. You will need tablecloths, cups, plates, napkins, utensils, etc. Make sure they all match and that they all go together with your theme. For example, you could go for a tropical theme and use tropical fruit with your pancakes.
Make sure you have a concrete plan before you start. If you don't have the party planned out and a good schedule in place, the kids might go crazy and make a mess. Set up a station for each task such as measuring, mixing, etc. and then have them each decorate their own.
You can even personalize your pancakes. They can write their names in batter or use icing on the pancakes. they can make different colors and of course personalize it even more with their own toppings. Try to make sure they use foods that will go well together. You don't want them wasting food because they made gross pancakes.
Have fun with this party idea. You might even want to switch from pancakes to French toast or waffles, or include them all! The point is to get them involved. They will have lots of fun and maybe even learn a little about baking. - 15275
