DIY Car’s Birthday Party Theme

I’m not fond of big parties, so we don’t throw birthday parties; instead, we just travel. I decided to celebrate my son’s 4th birthday in school this time. I dislike preparation because I find it stressful but since my son has only 13 classmates it would not be difficult to prepare. Anyway, it is just a simple party, less than an hour celebration. All we need is an invitation, guestbook, giveaways, and of course food.

My son loves “Lightning Mcqueen” so Car was our theme. Three weeks before my son’s birthday I started the preparation. I got this invitation from Toy Kingdom, P60 for 6 pieces. I personally wrote all the details.

I bought picture frame and stamp pad for the guestbook. I added some car’s picture.

I decided not to have loot bags because not all kids eat candies just like my son so I just bought small Pringles as a giveaway.

I used red cartolina, double sided tape, printed car’s theme and glue.

I also bought bottled water for the drinks because soda and chocolate drinks are not allowed in school. I used red and black cartolina, double-sided tape, printed car’s theme, and glue.

I baked vanilla cupcakes and choco-banana cupcake. I used the printed car’s theme for the cupcake topper. Click here for the banana cupcake recipe and here for the vanilla cupcake + vanilla buttercream frosting recipe.,

Jollibee for the food! hehe!
