Scooby Doo Party SuppliesBut you are not limited to only those items that you can buy. Many people augment kits or supplies with ideas of their own. Basic Scooby Doo kits will come with invitations, thank you postcards, dinner plates, cups, forks, spoons, napkins and a tablecloth. They will also include balloons, curling ribbon, and crepe paper rolls. This kind of kit will cost about $25. And you can get add-ons for the kit, that include more invitations, thank you postcards, dinner plates, cups, forks, spoons and napkins, if your party will be for more kids than the original kit provides for. These add-ons are around $15. Beyond the basic kit, there are other options as well, which include more items and cost more. For example a deluxe kit will include everything in the basic kit, plus more balloons, crepe paper and other items. This kit will cost about $40. Larger kits, will include all the above plus party favors. These will cost around $75. But it doesn’t stop there. You can also get kits that include wall decorations, CDs, cardboard cutouts, games, necklaces and other “jewelry,” a personalized birthday banner, and so on. These can range from $150 to $300 in cost. But while these kits are available, you can also add your own touches. Adding your own touches is often a good way to ensure a special event turns into a special memory for everyone involved. The only limit to finding ways to include the shark theme in all aspects of the party is your own imagination. A good place to start is to include the kid in the planning of the party (unless it’s a surprise). Kids will often have great ideas – some practical and others not so much – but it will get them excited and thinking about how to make it a great event. Following a list of party considerations and ideas for integrating Scooby Doo into the theme of the party. Start with the list of invitees, which will help you determine your overall budget and thus how much you can allocate to buy the supplies that will have a connection to the shark theme. Once you have the list, it’s time to think about creating the invitations. Invitations can be made out of Scooby Doo photos, or drawings of Scooby Doo. Whether you make your own invitation cards or buy some from the store, they will need to include certain details. These details should include the occasion of the party, the date, and time, and what if any instructions you wish to provide about gift giving. You will also want to provide RSVP information. Or you can take photographs of sharks and hand write the details of the party on to the photograph, before folding it and putting it in an envelope for mailing. Whatever choice you make, the invitations should let kids know through what the party will be like and should start to get them excited about attending. Photos have other purpose for the party as well. They can be used to decorate the space where the party is being held, as placeholders for a table, as napkin rings and in a number of other ways as well. Next , you want to think about activities for the party that relate to the theme. Scooby Doo games are available for purchase for as little as about $6. Once you have the place for the party, you want to think about how to decorate the space for the party. Again, photographs are very useful in bringing the theme into a room in the house, if that’s where the party is being held. If you plan an outdoor party, there are specially made balloon and streamers with Scooby Doo themes that can be used to help people get in the spirit. If you plan an indoor party, consider hanging bright colored sheets around the room to evoke the bright colors of the game. All of the items mentioned in the kits are available for individual purchase, and that can come in handy when it comes to decorating the space. You can also think about decorating the space to look like a haunted mansion, and hang ghosts made out of sheets, as well as other scary characters as well. Also, be sure to include the other kids from the cartoon, and maybe even the van they travel in. At the party itself, think about how to integrate the theme in to all the various parts of a typical party. Some of the things to think about are plates, cups, silverware, table cloths. All of these items can be purchased with Scooby Doo related themes on them. Cakes can always be made to represent the theme as well. Your local cake maker can give you ideas, but Scooby Doo cakes can be made for the party. Scooby Doo cake toppers are also available for purchase. There are also Scooby Doo candies that can be put on top of a cake or on cupcakes. There is a wide range of Scooby Doo treats (including Scooby Treats) available for purchase. After lunch, think about hanging a Scooby Doo piñata. Party favors are widely available with the Scooby Doo theme. There are Scooby Doo watches, which are very colorful. And Scooby Doo key chains, as well as tshirts and a wide variety of other options as well that are suitable to send home with attendees as a memento of the party. And don’t forget that after the party is over and the guests have gone home, the fun can continue. The ritual of filling out the thank cards is an important one for kids. Scooby Doo thank you cards available as part of the kits or as separate items. Either way, keeping the theme alive in the cards is a good way to extend the fun as kids write their personalized thank yous to the attendees for sharing the fun and for any gift they might have bought. |
