______Once
a month it is fun to have a birthday party to celebrate everyone’s
birthday at the same time. We plan it at least one month ahead of time.
Each lady who has a birthday in January gets together and plans the
theme for their table, decorations and what food will be served at their
table. Each month has a different theme. They also provide some form
of entertainment for the whole group. Each table usually has a birthday
cake, or you might want to have just one large decorated cake for everyone.
If your assembly is smaller, you might want to group two or three months
together.
Some of the following themes are fun to use:
- Children’s birthday party – party hats, blow horns,
favors, etc.
Strawberry Shortcake or other children’s décor can be
used.
Pin the tail on the donkey game provides fun entertainment.
(Even adults enjoy this!)
- Mexican theme – Sombreros, Mexican blankets and shawls, and
Of course, Mexican food. A piñata is fun for everyone. A song
in Spanish provides the entertainment.
- Picnic Style Party – red gingham tablecloth and napkins with
picnic baskets adding to the décor. Watermelon is a must along
with hot dogs and chips!
___The ideas are endless. When you turn
it over to your ladies, their creative juices will flow! If you so desire,
you may end the evening with a short devotional on “A Merry Heart.”
