Princess and the Frog Party Theme

Colour Theme

• Have a pink and green colour theme to match the invitations and complement the overall theme.
• Buy matching pink plastic party supplies and green plastic party supplies and alternate them as place settings. The best thing about these is that you can throw them away after the party which reduces the clean up.

Invitations

• Set the theme of the party with our princess and the frog themed invitation templates.
• You could use a princess invitation for the girls, and a frog invitation for the boys.

Decorations

• Download, cut out and display our free printable princess decorations and free printable frog decorations. Place them around the party area to add to the atmosphere. Alternatively, print and laminate them and use them as place mats.
• Download our princess and the frog placecards to match the party invitations and theme.
• Decorate the chairs so they look like ‘thrones’.
• Have pink and green balloons and streamers around the room/venue.

• Make a cardboard castle table centrepiece.
• Put fairy lights around the room/venue.
• Buy some princess themed party balloons and put them around the room.

Activities

• Have a craft table where the kids can make princess crowns and frog masks. Provide colouring pencils, textas, glitter and sequins and let the kids decorate them. Download our free printable princess crown and our free printable frog mask. You can even have a competition with a prize for the best crown or mask.
• Provide a box full of princess and the frog themed dress ups and host a fashion parade.
• Have an adult dress up as a princess and tell a fairytale.
• Play a princess and the frog themed pass the parcel game where the layers of the parcel are filled with glitter and sparkles, costume jewellery, freddo frogs and frog  or princess themed stickers or stationary.
• Make themed cookies using princess cookie cutters, a crown cookie cutter or a frog cookie cutter, then let the kids decorate them with coloured icing, mini m&ms, and silver cachous.

Games

• Play ‘Pin the Crown on the Princess’. If you don’t want to purchase the pre-made game, instead print an A3 picture of a princess or buy a Disney princess poster and also print pictures of crowns. Whoever pins (or blu-tacks) the crown closest to the top of the princess’ head wins.
• Play musical statues: when the music stops the kids have to freeze in a position that looks like a crouching frog, or princess blowing a kiss.
• Have leap frog races.
• Play ‘Kiss the frog’. Either purchase the game, or make your own. A fun option is put red lipstick on the kids’ lips, blind fold them, spin them around and then get them to kiss a large picture of a frog. Whoever kisses closest to the frog’s mouth wins. If you want to avoid using lipstick, print some lips and play ‘pin the lips on the frog’.
• Play ‘Musical Lily pads’. Print and cut out several copies of a lily pad picture and stick them on the floor or on the seats of chairs. The game follows the same rules as musical chairs, however when the music stops the kids need to stand or sit on a lily pad rather than a chair.

Food

• Make Frog in the Pond jellies
• Make pink strawberry milk shakes and green lime milkshakes and finish them off with princess wand shaped ice straws.
• Buy jelly lollies that look like red lips, or scatter some red lips lollipops over the table.
• Make themed sandwiches by cutting them into shapes using princess cookie cutters, a crown cookie cutter or a frog cookie cutter.
• Have Hershey chocolate kisses as a treat.
• Add pink or green food colouring to ordinary foods (e.g. macaroni and cheese, dip).

Cake

• Buy some cute princess cupcake toppers and princess cupcake wrappers and make a fun cupcake display using a princess cupcake display stand. Alternatively, if you don’t want to buy cupcake toppers, just glue small printed princess clipart images onto toothpicks and stick them into the top of the cupcakes.
• Buy some fun frog cupcake toppers and add them to the top of any cupcakes. The easiest solution is to purchase a frog cupcake kit which comes with everything you need.
• Make cupcakes that look like frog faces. You can get ideas by searching ‘frog cupcakes’ on the internet.
• Make a lily pad cake. Use a round cake tin and cut out a slice to make it look like a lily pad. Again, search for ‘lily pad cake’ on the internet to get some ideas.
• Make (or buy) a princess castle cake. You can buy a princess cake tin to make this easy.
• Make a fun crown shaped cake.
• Make (or buy) a frog shaped cake. You can also buy a frog cake tin to give you the basic frog shape, so all you have to do is decorate with green icing and some lollies for the eyes.
• Make an ordinary cake but add pink or green food colouring to the cake mixture before baking, as well as to the icing.

Take home party favours/party bags

• Buy some princess themed party bags and fill with any lollies you want, or perhaps bubbles or princess wands.
• Alternatively, glue small printed princess and frog clipart images onto brown paper bags and use them as party bags.
• Fill a small jar (e.g. baby food jar) with Hershey kisses. You could spray paint the jars silver, pink or green and glue a small printed princess and frog clipart images on the jar. Finish it off with some matching ribbon.
