Pineapple party foods are fun to look at and to eat. Slice a pineapple in half and hollow it out, then fill it with tuna salad or chicken salad or even just some veggie dip. Fruit kabobs make great tropical luau foods – line up grapes, chunks of watermelon, cantaloupe, berries, mandarin orange slices, bananas, pineapple, apple chunks and pear wedges, then display them by poking the bamboo skewers into a pineapple Use a fishbowl to serve goldfish crackers and call them “koi” Macadamia nuts are tasty, add them to trail mix or party mix Place a large bowl inside of a beachcomber hat, to decorate the table.
Make fairy party decorations. You can make paper flower streamers and it’s so easy. Picture a giant Hawaiian lei, strung up from the ceiling, trailing down chairs, they’re beautiful. These worked well for our Tinker bell party, but would also do well with a Hawaiian Luau, or a tropical party, a Secret Garden party, even a Barbie or Dora the Explorer party. Cut several 6 inch circles from a stack of colorful tissue paper. Pinch together the center of the circle, and staple. Then, snip into the “petals” about 1/2-1 inch deep and then “wrinkle” the petals. That’s all there is to it. To string them up, thread a needle with fishing line and “sew” them together, use a knot at the bast of each flower 9wrapped around the staple) for stability. They can be close together or far apart. I liked mine with about 10 inches between the flowers because I hung them with white Christmas lights and green ivy. I also added ribbon to the ends of them. The gola was a wild and messy look that’s part cartoon magic and part nature.
STEP ONE- For example- if it was a Hawaiian Luau, I’d make a lit of things like “hula, luau, pig, sand, waves, beach, island, pineapple, fruit, lei and things like that Then I’d answer the 5 w’s Lindsay’s birthday party in the big picnic area at the park saturday at 2pm Then I’d start to look for rhymes Lindsey- is king of like Island-y Aloha. I, Lindsey and feeling Islandy, We’ll meet at 2pm and roast a pig Come at two And we’ll have some good times Anyway- they do not have to be perfect. The goofier the better. It gets the point across.
