Selected as Party of the Day on August 23rd!
Sophie's Dr Seuss Party
ByParty Recap
My daughter is a big reader and her favourite books have always been Dr Seuss so what better way to celebrate that love of books than to create a party with her favourite author.
All the food was themed to different Dr Seuss books and the colour scheme was based on the Cat in the Hat colours of Red, White & Blue.
I was so happy at the end of the party when she said to me "That was the best party ever". :)

Best Moment
Seeing Sophie's happiness on the day, seeing all the kids and parents having fun, watching the kids nearly knock over anything in their paths to find the feet and watching the parents have a go on the giant frisbee once the kids were finished.

Funniest Moment
When one of the littlest kids smashed the frisbee into my husbands stomach from 1 metre away by accident.
