At this point my daughter decided she wanted it to be a "Princess Tea Party" Not having mentioned that in the invitations, this is how we turned a regular tea party into a "princess" tea party. First, I hung large white glittery stars dangling over the entry way of the front door. Then I sprinkled glitter coming up the walkway onto the porch. Next to the door sat a very large (about 3 foot tall) smiling ceramic frog that I happened to have left over from my childhood frog collection. Upon his head was a gold crown. He held a sign that read: "STOP!! You must read this before you enter this kingdom! --- Once upon a time, in a land far away, lived a little girl who longed to be a princess. Day and night she wished for her royal dream to come true. One evening, while walking through an enchanted forest, she came upon a talking frog. "What can I do for you my child?" the frog asked. "I want to be a princess" the little girl replied. "To become a princess you must do two things: First, you must kiss me, Second, you must invite all your friends for tea and they must kiss me also!" exclaimed the frog. So, the little girl planned a beautiful tea party for all her friends. At the party the girl and her friends all kissed the frog and were immediately transformed into princesses. (STOP AND KISS ME NOW FOR THIS TO COME TRUE) afterwards the girls all wondered why the frog did not turn into a handsome prince. "Are you not an enchanted frog?" they asked. "No, my dears, I am just a frog who wanted a kiss," was his reply. "Then how did you turn us into princesses?" they asked. "Oh, exclaimed the frog, that was not magic! Didn't you know? ALL little girls are princesses--- if only they BELIEVE!" --- I wrote this on a large white heavy duty poster with a pink paint pen. As the guests arrived they stopped and read the story and of course kissed the frog. Then as they entered the house my daughter gave them each a "princess" hat and wand and said: "You are now a princess!" The hats were made from shinny party hats with a long piece of tulle coming out of the point on the top. The girls were given stickers to decorate their hats with while the other guest arrived. The girls loved kissing the frog and some of them kissed him again as they left!
