Our son adores Woody, Buzz, Jessie & The Gang, so we decided to do a "Toy Story" themed party for his 2nd birthday last month. We wanted to incorporate all of the characters from Toy Story 1 & 2 to make it more fun. We decided to call the venue [our living room and the yard] "Andy's Room" and decorated it with Purple & Lime Balloons [Buzz's colours], Giant Toy Story Buzz Mylar Balloons and Woody Foil balloons. We had Yellow and Blue Western Style Birthday banners [we printed out the lettering in a Western Rodeo Font and made the banners out like flaggy buntings] alongwith yellow and blue streamers everywhere. We put up Toys, Books and the toy story characters [we gifted our son some] everywhere, turning our entire yard and living area into one big "Andy's Room".  The invite [ http://www.starswelove.com/rushil/toystoryinvite_small.jpg ] was fun and casual. Keeping the average age-group in mind [2-3 years], conducting the games was a real challenge but it was a hoot and everyone enjoyed the games. We had Prospector's Gold Hunt in our sandbox, which the kids loved. The gold was actually gold foil coloured chocolate coins and the kids ate their treasure as fast as they dug it up. We had a Intergalactic Goodie Box covered in silver foil and decorated with Buzz stickers. We had "Slinky" springs alongwith shiny blue confetti and foil paper inside. The kids had to reach in and pull out their "Slinkies" .. saving them from being lost in space! [ http://www.starswelove.com/rushil/spacebox.jpg ]. The third game we had was feed Mr. Potato Head. We covered a carton with brown paper and cut a huge hole in the middle, we drew Mr. Potato Head all around the hole which became his mouth. We put a hat on him and wrote movie dialogues like "Hey Ham, I am Picasso!!", "Money Money Money!!" etc. We had some 100 ball pit balls and the kids had to throw them in the hole, feeding Mr Potato Head. This game was a hit as we had a small hole covered with paper at the back of the box to remove the balls thrown in .... the kids kept throwing in the balls and we kept removing thme from the back and refilling the ball basket!

We had loot bags made out to look like the wallpaper in Andy's Room [blue with white clouds] with a cowboy name tag for each bag. We filled the bags with foam gliders, Toy Story colour pencils, spaceship chocolates, neon glowing space straws, a few Toy Story collector's cards with pictures and stories [from ebay], pop-up aliens, little green army men and Toy Story stickers.   The cake was made at home to serve 40-50 people. It was white chocolate and strawberry cake with strawberry buttercream filling and icing. I decorated it with chocolate logs, chocolate pebbles and hand-fashioned green marzipan grass ... to give it a outdoors/dessert look and feel. I plopped Rex the dinosaur and a Woody candle on top. The kids loved it and the adults had 2 helpings each. The kids also had a choice of small cupcakes with strawberry icing and blue and yellow star/moon sprinkles. There was green alien juice with grapes floating in it, Pizza, sandwiches, chips, puffs, salad and punch for the adults ... We watched a bit of the Toy Story movie and had the songs running throughout the party. The kids had a blast and the adults had a fun, relaxing time. Our son was so mesmerised by all the Toy Story stuff, he actually thought that Woody and Buzz he got as gifts were real, he was carrying them around all day and kept going "Woody, Buzz, Woody, Buzz ..."!!!
