My daughter has a winter birthday, which usually means we have to be inside.  Since we didn't get any snow this year in Va. we decided to have a Snow party.  I went to a school supply store and found a 4ft. penguin and snowman that came with snowballs and snowflakes. The snowman was used for pin the carrot on the snowman and the penguin greeted the children as they walked in the door. I had it laminated and wrote Happy 4th Birthday Amber on it.  Along with the bought snowflakes I made about 50 and covered the with white iridescent glitter and hung them up in the door ways and above the table and the living room. Then I made an igloo using about 100 milk jugs for the kids to play in. I used the bought snowballs and glued them on it as well as a North Pole.  Then we played bowling using penguins I made out of 2 liter bottles, and had a relay game with cotton balls for snowballs, and another relay with beanbags as the egg for the daddy penguin to carry on his feet. The cake was an igloo with penguins and trees made out of sugar cones. Party favors were a snow trail mix of yogurt covered raisins, pretzels peanuts, and vanilla jelly beans, snowdough (homemade white playdough with glitter added), snowflake and snowmen stickers, and finally snowman soup (hot chocolate mix, candy cane, chocolate hugs, and marshmallows) As the children arrived we made snowmen out of ivory snow soap and water, then they decorated them. It was definitely a winter wonderland and loads of fun!!!
