Birthday party planning information:
Spread birthday cheer with miles of smiles.
Invitations: Cut circles from yellow construction paper and draw on smiley faces.
Decorations: Tie shiny curling ribbons to helium-filled yellow balloons. Use black marker to (gently!) draw a smile on the balloon, and let them rise to the ceiling. Twist black and yellow streamers together and hang from ceiling.
Food: Smile Sandwiches - Make cheese sandwiches with white bread. Using a cookie cutter, cut the bread into a circle. Add a smile using sliced olives for eyes and vegetables (red pepers, cucumbers, carrot strips) for mouths.
Cake: Frost a 9" layer cake with bright yellow frosting. Use black licorice string or black decorating gel to form a smiling face.
