FROG BIRTHDAY PARTY IDEAS FOR FROG DECORATIONS

Good frog colors are green and white or green and yellow, but you can certainly expand to other colors too, as long as you keep your frog color center stage. Here are some frog birthday party ideas for decorations to consider.

• Tape green lily pads cut out of card stock to the cement walkway.

• Create or buy a personalized birthday banner and hang it on one of the party walls.

• Liven up your walls with a few frog posters.

• Cover the dining room table with a frog themed table covering and sprinkle it with frog confetti.

• Use a pull-string frog pinata or a large stuffed frog as a centerpiece. Attach a bouquet of balloons to the frog for added interest.

• To add a little frog fun to the ceiling, download and cut out several frog shapes, attach each one to a piece of fishing line and hang it off of the ceiling.

• Tie a balloon to each of the kids' chairs.

• Twist streamers around window and door frames.

• Hang twisted streamers from the corners to the center of the ceiling.

• Make some frog garland out of construction paper and curling ribbon. Glue or staple the frogs to the ribbon and hang it around the ceiling edge, across the tops of window frames, mantels, shelves, etc.

• Hang streamers in the doorways for little ones to walk through.

• Create bouquets of Mylar and helium balloons in party colors or frog prints and place them around the room.

• Beg, borrow and "steal" frog toys. Use them to accent your party room and keep the theme alive.
