Birthday Party Photo Booth!

We recently celebrated Ora’s second birthday with a “lollipop” themed party (she was given a lollipop on Halloween – her very first candy- and has been obsessed ever since!).
We wanted to keep it simple with a few neighborhood friends, some face painting, and lots of food on sticks! We bought a bunch of lollipop sticks from a kitchen supply store and served all of our appetizers lollipop style.

What’s better than cake for a lollipop party? A cake pop!

But what proved to be the most fun for this group of kiddos was our DIY photo booth! We set out two boxes of random dress up clothes, pinned a lollipop/candy piece of fabric to the wall and had my 11-year-old niece take some shots with her Fujifilm Instax Mini 8 Instant Film Camera. The photos made a super fun keepsake for the kids to take home.

One of the activities at the party was making lollipops out of play dough and sticks. We extended this activity by offering the kids goodie bags filled with play dough, sticks, and a lollipop for good measure.
