Miles From Tomorrowland

Are your children into "Miles From Tomorrowland" like my Charlotte is?  She sings the songs and gets excited when it's on Disney Junior.  When Easy Party Printables asked me to do a Miles-themed party I was thrilled!  It's definitely the new thing!  It's taking over Disney stores and a great "boy" show added to DJ.  You think about it, DJ has Doc McStuffins, Sophia the First...pretty girly.  Although, my daughter does love Miles, so I shouldn't say it's all boy.  But you get the idea!

As I was setting up, Charlotte kept saying, "party for ME?!"  Whoops, sorry, baby girl!  

There are a few different options you can choose from when selecting this theme.  

Package #1 has been shown in this blog post and gives you everything you need for a successful party! Only for $11.50!

Package #2 is perfect for customizing colors and signs! This option starts at $19.95!  I just love these parties that can be in everyone's budget!

Personalized invitations can also be purchased to set the tone of the party and let all the guests know the theme!  These start at $9.95!

To make the gable boxes more "spacey" spray paint them silver 

Thank you cards, menu cards, whatever you'd like them to be!

 Get a little creative with the drinks.  You don't always have to use water bottles.  Get a fun drink for the kids...and one that matches of course!!

Doc McStuffins

For Charlotte's 2nd birthday party, I threw a Doc McStuffins-theme party.  And it was a success!  

The key to any low-budget party is FIRST, look around your house and see if there are any props you can use.  Everything I used for this party was found in my house.  I may have had to take things out of containers and off of book shelves, but I didn't spend any money!! 

The thing I did spend money on was the party package found on Esty {here}, invites from Etsy {here}, food, goodie bags from Hobby Lobby {here}, doctor kits from the Dollar Tree {here}, and toys found at Dollar Tree and the dollar spot at Target.  

Etsy has become my best friend.  There is everything you need!  From home decor to party supplies. I have "favorited" so many things!

DECOR

GIFT SHOP

Going alone with the "doctor" theme, I thought a gift shop would be great to fill the goodie bags.  It was a highlight.  The kids were so excited when they went one-by-one to fill their "doctor bag."  This was by far MY favorite part of the party as well.

These suitcases were from Land of Nod {here} are on display in Charlotte's Room.  

I needed one more container so I went through all my shopping bags and boxes and found a Victoria's Secret box and flipped it over.  Genius!  The bottom part of the box is holding the doctor kits in the "operating room."

Put a card inside each "doctor bag" saying thank you for coming.  Don't worry, I also sent thank you cards!

  

OPERATING ROOM

There is nothing worse than going to a children's party with nothing for the children to do!  I brought down Charlotte's doll bunk bed, a stuffed animals/dolls, and placed the doctor kits from Dollar Tree for the kids to play with.  I also bought the Doc McStuffins table off Craigslist for $20!!  It sells for $80 at Toys R Us {here}.   It was brand new and had all the accessories.  Gotta love secondhand items!  I bought it a few months ago with the thought of selling it after the party but Charlotte LOVES it.  She would be devastated if I got rid of it!

FOOD TABLE

To keep with the breakfast theme, I did a coffee cake instead of real cake.  We did the real cake and ice cream on her actual birthday.  

MISC

Welcome gift (I made that up; but I handed these to each kid when they came): Made stethoscopes from headbands, ribbon and felt.  Super easy and so cute!

Prizes: puzzle to color that I purchased at Target after Easter sale for $2.50 and a jump rope I purchased at Dollar Tree (both Doc McStuffins)

Post the band-aid on the boo boo game found at Party City {here}

Turned my computer desk into the gift table

It was such a fun party!  I'm glad I started planning it about three months in advance.  I was able to work a little bit at a time, spread the budget over a good amount of time, and get it exactly the way I had envisioned it.  This party package was created Glitter Ink Designs and can be purchased on Etsy {here}.
