Childrens Parties - whats hot for 2012

We all know that to kids, poularity is everything, and who wouldnt want to be a cool on trend parent? so when it comes to throwing your child a party its important to do them proud!
Which begs the question....

Whats hot on the childrens party scene for 2012? 

These themes run from age 1 to teens.



Prince and Princess parties
For colour scheme i'd go with baby blue and baby pink with white but lilacs and lemons can work well too. For props think crowns and tiaras, party bags could contain fairy wands, bubbles, chocolate coins.....

Popstar parties
I'd go with bright bold clours for this theme, maybe green and purple or pink and black. For props toy microphones, karaoke, posters of pop stars like justin bieber, miley cirus, one direction, jls.....
party bags could contain a personally mixed cd from the birthday boy or girl, headphones, sweets and personalised pens or keyrings.

Willy Wonka
Go for a technicoloured dreamworld of bright colours (look no further than the movie for confirmation of this) A candy bar is a must, also maybe a candy floss or popcorn machine. A vpinata would also be really cool.

Cupcakes tea party
Pastel colours and polka dots are a must. Go for elegant cake stands, bunting etc...

Pirates
Black red and white work well for this theme, props could include toy swords and parrots. party bags should include swag like chocolate coins, eye patches & other treasures.

Faries
Pastel colours or fuscias and purples work well with this theme, opt for dreamy clusters like clouds with tulle swags to really give this theme an authentic twist.

Disney
I'd chose one particular charchter rather than going for everything disney and match your colour sceme to that character, so if its buzz lightyear go silvers and purples, minnie mouse go pinks and whites etc...

Football
Black, white and green are a must but why not incorperate your teams kit colour. You could ask all guests to dress up in football attire and for props you can use footballs, tropies etc.... party bags could include mini footballs, toy medals, football stickers etc...

Red Carpet hollywood
This is a bigger budget party, but there are so many amazing props out there it does come off a treat, bling is essential and burgandy and gold work well as colours. party goes should be invited to "dress to impress" so suits, tuxes & evening gowns.

hawaiian
Tropical colours like blues, yellows, greens and pinks work best. Think hula skirts and hawaiian shirts!

rock star
I'd go a bit grunge with this theme and use a lot of black against a shocking bright colour like orange or lime green.

Pamper & Make-over
This is a girlie girls theme so youve got to go with the princess pinks or lilacs. Party bags could include mini makeup items such as lipglosses, lollypops, cute keyrings or costume jewellry.
