Monster High Party Ideas

Hi!
So as you know, I am now in love with Monster High! I want to show you some things i made like the cafe I made, but I am on vacation now. I thought I would share some ideas I have to make a Monster high birthday party. I saw a vid on how to do this by party city, but I thought that some ideas were okay, but I found it to be a bit... well,  store oriented. Here are some ideas.

  1. Start by sending out invites. Use Leftover MH doll packaging . Cut a shape out of the box, and glue white paper to the back. Write out the details on the paper in pen. Mail them in black envelopes with a pink return address sticker or stamp. 
  2. Once you have gotten all RSVP'S, start ordering favors. If your birthday is around Halloween, you can go to a halloween shop and buy tiny favors.  Monster high favors are avalible at partycity.com. You can also include fake fangs and stickers as well as tiny Lilp balm and nail polishes.
  3. Ask guests to bring a small photo of themselves. At the party, have them make id cards with the photo and cardstock. 
Below is a list of activities you can do that resemble the day at monster high. Use these activities to compile a "Schedule of classes" for the guests to enjoy. You can do them all, or pick and choose.

  • Ferice fashion 101- For this class, you will need 2 dolls, preferably monster high. Break the guests into teams. You will also need the following: old t shirts, tissue paper, glue, duct tape, doll shoes (Monster high, barbie or ever after high). Using only these materials, the guests must create a dress for the doll based on their style. For each doll, print pictures of their different looks as inspiration. Have one guest who wants to judge decide which outfit is better.r origami tutorials from online. Have your friends take a shot at building 3 dimensional figures!
  • Lunch- Serve up some creepateria food! Use a monster high tablecloth and plates as well as plastic trays.. Serve up juice boxes, sandwiches, veggie burgers, pasta with red sauce, chips and salad. 
    • Home Ick- Now comes the cake! In this class, guests can decorate a cupcake or a cookie. Have a contest and see who wins an A from Ms. Kindergrubber, the home ick teacher! Be sure to have icing, frosting, sprinkles, sugars and more.
  • Music class- This takes place in the catacombs! Light a candle on the birthday girl/boy's cupcake, and use tea lights for the other candles (subtract one from the age of the birthday child to find how many tea lights are needed). Turn out the lights. Have the guests sing happy birthday! Have the birhday child blow out the lights. Then, have the ghouls eat their cake in the dark.
  • Fear squad- Have the guests get into groups to invent a fun cheer! Have a contest to see who has ghoul spirit! Be sure to have  cheer pom poms (Size the tutorial from my froggy stuff to fit humans by cutting longer strips or buy some pom poms), tissue paper leaves, and maybe a even meat baster filled with water to add effects!
  • Phyical deaducation- Have the ghouls go outside in the summer to play games like four square! If it is the cold winter, skip this class or find a way to play inside.
  • Study howl- (lightly inspired by party city) Purchase MH themed reading like the monster high books or magazines. Have ghouls atke a break to read these while quitely chatting.
  • Dead languages- Have the ghouls complete the monster high word scramble from doll diaries (http://dolldiaries.com/doll-of-the-day-monster-high-abbey-bominable)/
  • Going home- have the ghouls take home their favors.
  • enjoy!
