My game-obsessed toddler just turned three! To celebrate, we decided to pay homage to his favorite game, Candy Land, at our most-loved local frozen yogurt place, Yo Mama. I wanted to keep it simple but just add a few tiny touches and some cool tech gifts to make the day extra special.
All his pint-sized friends were sent a Candy Land themed invitation. I designed this with inspiration from the game board and the story of Candy Land included in the box (which Lincoln asks us to read almost every day). This invitation is available in my Etsy shop, Morning Star Designs, as a printable file.
Each Lord and Princess of Candy Land was designated a cupcake by King Lincoln. Our King donned a special crown to celebrate the occasion.
Guests dined at tables with different candy buckets representing the various stops along the way to the Candy Castle, including Gummy Pass, Licorice Lagoon and Lollipop Forest. They were all allowed to snack on the centerpieces and bring some home at the conclusion of the party.
Before filling up their yogurt cups with whatever they wanted, they colored pictures to hang on the special Yo Mama art gallery wall.
Finally, all the mini guests were treated to homemade play dough with special cookie cutters as a parting gift.
Wishing King Lincoln the happiest of third birthdays! May you always find your way to the Candy Castle…
