The class left with a few of our favorite party favors – Snowman Soup and Frosty the S’moreman Kits! You can get the instructions and free printables here!! Ice your cupcake to look like a snowman, with chocolate chip eyes and mouth and a candy corn nose.
I ordered this cute craft kit from Oriental Trading so that they’d have a little something to take home. In one minute, wrap your classmate in toilet paper and top with a scarf and hat to look like a snowman! Using a snowman paddle (white paper plate with snowman face), try to keep the snow ball (balloon) off the ground for one minute! See how many marshmallows you can successfully throw into a bucket on your friend’s head – in one minute! See how many jingle bells you can dance out of a tissue box in one minute! Here’s more than you ever wanted to know about a first grade holiday party… We had four Minute to Win It stations, a cupcake station and a craft station. There are never a shortage of parent volunteers and the party was no exception. The littles were divided into six groups of four to rotate through the six stations. They absolutely worked up a thirst at this party! A “Minute to Win It – Holiday Style!” sign greeted them at the door and “Melted Snowman” water bottles (with their names on the backs) were ready at their seats. took the class out for thirty minutes while we hung a gazillion glittering snowflakes from the ceiling, decked the tables with festive cloths and set up the stations. I enlisted a great crew to help set up before hand, including Honey and his mama JuJu. The pre-freak out was totally worth it because the classroom was exploding with pure JOY for one last fun-filled super crazy hour before the long holiday break!!! As soon as I got past my “seriously? how am I going to pull off Thanksgiving, two class birthday parties, two regular birthday parties, a week in Disney World, Christmas preparations, a baby shower AND this minute to win it themed hootenanny in the next twenty-eight days” dismay, I popped in on Pinterest and had a plan in no time flat. She, on the other hand, came armed with the seemingly crazy idea to have a Minute to Win It themed party… something I’d never even heard of. At the meeting I had with the PCP’s teacher to discuss holiday party planning back in November, I came armed with an Oriental Trading catalog thoughtfully earmarked with a few fun crafts I hoped to order and call it a day.
