Race Car Theme Birthday Party

This time Kelly, the Quick-and-Easy-Recipes Party Planner brings us the Race Car Party. 

At some point in their lifetimes most little boys and many little girs fall in love with cars, some lilttle boys never outgrow it, but hey.

The cake is home made with  Using a Wilton's Cake Pan.  It was not too hard to make or decorate, the 2 on the hood of the car reflects the age of the birthday child, though you can use the number from his favorite race car or driver.

Race Car Party

Food:

Pizza

Wheel Pasta

Race track Sandwich - Buy or Make 2 Sandwich Rings and arrange them next to each other so they make a figure 8 race track - Stick little toothpick flags around the sandwich if desired.

Cake

Cupcakes - with a candle for each child to blow out.

Decorations:

Black and white checkers and Red, yellow and blue work well, or use the colors of your favorite Nascar drivers car.

Decorate with Racing flags, Car posters, traffic cones - you could even make street signs to hang around the area.

Activities:

Provide a cardboard box for each child big enough to fit around them. Cut out the top and bottom and attach shoulder straps to each side. Give the kids markers, paint, stickers, construction paper and glue and let them decorate their own car.

Once the decorating is done let them race their new car and have ribbons, medals and trophies as prizes.

Favors:

Small die cast cars

Plastic trophies
