Party Planners I need Tea Party Ideas....
So I've decided to have a tea party for Miranda at a local tea house. It's much more affordable than having the people come to the house and do it.
They set up high tea and do all the food like tea sandwiches, scones, etc.
I need cake ideas. I'll probably have one made.
I was trying to think of something fun for them to do at the table while they wait for their tea and snacks. An easy craft? A game?
Favor ideas?
Any great tea party invites?
Thanks!

Re: Party Planner I need Tea Party Ideas....
Can you buy like these straw hats and then feathers, ribbon, etc and have the girls make their own tea party hat, which can also double as their favor?http://www.orientaltrading.com/ui/browse/processRequest.do?demandPrefix=12&sku=15/372&prodCatId=388703&mode=Browsing&erec=13&Ntx=mode%2bmatchallpartial&sp=true&Ntk=all&requestURI=processProductsCatalog&tabId=1&N=388703&sd=Sun+Hats+With+Solid+Band

Re: Party Planner I need Tea Party Ideas....
OMG...white gloves, feather boas, and big straw hats with flowers.
they can "dress up" when they get there.
maybe have a "make up" station where they apply rouge 
of course, if there are boys at this party they'd be SOOL

Re: Party Planners I need Tea Party Ideas....
For 5 year olds, I would do dress up team party-with big hats, feather boas, gloves, jewlery.
That can be their activity when they first get there, dressing up.
Also, look up bridal shower tea parties.
Beaucoup has these:
Maybe paint them as a craft?

I like these cups and saucers too, you can have them paint them as a craft:
