    Make bunny bait
    Help the little ones lure the Easter Bunny to your home by making bags of bunny bait. Check out this cute concoction on Etsy or make your own special mix. You can keep your snack mix for yourself or take it to your child’s school to pass out as an early spring treat.

    Try napkin origami
    If you’re hosting Easter brunch or dinner, get the kids involved with setting the table with a little arts and crafts project. Folding cloth napkins into little bunnies is easy but still looks elegant and festive. They can show off their creations to Gramps when he arrives! Our location on Long Island features a large collection of tableware supplies.

    Trim the tree
    We all love decorating the Christmas tree, so why not continue that tradition in the spring? You can buy Easter trees at craft stores or you can make your own with a branch from the backyard. Just hang little Easter eggs and a pretty pastel garland.

    You could turn another totally adorable Christmas tradition (gingerbread houses) into an Easter one. You and the kids can start with a standard gingerbread house kit as your base, then decorate with colorful frosting, chocolate eggs and, of course, plenty of marshmallow Peeps. The end result is some adorable Easter decor!

    Host an Easter game night
    Invite some family friends over for a night of festive fun. You can revamp classic party games for a seasonal celebration—activities like pin the tail on the Easter bunny (purchase it here!), Easter bingo and, if you’re brave, even egg dying. Don’t forget to serve themed treats, too, like carrot cupcakes or nesting chicks.

    Create a countdown
    Counting down the days will get the whole family excited for Easter. Not only does a cute calendar look great on the wall, it’s also a project you can make at home with some help from the kids. You can also treat it like an Advent calendar by filling eggs with small goodies to be opened each day. Or purchase this handmade calendar.

    Make s’mores
    There’s something about the classic combination of graham crackers, melty chocolate and gooey marshmallows that no one can turn down. To make your s’mores spring-themed (and much more Pinterest-worthy), use colorful Peeps instead of regular marshmallows. Learn how to make them here. Tip: You can make s’mores in your microwave, too. No bonfire needed! Head to our locations in Queens for baking and cooking supplies.

    Hold an egg-dying contest
    Encourage your kids to channel their inner creative genius by turning your Easter egg dying into a competition. Offer prizes for categories like “Most Colorful,” “Most Unique,” or “Funniest.” Everyone will have a blast trying to make their eggs the best in show. Use everything from dye to glitter to feathers for crazy creations.

    Throwing a Luau summer party is fun and, here at Party Glitters in Brooklyn, Queens and Long Island, we compiled a few ideas to make a great Luau 2018 party.

    If you plan to use luau party supplies, our suggested party supply list will definitely be helpful in determining the specific products necessary for your upcoming celebration. Along with traditional party supplies like tableware and decorations, you may want to consider purchasing or borrowing the following items:

    Grass skirts

    Beach Balls
    Beach Towels
    Sunscreen

    Luau Party Decorations
    From the moment that guests arrive at your party, they'll know that they've arrived in paradise. Here are some tips on how to make any space look straight out of the tropics:
    Make a sandcastle centerpiece: purchase textured, sand-colored spray paint at any local hardware store. Spray paint shoe boxes and use them to form the main part of the castle. To construct the towers, glue Styrofoam cones to empty coffee cans, then paint. Other details, such as scallops across the top of the castle, can be cut out of Styrofoam and painted.
    Visit a local travel agency and ask for old travel posters of Hawaii, the Caribbean, or other tropical destinations, and hang them throughout the party area.
    Use decorative fringe to give a tropical vibe to tables, doorways, and your deck.
    If you're hosting the party outdoors, use play sand to set up a "beach." You can use a sandbox or, if one isn't available, spread sand on large trash bags for easy cleanup.
    Lay out beach towels for the kids to sit on as they eat or play games.
    Pile seashells and starfish in the corners of the party area and surround them with sand.
    Set up tiki torches along the driveway or sidewalk leading up to the party location.
    Hang string decorations from doorways and the ceiling that feature hula girls and brightly colored flowers.
    Cut large flower shapes out of different colors of construction paper and tape them to the walls and doors.
    Balloons are a must-have at any party! Combine a luau-themed Mylar balloons with four or five solidly colored latex balloons and secure them with balloon weights throughout the party area. Also, tie balloons to the chair where the birthday child will sit.
    Cups shaped like pineapples or coconuts are the perfect way to ensure your tableware reflects the party's theme.
    Play luau party music in the background. Steel drum bands are a good choice.
    Create striking photo ops using wall decorating kits that will bring a piece of paradise into your home.
    Centerpieces with hibiscus flowers will be sure to add a pop of color to any display.
    Personalized party banners are ideal for adding to the ambiance of your event while sharing special sentiments with the celebrant.

    Luau Party Favor Ideas
    Once the festivities come to an end, be sure to thank your guests for coming by sending them off with tropical party favors! From generic summer party surprises to ones that are more specifically hula and luau themed, there are a variety of fun party items to choose from when picking items for your goodie bags.

    Squirt Guns
    Lei Bracelets
