March for Babies!

On April 19, 2008, we had the opportunity of spreading more glitter over the Triad!!! My Party Palace Triad was the corporate sponsor the "kids area" of the March for Babies (Forsyth County) walk! We provided a moonbounce, hole in one, ring toss, face painting and crafts!!! Girls were able to decorate a tiara and boys were able to decorate a visor! It was big fun and for a great cause!

The March of Dimes' mission is to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth, and infant mortality. The organization carries out this mission through programs of research, community services, education and advocacy to save babies' lives. All of the kids at the walk loved our booth! Some adults loved it as well! A couple adult "Diva Walkers" made tiaras to walk in!

We are so thankful to have an opportunity to impact our community! At My Party Palace, we party with purpose!!!!!

Wellness Fair!

My Party Palace Triad had the honor of kick starting the local Girl Scout Wellness Fair on Saturday April 5, 2008! Because our number one priority is to empower girls, we could not miss an opportunity to make a difference in the lives of so many young girls! The Wellness Fair featured several booths that all dealt with health and wellness! Each scout had to travel to each booth and participate in the activity at that booth. There was a hula hoop booth, a nail care booth, a nutrition booth, a skin care booth and a safety online booth! Princess Jasmin and I started off the day by leading the group in the Cupid Shuffle and the Mississippi Slide--what fun! Dancing is wonderful exercise---we dance at every party! Pediatric Obesity is being considered an epidemic in the United States! One way to combat obesity is to exercise!

Childhood obesity is a serious medical condition that affects children and adolescents. It occurs when a child is well above the normal weight for his or her age and height. Childhood obesity is particularly troubling because the extra pounds often start kids on the path to health problems that were once confined to adults, such as diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol.
One of the best strategies to combat excess weight in your child is to improve the diet and exercise levels of your entire family. This helps protect the health of your child now and in the future.

Teddy Bear Tea Pawty!

We had soooo much fun! What better way to start the day than with tea with friends! Girls brought their plush buddies from home, enjoyed a tea party breakfast, and designed an outfit for their friend to wear home! Our parties and events are elegant, unique, posh, uplifting and tons of fun! Join us sometime, you will not regret it!

Reading is FUN!

Pinkalicious Princess Party March 16, 2008

We had a blast! All of the girls dressed up in pink costumes, had their nails polished pink, enjoyed the book Pinkalicious, modelled on stage, drank pink lemonade and ate

cupcakes of course!

Given all the fun we had, the girls had no idea that we had a party with a PURPOSE! Reading is very important and reading to children aloud helps to lay a great foundation for educational success!
According to Jim Trelease, author of The New Read-Aloud Handbook, reading aloud to children benefits them in numerous ways. Listed below are only some of the benefits a child receives from being read to:
Reading aloud provides a positive reading role model.
Reading aloud creates a bond between the reader and the child.
Reading aloud improves the child's listening comprehension.
Reading aloud expands the child's attention span.
Reading aloud helps develop the child's language skills.
Reading aloud helps develop critical thinking skills and effective communication skills.
Reading aloud exposes the child to rich vocabulary.
Reading aloud exposes the child to good grammar.
Reading aloud stimulates the child's imagination, creativity and curiosity.
Reading aloud establishes the reading-writing connection.
Reading aloud provides the child with a lot of background knowledge. The more a child is read to now, the more he/she will learn for use in reading later.
Reading aloud nurtures the child's emotional development, raising his/her self esteem.
Reading aloud is FUN, providing the child with the pleasures of reading!

Inspired by Playing!

Dressing up is fun and meaningful! Each week we take the role of "Princess" or "Diva" seriously! Over this past weekend, a mom said to me, "What I like about your place is that it involves dramatic play".

Dramatic and fantasy play involve imagination, creativity and role-play and both have many developmental benefits for children. Researchers have found that play that is imaginative and constructive releases children from the boundaries of actuality, therefore fostering flexibility of ideas. Hence the empowerment we see in the eyes of little ones, middle-sized ones and their Mommies when they recite the Princess or Diva Oath each week at one of our parties or special events!

Imagination is wonderful! Remember the things you could come up with as a child? Remember the potential you could see in the smallest of things? Through play, adults and children can release tension! Studies show that play is a form of emotional release for many children. For years, therapists have utilized play therapy as a medium to reach young children. When involved in play, children can learn to solve problems with creative solutions. Play fosters positive self-esteem!

At My Party Palace Triad, our mission is to empower girls and women through wholesome fun that is uplifting and stress free! Our parties are Dramatic Play to the fullest! They foster imagination, creativity and self-esteem.
