It’s official, I am now the mother of a three year old again. Today is JSL’s third birthday and going to be an action packed day and weekend with family and friends. Yesterday, I blogged about the past year of memories with my little fellow – Goodbye to my last two year old.
This year, JSL is quite into Winnie the Pooh. My Wordless Wednesday this week, All things Winnie The Pooh, show cased all of the items that we have been trying to track down. Believe it or not, getting Winnie the Pooh toys/clothing/decorations is not the easiest thing in our area. Had he picked Toy Story it would have been a lot easier since Toy Story 3 is all over the place for the release of the movie this summer.
This made me think about all of the different themes we have had for past birthdays with the kids. Here they are:
- 1st NHL – Bear in the Big Blue House
- 2nd NHL – Finding Nemo
- 3rd NHL – Madagascar
- 4th NHL – Curious George
- 5th NHL – Dinosaurs
- 6th NHL – Cars
- 1st JSL – Sesame Street
- 2nd JSL – We were at Disney World
So my questions for you this week:
What was your favorite birthday party theme from when you were a child? Now be a kid again, what theme would you like for your next birthday?

I don’t think I ever had a themed birthday party, but my fav place to have a party as a kid was at our local skating rink. :) I loved that place.
If I could have any kind of party I would have a masquerade ball where everyone dressed up just like they used to do! That would be so much fun!
have a great weekend!

I didn’t have themed birthday parties, I’m a twin and my twin is a boy so it was easier to just have a regular party.
I don’t know what I’d choose if I could have a themed one now.

My favorite would be a dress-up birthday. Everyone came in a costume. Simple, silly and fun.

I never had a theme party when I was a kid.
If I was a kid again I don’t know what theme I would like. lol, it is hard to think like a kid! Maybe a Disney theme like Cinderella or one of the other movies.

I think I had a Care Bear themed party once. I seem to remember my younger sister’s party themes better.
If I had a themed birthday party now… Hmmm I guess something from the Office maybe.

People really didn’t do themes when I was a child. However, I once did a scavenger hunt at the mall for my daughter and it was a huge hit!
Have a great day!

Happy b-day to your cutie pie! I can’t think of a theme either. But my favorite party was my friends and I went to the movies, then we went to an indoor gym to play games, then we had a sleepover.
If I was a kid now I’d like maybe Hannah Montana or Wizards of Waverly Place theme.
Didn’t have one.

My favorite theme from when I was a kid, was when we saw a Halloween show (some small local theater group) and then went back to my house for witch cake that my mom made and decorated. (At least that’s the one I remember right now.)
Happy Birthday to your son. Enjoy your Pooh theme. I’m gearing up for Little Einsteins.
(Also, I’m giving you an award on my blog. ;-))

My favorite birthday theme when I was a kid was probably the year we did popples – I loved those silly little things. Big Brother loved the hockey party we threw him a few years ago. If I were a little girl now I have no idea what I would pock. Ummm…. maybe Hannah Montana – personally as an adult I don’t really like her but as a kid I probably would have. I loved everything that involved singing and dancing. We are taking a page from your play book though – we are going to be celebrating Big Sister’s second birthday in Disney World. :)

I don’t think we really had themes when I was a kid but if I could have one now it would be pink & brown polka dots. :-)

Happy Birthday little man!
I didn’t have any themed parties. In fact, I only had one real birthday party when I was younger. My grandmother won a radio station call in and I had my 10th birthday party at Ben and Jerry’s. It was pretty awesome. If I could have a themed party now I would choose either Barbie or My Little Ponies. I wish I had a Jem party when I was younger because I loved her!
My girls have had; Winnie the Pooh, Disney Princess, Tinkerbell, Sesemee Street, Hannah Montana,
