PET PARTY

If you're a pet lover like us, then you've either thought of a pet party, had a pet party yourself, or attended a pet party.

Pet parties are a great way to pamper your pet on their special day.

• Cut dog-bone shapes from off white construction paper (you can trace around a dog-bone cookie cutter or a large dog biscuit) and fill in all the information about your doggie party.

• With yellow or green colored construction paper, cut out the shape of a bird. Write party information on the colored paper. With brown construction create a bird cage or small tree. Place bird inside cage or atop tree and mail to your guests.

DECORATIONS
• Decorate your table with stuffed animals, big and small.

• Put bowls of pet treats around the party area.

• Sponge-paint paw prints all over a solid-color plastic tablecloth or on poster boards and hang on your wall.

• Make a big cardboard box doghouse with one doorway in front and another in back so that kids or pets can crawl through.

ACTIVITIES

• Give you pets a pedicure…ahhhh.
