This
is a great trick for decorating a hallway that might lead
to a bathroom or another part of the party space. Create the
Seven Dwarfs' mine! Take a large roll of brown packaging paper
and crinkle it to look like rock. Use it to cover the walls
of the hallway in a rock-like fashion. You can cut out gems
of different colors and attach them to the wall OR you can
cut HOLES into the rock wall and tape colored tissue paper
from the back of the wall. Then, when you provide a light
source from behind a wall, the tissue paper 'gems' will actually
glow! If you have a dark light (the purple lights used at
Halloween) or can borrow one from the family, you'll have
the PERFECT setting for a mine scene to walk through!
Go
through the entire story of Snow White IN your party as part
of a Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs Experience. Consider
the different major parts of the story and incorporate them
into different activities and games for your party guests,
keeping them in proper chronological order. For added fun,
read a different portion of the story at each point so that
by the time the party is over, you will have convered the
entire story! (For some antiqued story pages of Snow White
and the Seven Dwarfs,

great parting gifts for your party guests.)
This
is a great idea because it will help out with your thank you
cards! Create a small bed in the fashion of the kind that
Snow White slept on in the story. Have plenty of flowers to
place around it, maybe even a few gems from the Dwarfs mine
(for some realistic gems without the annoying flat mirror
back,
CLICK
HERE.) Take a photo of each
party guest laying on the bed, pretending to be asleep. These
make for GREAT gifts to give each child in their thank you
cards...or to include as the image on the front of the cards
themselves!
Create a Snow White obstacle course to complete. Take the
different aspects of the Snow White story and think of a separate,
quick activity that would represent that part of the story,
keeping the events in proper chronological order. For example,
the different stops of the obstacle might include (in this
order), running to stop #1 to fill a bucket of water (Snow
White began the story as a maiden with lot of chores), followed
climbing a tree branch (when she ran through the woods from
the Huntsman), to running to a sandbox to find a hidden gem
(when we first meet the dwarfs),to running a plate with a
small fruit pie for her to eat (when she sang/ate/danced with
the dwarfs) to run to another plate with an apple slice (where
she ate the poisoned apple) to finally running to a small
bed to lay on as she waits for her prince to come and awaken
her. The participant with the shortest time, wins.
Play
a game of 'hot potato' - Snow White style! You'll need a small
bag of apples for this game. Begin by playing a song from
the movie Snow White (preferably a happier tune like "The
Silly Song") while the party guests pass an apple in
a circle. When the music stops, whoever is holding the apple
must take a bite out of the apple and then pretend to 'pass
out' and lay on the floor. The music is then played again
and a new apple is passed, passing over any players who have
taken a bite. This is repeated until one person is left and
declared the winner.
