Welcome to the final instalment in the Teddy Bear’s Picnic Party Series! Here are the other posts, don’t miss out on all the fun :)

Teddy Bear’s Picnic Party: The Activities

We had about 15 children come along to Pebble’s party, aged from 3 months (!) to 10 years, but mostly in the 2 – 4 age range. I kept the activities very simple and unstructured. We are lucky to have a huge back yard with a swing set and a cubby, so that alone is plenty to keep a bunch of kids happy. I set up the following activities for children to join in with if they wished.

Colouring Table

I printed out some colouring pages from Sparklebox and popped them on the table in the lounge with crayons and pencils.

Play Dough Table

I printed and laminated bear play dough mats and put them on a table outside with some store bought play dough tubs. I used the bear mats in the Sparklebox Toy set and Three Bears set .

Book Basket

I went though our (huge!) collection of children’s books and picked out all the teddy bear related stores, then set them up them in a basket on a rug in the lounge room.

Picnic Rug and Tea Set

On the lawn we put out a picnic rug, a few teddy bears and one of Pebble’s tea sets.

Face Painting

Our niece, who has just completed a face painting course, offered to come and do face painting for the party. The kids loved it… and the adults too :) She did a fabulous job, thank you Naomi x
