Young girls can dress up as ballerinas for a birthday party.
As children reach the age of 4, they begin to develop their motor skills, sensory and thinking skills, and language and social skills. You can plan a birthday party that reflects this development by including interactive activities in the party. Birthday parties for 4-year-old girls can feature a variety of activities, and themes can involve their favorite television shows or dress-up. Does this Spark an idea?
"Dora the Explorer"
"Dora the Explorer" is an animated television show featured on Nick Jr. that follows a young girl as she travels the globe to help somebody or find something. Dora-themed party favors, invitations and decorations are available online or at local party store. In keeping with the "Dora the Explorer" theme, parents can organize a scavenger hunt and have the girls at the party look for secret treasures around the house. For an extra fun touch, prepare a Dora the Explorer piñata that is filled with small toys and treats and have the children break it open.
Princess Party
A princess party offers a 4-year-old girl an opportunity to experience the royal treatment with her friends. Decorations can include purple and pink balloons, plates, napkins, streamers and centerpieces. Ask each guest to wear a dress and give her a tiara upon her arrival. By the age of four, children can begin to feed themselves, so have the girls sit at a table and give them small sandwiches and cookies. Set up a table so that the girls can decorate their tiaras or make wands with stickers, gemstones, glitter and paint.
Ballerina Party
Because 4-year-olds are able to follow simple directions, a ballerina party offers the girls the opportunity to dress up in tutus, learn a dance and play games. Play classical music in the background and teach the girls a few basic ballet positions. Ask a ballerina teacher to come in to help the girls learn the steps, or you can learn a few basic moves and teach the girls. Also have the girls participate in a variety of dance-related activities, such as musical chairs and a dance contest.
