(We didn't hand out grass skirts but one little guest arrived in her own!)ĪCTIVITIES: A-B-C Room: One room was set up with various ABC/writing/art activities: ABC blocks a chalkboard and colored chalk ABC magnets (and cookie sheets to stick them to since we weren't by a refrigerator!) glass markers to write on the windows mural paper taped up on a wall with crayons to draw ABC tiles from a phonics game and a stuffed coconut tree with velcro letters to stick on it (based on the book -I borrowed this from my daughter's preschool teachers). and we had some silk hair flowers available too.

All the guests received a lei (flowers for girls palm leaves for boys) also from O.T. My daughters went through their stuffed animal basket and got out the tropical ones. I also had a big tissue-paper sun face wearing sunglasses from Oriental Trading because the mascot of my daughter's preschool was a smiling sun face. from Oriental Trading and the dollar store. It also said for the guests to wear tropical or beach attire.ĭECORATIONS: We decorated in a Hawaiian theme with a big palm tree cutout flamingoes parrots tissue flowers etc. It was modeled on the text of the story, and it said: A told B and B told C I'll meet you at Eleanor's coconut tree! Chicka Chicka Boom Boom there's sure to be enough room! Please come to a Chicka Chicka A-B-C Luau to celebrate Eleanor's 5th birthday." and then the party info. On the back was glued a white card with the party info. I used scrapbooking paper in brown and green to make coconut trees on the cards, and I used A-B-C stickers to spell the word P-A-R-T-Y going up the trunk of each tree. INVITATIONS For the invitations, I used pre-cut cards and matching envelopes from Michael's craft store -hot pink for the girls, orange for the boys. It's very cute and has artwork showing coconut trees and rainbow A-B-C's on an orange and hot pink polka-dotted background. (The children are the lowercase A-B-C's, and the parents are the upper case). The book is about child A-B-C's who climb a coconut tree and fall out, to be comforted by their parent A-B-C's. CHICKA CHICKA BOOM BOOM" A-B-C LUAU For my daughter's fifth birthday I decided to combine an A-B-C off-to-kindergarten theme with a fun Hawaiian theme by using the book "Chicka Chicka Boom Boom which they had read in her preschool class.
