Warming it Up with Chocolate

December 29, 2011 By Shannah Leave a Comment

Just before Christmas we hosted a Hot Chocolate Party for H and some of her friends.  It was a great way to get the kids together for some fun!  We had each family that came bring a plate of cookies or some other snack to share and we supplied the hot chocolate with all the toppings.

H insisted that she had to “bring” cookies as well so my {wonderful} mother-in-law made her some gingerbread men to decorate.

They decorated the cookies while I got all the other stuff set up for the next day.  I’m all about pre-planning as much as possible.  I had just about everything set up the night before (excluding the perishables) to limit how much I would need to do the day of the party.
I’m going to let the pictures do most of the talking here since they are pretty self explanatory!

On our little peninsula, we set up the treats for all the kids to munch on.  I had a marker and little cards out for everyone to write what they brought.

The kids sat at two little kid tables with snowman themed plates, cups and napkins!

 On each person’s plate, we put together a little bag with supplies to make a foam snowman (thanks, Shopaholic!).

We even had E join in on the fun (just no hot chocolate for my little man!)

 Lots of adorable little girls having fun!

Did you host any parties over the holidays?  Have a New Year’s party coming up?  I’m excited that we are headed to our close friends’ house for New Year’s which means no planning for me!
