\n<\/a><\/strong>Anyone living with a 5 year old girl knows how crucial it is to get the right Princess dress on the day of your birthday party. Go for one of the new princesses like Rapunzel from Tangled, or Sofia the First, or the more traditional types like Belle or Cinderella.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Getting Uncle, Dad or Grandad to dress up will appeal to the birthday girl, and create a moment of disbelief for the other children who hopefully won\u2019t recognise them straight away.\u00a0 Then you can gleefully hand over the responsibility of all the party games to the one in fancy dress.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Lots of helium balloons hold the wow factor as both decoration and goody bag giveaways, but the Birthday Girl beamed when hers said \u2018Happy Birthday Princess.\u2019<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Avoid spending hours tying ribbons to balloons, and go with these pre-prepared balloon valves with ribbons already attached. Attach to balloon weights and they look great!<\/p>\n
\n<\/a><\/strong>Colourful and simple, these look great on a white paper table cover. Provide colouring pens or crayons for speedy eaters and they\u2019ll doodle while they wait for their friends to finish. Easy to clear away too.<\/p>\n
