I am in the swirl of planning a sweet 5 year old party. My goal is to keep things simple, fun and eco-friendly. Without taking away the traditions and good times, I want to make sure that I keep the earth and the health of all the children in mind. With nut, gluten, soy and dairy allergies in the mix I have to be conscious of everyone involved and show that we can throw one heck of a bash without compromising all I believe when it come to being kind to the earth and the people who live upon it.

Here is a short version of my To-Do List:

• Food (allergy friendly)
• Decorations
• Entertainment and Games
• Fun takeaways

The Solutions

Recently I was introduced to a wonderful online store called EcoPartyTime.com. I have to say that I was thrilled to find a place that had so many great options for planning my kiddos' party. Here are just some of the amazing things that arrived in my box to help me prepare for tomorrow:

Beautiful Felt Banner - This will easily become a tradition for all birthdays
that are celebrated in this home.

EcoStars -These will be great for giving out as a special treasure. All these crayons are made with Certified NON-TOXIC Crayons. They are 100% recycled crayons. The purchase of these products supports "Recycling" Education and employs people with developmental disabilities - creating a positive Earth conscious impact through the art of coloring and recycling! These crayons and packaging are made in the USA with 100% Recycled Non-Toxic Materials.

Kings Felt Crown
My little dude will be prince for the day and beyond with this wonderful felt crown.
This will easily become part of the dress up drawer after the party.
