birthday party at Blizzard Beach

[jacncaitsmom]

We live in Orlando and my 9year old wants to take a few friends to Blizzard Beach for his birthday. Luckily some of them have water park passes already. Anyway, we have only been 1 time several years ago. We don't have a large group, only 5 kids and 3 adults. Any suggestions on how to make this special without spending a ton? I need party prizes and food suggestions. Thanks!

Not sure, but bumping back up for you.

If you're planning on providing lunch for all the kids, why not pack each kid's lunch in a plastic beach bucket? Wrap up a PB sandwich (or something else withough mayonnaise! ), a bag of pretzels, some gummy snacks, fruit rollups -- whatever -- and put them in a plastic pail with a shovel and a terry washcloth instead of a napkin. Maybe put in sunglasses as a party favor, or a Typhoon Lagoon pin or an inexpensive waterproof watch or even a couple of Disney dollars. Then either purchase drinks at the park or bring juice boxes or bottles of water in a cooler.

You can buy buckets and shovels at the dollar store, and lunch fixings can be as elaborate or simple as you want them to be.
