Anyone who has children knows how challenging it can be to create a special party….year after year. And, when those children get a little older and have been to every imaginable type of party, it becomes even harder.
Luckily, some friends and I shared the expense and the stress by hosting a party for our 3 sons. A game party. Trucks loaded with every imaginable video game arrived outside our venue. And, we didn’t see the boys until it was time to eat.
My favorite “go to” source for inexpensive, creative party favors is Alexis Murphy. Mother of 2. Endless supply of ideas. Creator of the blog and business named after her children, Jac’olyn Murphy.
Alexis created these bright and fun labels for the water bottles.
What a great party favor she created for us! These were unwrapped and enjoyed before the party was even over.
Wii love to throw parties. With a partner like Alexis….it’s game on!
Who is your favorite source for party ideas?

This is the cutest thing! I love it…..what a great party theme and tell me a young boy who wouldn't flip over all these cuteness! I have to pay this lady a visit…great job Elizabeth!
You put Mario Party to shame, Elizabeth! What a fun and creative site and it's just too bad my boys are over birthdays! Perhaps I'll just to have throw a party for myself…

Elizabeth-
I look forward to hosting my summer solstice party and I need to get my game on for some fun party favors.
You really know how to throw a party. There is a site that I need to send to you that uses the props to donate to charities. You will be blown away.

I know exactly what you are referring to here! It is not easy at all to come up with the party to go with the theme that is perfect for our children's birthday ideas.
You hit a hole-in-one here!
Happy Wednesday.

How clever! Wii love the creativity. What little boy wouldn't have fun at that party? How nice that you and your friends can celebrate your boys together and that you have such a great partner in crime with Alexis Murphy. Will definitely be sharing this with my friends who have little ones. Or maybe their Auntie Jeanne needs to do the party planning this year! XO
Great idea, so cute and I bet it would work with bigger boys too. I hope your son had a fabulous birthday!
Enjoy your day!
