In Family Room
-"Monkeys at Play" sign hanging in family room doorway.
-Stuffed Curious George in red wagon, holding kite that was strung from the ceiling. As guests arrived, we placed the gifts in & around the wagon.
- Kid size tables & chairs with yellow table cloths.
-Sombrero hat, spray painted yellow.
-Play stations were marked with signs with related Curious George book covers. I glued the cover art to a pinwheel stick. Then took a Starbuck's bottle and stuffed some blue tissue paper in it, and glued an image of George for the label. I stuck the pinwheel with sign into the bottle, and put one at each station. (More on the play stations coming soon in my "Games & Activities" post!)
