I have a friend that has a soon to be 6 year old granddaughter. The DGG is having her first sleep over birthday party with 6 guests. I have been thinking about making each of the girls a mini mug rug and cup party favor. Part of the party is going to be having a tea party with dress up hats and junk jewelry. What do you think?

I think it would be a very sweet thing to do. The girls would love. I know my nieces would.

great idea and so much fun the party sounds like.

I think it would be an adorable idea! Maybe make the mug rug match/coordinate with the tea cups.

They would feel soo grown-up. Great idea.

I used to have a craft/flower shop.We made a room in the shop just for little girls tea parties. They love to drink out of fancy tea cups. We used the old glass snack trays.You can find them at most thrift shops for very little.
The birthday girl got to choose a tea pot to serve the tea. We always served a flavored tea but had kool-aid for those who did not want tea. A place card for each girl. Linen table clothes and napkins, silver serving trays and flowers on the table. They loved it. Most have never used a cloth napkin or knew many table manners such as "yes please". We tried to make it fun but a learning session also. Don't forget the make up. After they got dressed up they got made up by an adult. Good memories. judy j

Its a great idea. The girls will love them. One year my granddaughter had a sleepover around American Girl dolls and I made fleece sleeping bags for the dolls. They decorated them. Big hit.

This is a great idea and the girls will have a party favor they can take home and use.

That is a terrific idea the girls will love it..I just had a tea party bridal shower, we used cups and sauces from thrift stores and garage sales. The ladies chose thier own cups to use and then they took them home as a parting gift, it was a huge hit.

Excellent idea! To extend it, leave a place on the mugrug to write their names in permanent marker....the grandma would do the writing, since the kids are young.
