How to Throw a Pocahontas Party {on a budget)


My daughter challenged me with a Pocahontas Party this past December.  She's been studying Pocahontas in school and had just watched the movie at Grandma's.  But as I was looking online, the Pocahontas theme was retired in the ninety's.    So we went with aqua blue and yellow, and lots of sunflowers.  Here's some highlights from the day and a breakdown on our budget.

Party Budget Breakdown

* Party supplies--$10 (bough from Dollar Tree/ Party City)

* Making necklaces--Cording--$4
                                Beads--$2

                                                   Tape and blindfold--on hand

* Pass the Grizzly Bear--Stuffed Animal--on hand
                                        Colors of the Wind CD--from dance class
