Where does she get her ideas from I often wonder. I guide her thoughts but often my daughter has her own set of views. For her 4th birthday she wanted a Red Riding Hood theme. Since we just moved to Gladstone, I was not ready for a big bash and Gladstone really does not offer the play areas or catering options the other cities I lived in offered.

It was a simple Google Hangout with family spread around the world.

Food:

Cucumber tea sandwiches

Strawberry Fields Torte from The Cheesecake  shop

Watermelon kebabs

Tomato – Cheddar kebabs

Raspberry thumbprint cookies (Store-brought)

Chocolate wafer biscuit twigs with tiny teddy bears hiding (store-brought)

Strawberry Fresca Drink (frozen strawberry ice cubes with Sprite)

Here are some pictures from the party

Paper rosettes/medallions on the wall

A tree to mime the jungle created from cardboard box

Candy tree – I used an old plastic bottle in the center and just tapped candy and chocolate all around it

And there is little Miss.Red Riding Hood in red unwrapping gifts
