Care Bear Theme Party Decorations

Children love balloons. Tie three to five colorful balloons together and place around the party room.

Decorate the walls with rainbows, stars and fluffy clouds. Cut these items out of poster board and color them in with paint.

Buy one or two plastic Care Bear table covers and cut the bear characters from them. Use these to decorate walls, doors and windows of the house.

Party Activities

Here are a couple Care Bear theme party activities.

Bear Bean Bag Toss

Draw a bear on a piece of large cardboard. Cut holes where the paws and belly are. For very young toddlers,lay the bear flat using books under the four corners to raise it from the ground. For older children you can stand it up. Give each guest 3-4 bean bags to toss at the bear. Give prizes to the ones who put the bean bags through the holes.

Bear Plate Puppets

Give each guest a paper plate, a glue stick and some scraps of construction paper. Let the kids turn their plates into bears. You can also give them glitter, small pieces of ribbon and crayons. When they have their bear decorated use a glue gun to attach a Popsicle stick or tongue depressor to it. Have everyone show off their new puppets, you can even have a quick puppet show!

Care Bear Party Favors

It would be fun to find items with the Care Bears printed on them for your Care Bear party favors, but that isn't necessary.
Bubbles will never go out of style and are always a welcome party favor.
Gummy Bears make a nice party favor treat.
Play dough and stickers are fun for kids of all ages and are an inexpensive party favor.
Coloring books and crayons are another favorite party favor.

Rainbow Birthday Cake

Bake a rectangular cake and frost it light blue or white. Draw a rainbow on the cake with a toothpick or knife, just barely denting in the frosting. Fill the areas of the rainbows in with colored sugar.
