A party decorated with Smiley faces will be colorful and fun. There are even some cute games that you can play, and creative party activities.

Smile Party Invitations:

Use yellow card stock to make bright yellow smiley faces. Just cut the pre-folded carstock into circles making sure to leave them connected at the top or the side. Enter your party information on the inside.

Inflate yellow balloons but do not tie them. Wrap the end around a paper clip so the air doesn't leak out. Write the party information with ink and allow to dry. Once they are dry, you can deflate them and send to your guests in an envelope.

Smile Party Decorations:

You will be able to make most of the decorations for this party.

Get some yellow poster board for some wall decorations:
Trace circles using dinner plates, coffee plates and cups. Cut out the various circles, draw silly faces on them and tape to walls and doors.

Make Smile people by adding some arms and legs to the faces. Get creative and have fun with them. Use can use strips of paper or pipe cleaners for the arms.

Balloons are the quickest, easiest and least expensive way to brighten up any party.
Smile Party Balloons

Decorate some of the balloons with yarn hair and party hats.
You could even make a small smilecrow in the same way that you would make a scarecrow. Use a balloon for the head and stuff the clothes with newspaper rather than straw.

To go along with your homemade decorations here are a couple of great resources for table necessities:

Solid color plastic tablecover
Decorate this table cover by drawing your own smiley faces on it. Just trace a dinner plate or a coffee plate or both, then add the faces.

Yellow 9" dinner plates

Smile face mugs This are so much fun to drink out of. Your guests will think of this Smile Party everytime they use this cup.

Smile Party Activities:

Guess the Smiles:
Fill a clear jar with smiley face bubblegum Have each guest try to guess how many are in the jar. Award that jar to the winner. You can also fill smaller jars with the same gum to give the other guests.

Smile Frisbee:
Take regular sized paper plates and spray paint the front and backs yellow.(you could also buy yellow plates) Allow the kids to decorate the plates with stickers and markers.
Set an empty box at the far end of the room and have the guests try to fly their frisbee into the box. Award one point for each time they make it. Try playing up to ten points.

Pinata Game:
A great party decoration that can also be a game. This Smile Pinata is cute and if you use the pull string method, you won't have to worry about kids hitting each other with the stick.

Smile Placemats:
You will need some white poster board, yellow poster board, clear contact paper, markers and stickers.
Cut the white poster board into 1'x 2' lengths. Cut dinner plate sized circles from the yellow paper, you can also make some smaller spool sized circles.
Let the kids decorate the white paper using one large circle and some of the smaller circles, stickers and markers. Once the kids have their masterpieces made you can laminate them using the clear contact paper. Don't forget to send these home with the kids as a party favor.

Smile Party Favors:

Smile Party Shakers:
Take two small yellow paper plates. Place them so the bottoms are facing out. Staple them about half the way up and add a cup of beans to them. Finish stapling the rest of the way. You can prepare these before the party and have the kids decorate them during the party.

Smile Face Visors

Make up your own party favor packs using brown lunch bags decorated with smiley faces.

Here are some theme related items you can put into your Smile Party favor packs:
Head boppers Cute headbands that have smiley face balls on the attennas.

Smile Face Pencils kids go through pencils so quickly. This party favor is sure to be a hit with kids and parents alike.

Smile face bubbles cute containers that are sure to keep the kids busy for awhile. I love blowing bubbles, its so relaxing.

Smile stickers Use these for decorating or for party favors. These stickers are a nice size, you don't have to worry about losing them on your fingers.

Smile Party Food and Drinks:

Smile Juice:
Lemonade, Mountain Dew, Apple Juice or any other yellow drink can be called smile juice.

Smile Party Cake:
Bake a round layer cake and frost with yellow frosting. Add jellybean eyes and licorice strings for the mouth. You could also draw the eyes and mouth on with jel icing.

Cupcakes frosted with yellow icing and each one having a different smile face drawn onto it would be a really cute idea. Heck you don't even have to use yellow frosting, make them all different colors.
