Marie Antoinette Party

It was a hot summer morning and Celeste took her drinks seriously.



Beautiful Viv with my little revolutionary.



I dressed for Le Petit Trianon.



Party games by Liza were a hit.




Conversation with Poppy.



 Bela.



Cakes!



Whirligig making.


See, my little prince?




So much cake!





Pin the bow on the wig.






A couple of weeks in advance I passed on this website for the guests along with their invitaion that included the Mini History of Marie Antoinette.
It was a fun morning with the kids.  The party was a collaborative effort on the part of us moms who believe in making learning fun.

and fun it looks, too.
what a courageous spectacle, and probably overly rewarding, which makes the circle round...
