This weekend, a local family threw a magical, book-themed birthday party to celebrate their little one turning three. The party, held at their home, was filled with fun activities, colorful decorations, and a love for reading.
Guests were invited to join in the literary adventure with a bounce house, exciting games, and a lively piñata. But the highlight of the day? Cupcakes decorated with covers of the birthday girl’s favorite books. From “Knight Owl” to “Miss Nelson is Missing,” every treat was a nod to a beloved story.
Parents and kids alike enjoyed the themed games, which included a “Immunity Showdown” and a “Wacky Scavenger Hunt.” The party atmosphere was as playful as it was educational, with plenty of smiles, laughter, and, of course, books to explore. It was a perfect way to celebrate a young reader’s big day!
