Tea Party

Not that type of tea party. This type of tea party. The best and only kind of tea party that brings a smile to the face of a two year old.

We are working on table manners and learning how to set the table, etc. so I thought a more fun way to do it is to have a tea party when the Kid after I am done with work for the day and she gets home from preschool. I even bought special mini teacups and plates at our local HomeGoods store and we set up our mini IKEA table and chairs in the living room and have a snack.

Here is what we usually sometimes have on our menu:

• strawberries
• mini muffins or cupcakes
• cheese
• sandwiches, cut up into bite size pieces
• Drinks: vanilla milk, chai tea, tea punch or lemonade
  

Side note: This party is not for the faint of heart. I am usually vacuuming a zillion muffin crumbs and pieces of cheese off the carpet afterward. Worth it.
