1st bday party! Neverland Theme! Need Ideas!

My daughter doesn't turn 1 until Feb., but because we are so busy with Halloween, Thanksgiving, my hubbys bday in Jan., and my bday is the day after my daughters, we decided to start planning it now. That way come her bday we aren't going crazy! I just want to get some ideas together, that way if I see what I need on sale through the holidays, I can pick it up here and there.

So we are doing  Neverland theme, we love that we can use that we don't want our kids to grow up! Plus only one of my friends has a daughter, so there will be so many boys they can be pirates, lost boys, or peter pan, while the girls could be fairies.

I just need some ideas on what the kids can do for fun. They will be some 1 year olds, and 2-3 year olds. I saw some people said they traced the childrens shadows on paper, and the kids got to color them. I thought that sounded fun. I plan on renting a bounce house too. We can't have that much organized play at this age! But I do want some more ideas for some cute craft stations, or games.

I plan on favors being dress up stuff for the kids. Like wings, and tutus for the girls, and eye patches, pirate hats, etc. for the boys.

I just don't know how I want to decorate!!!

So if you guys know of any cute games, crafts, or decoration ideas please let me know!

You could dress her up like Tinkerbell. If interested,I make tutus and tutu dresses for all occasions.Here is my daughter in a sample dress I have available(these can be made in any color and size).I also do party packages as well if you are interested in purchasing coordinating tutus(or pirate themed tutus) for some of the other little girls who will be attending.If interested you can contact me via PM or you can email me dina_m_hill@yahoo.com

Very cute theme!  Maybe you could do a treasure chest as part of the decoration and a little fairy hiding place (like a tent made out of fabric and christmas lights)...good luck!
