Fairy Fun

Fairy Magic

Find 5 pennies with different dates. Decorate a small satchel or pouch to be a fairy bag and place the pennies inside it. Ask a guest to pick a penny from the bag and look at the date, but not tell what it is. Then, pass the penny around so everyone except the birthday child can look at the date. After everyone else has seen the chosen penny, put it back in the fairy bag.

Once the chosen penny is back in the bag, the birthday child touches the bag with a star fairy wand. Then, he or she reaches in and takes the chosen penny from the bag. (Since copper absorbs heat, the birthday child knows the penny everyone handled will be warm.) Your guests will love this fairy magic!

Fantastic Fairy Tales

This activity is a great way to bring your party to an end. To begin, ask one guest to begin telling a traditional fairy tale. Move around the circle and let each guest add a new installment to the story, being as imaginative as they like. Your party guests will have fun dreaming up outlandish tales with this fun activity. In the case of a slumber party it’s a good game to play while laying in your sleeping bag.

Recipes

 

Cloud in a Cup

Your guests will be on cloud nine when they taste this delicious recipe! To begin, measure one cup dry macaroni and cook until tender; drain. Saute 1 small chopped onion in margarine until tender. Add 2 Tbs. cornstarch and 2 cups nonfat milk; cook and stir until thick and bubbly. Reduce heat and cook 2-3 minutes longer. Add 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese and 2 cups frozen corn to the onion mixture, stirring until cheese melts. Remove from heat.  Next, separate 4 eggs. Beat egg yolks and slowly add to the cheese mixture, stirring constantly so they mix in evenly. Then, fold in the drained macaroni. In a separate bowl, beat egg whites and 1/4 tsp. cream of tartar until stiff peaks form. Fill 8 ovenproof mugs (coffee mugs work well), 1/4 full with cheese and macaroni mixture. Top with a heaping spoonful of egg white to form clouds. Place mugs on a baking sheet and bake at 350° F for 25 minutes, or until golden brown.

Fairy Sandwiches

Cut an equal number of thin slices of brown and white bread, and butter them with the following mixture: Beat three ounces of fresh butter to a cream with four ounces of powdered sugar beating it well together for some little time; then beat in a tablespoon of lemon juice. Set it on ice for an hour. After having spread this mixture on the bread, sprinkle thinly with blanched and chopped nuts of any kind. Press the white slices to the brown, and stamp out in circles or triangles.

Special Sandwiches
