Pony Party Decorations
If you can throw a pony themed party outdoors, then this should definitely be something you do. This gives a more rustic, pony ranch feel to the party and plenty of space for the kids to play as well. Decorations can include all sorts of beautiful, barn-like motifs, from wooden backdrops with pony stamped images to distressed wooden tables, to even a replicated barn playhouse for the kids to play in. Colors to hone in on are soft pinks, rustic browns, and ivories, and fabrics like burlap, ruffled linens, and doily place settings are great added details. Banners with pony images, along with barn stars, pink balloons, and miniature toy ponies set up along tables go splendidly with soft floral arrangements that can include flowers like pale pink peonies and white baby’s breath. You can never have too many ribbons and bows on everything from chairs to serving ware, and opt for matching sets of tableware with images of ponies to tie your entire look together.
Pony Party Food
A main table can be set up to house the party cake, along with all the other delicious treats, beverages, and snacks. Keeping in with the pony theme, a double tiered cake with frilly pink frosting and an adorable pony topper is just the thing. Other treats that have a pony ranch, somewhat Western twist are chocolate dipped apples on sticks, miniature apple pies, and sugar cookies in the shape of ponies with thick sugary frosting. Sliced apples in cups with caramel and berries make healthier sweets. Cake pops with cowgirl hats, chocolate pudding cups, and giant colorful lollipops are also yummy treats to have, while beverages of chocolate milk and pink lemonade can be served in little mason jar glasses. Scrumptious salty fares to have on hand are classic peanut butter and jelly, celery and carrot sticks set up in ranch cups, and cucumber sandwiches for the adults. Don’t forget the apothecary jars full of pretzels and candies!
Pony Party Party Bags
Party favors can be extremely fun with a pony themed party, so fill up personalized burlap bags with lots of themed goodies like colorful macaroons, miniature toys of My Little Pony, clip in rainbow hair, and even little pony plastic cups full of more candy. You can also incorporate activities and games with the favors, such as cowboy hats, riding stick ponies, or pony handkerchiefs. Glittery favors like pony hair bows and stickers are also a perfect little addition to your guest party gift bags.
Pony Party Games
There are so many options for games with a pony themed party, and perhaps one of the most popular is Pin the Tail on the Pony. Other activities can include fun yard games, like races n stick ponies, horseshoes, hopscotch, and if you have the opportunity, actual pony rides. It can also be an extra fun activity to roast hot dogs and marshmallows over the fire, just like the little ones would do if they were on a real pony ranch.
