In a blink of an eye, my precious little man has turned 2. Like every other boy, he loves balls, cars, monsters and loves riding his tricycle outdoor. He's an active little boy and demands for attention throughout his waking hours. This means that I cannot work on my sugar flowers until he is asleep otherwise sugar flowers will turn into pancakes in a second as he loves playing with my rolling pin. Hubby and I bought him a Play Doh cooking set and thought both of us can sculp together, but noooo, he prefers real fondant over Play Doh! Masterchef Junior in the making?? haha..
But he really is one of the cheekiest little boy you can find. So I thought having a monkey themed birthday party would be cute.
I had so much fun planning and making everything according to the theme. And of course, the monkey boy has got to have a monkey cake!
It was a poolside party and many kids were invited. I prepared a variety of finger food and even made a Pinata in the shape of a 'coconut' for the kids!
Squid balls and sausages were labeled as "Monkey's Eyeballs & Tongues". Cake Pops were "Monkey's Doo Doo". There were also "Pee-Nut & Banananana Cupcakes" and an Ice Cream Bar. As for beverage, I served chilled coconut juice aka "Monkey Juice".
Kids went home happy with a Monkey Face Cookie and a monkey-bucket full of candies each. Most importantly, my sister did not drop the birthday cake this time.
