Sometimes I get so busy planning and thinking up ideas for my kids’ birthdays that I don’t really step back and think about what I’m going to do for my own birthday when it rolls around. An Alice in Wonderland birthday party is one of those themes that works great for adults and for kids, too (but I’ll be honest—I’d totally save this theme for myself! The kids can stick to Peppa Pig…).
Forget about wading around in the depths of Pinterest to find great Alice in Wonderland party ideas. I’ve rounded them all up here for you. Check them out in the slideshow.
