Retro Birthday Party Fun!

We celebrated little Harvey's 5th birthday over the weekend.

With loads of retro inspired food and fun, everyone had a ball.

Go Jasper! You made some yummy fruit skewers.

We made some kooky cookies using the classic arrowroot, some icing and lollies.

Love the crazy characters the kids came up with.

Retro party game fun was had with this amazing Pin the Tail on the Donkey Game

(which we stock here at Shorties for just $9)

and an Egg and Spoon Race.

Colourful retro party decorations in Red, White and Blue (of course)

And sweetly simple lolly bags decorated and put together by the birthday boy himself.
