My daughter is obsessed with rainbows. And unicorns. And her birthday is on Halloween. I wanted to incorporate all of that into one party theme.... and this is what I came up with.
A Rainbow Unicorn Halloween Party!
First- the decorations:
Rainbow streamers, paint card samples, and pom poms everywhere.
Even the pumpkins on the front porch were decked out in colored ribbon to fit the theme.
Treats:
Rainbow slush. So good!
We made rainbow cookies by adding food coloring to different sections of the dough, sectioning them into little beach balls, rolling those balls into a snake, and then spiraling the snake into a circle.

One useful idea: Use Ikea plates/cups/utensils instead of purchasing paper products. They are better for the environment, pretty stinking cheap, and you can use them again and again! Plus they are in the rainbow colors- perfect for our theme!
Of course the birthday girl got a special cupcake complete with a mini unicorn.
We started out decorating trick or treat bags with rainbow stickers and markers. Once they finished that, they could work on making a rainbow fruit loop necklace.
Once the kids were done with their bags, Aaron read them the story "Somewhere Over the Rainbow". Its a tradition to incorporate storytime into Boo's birthday parties. I pick out the book- and Daddy reads it!
We all came dressed in rainbow colors- except Boo who was wearing a rainbow shirt.
In the basement, we had unicorn races. I made my own stick horses using socks and a broomstick and added a foam cone to make it a unicorn.
We also played with a colorful parachute and rainbow balls. The kids had a riot with this activity!
