Official invitations are sent in the mail using english tea notecards, handwritten or printed. Tea party food, tea, coffee and sometimes chocolate are laid on a table covered with lace or white table cloth in a buffet style, though the tea is poured by the hostess for the guests. It can be a sit down affair or stand and mingle around the living room.

"Tea is a portable feast and a wonderful vehicle for sharing" - Emilie Barnes The idea is to pack what you need for a tea party into a picnic basket, and go visit your friend, go to the park, up the mountains. Use a thermos, air tight containers, gladwrap, sealed sandwich packs and you're good to go. You may even stop by the super market to get those adorable looking cheese & crackers packets for everyone.

You can start by helping them plan, prepare and host the party, then you 'leave' them to it. First of all, you can help them design and draw out their invitations. Use pretty colours, draw roses, cups of tea. Provide them with little ribbons and buttons, lace, stickers for embellishments. Send them properly, by the mail. Do not hand them out in school. Encourage the invited guests to dress up for the party on the phone as you call their mothers to confirm attendance. On that eventful day, provide a little chest for dress up clothes - mock pearl necklaces, feathers, brooches, hats, scarves, gloves. ![]() Help set up the table - do it together with your child. Cover it with tablecloth, place a pot of flowers in the middle as centerpiece and place plates of assorted cupcakes, cookies, jellies in the widest array of colours you can find. It will definitely be a day of picture perfect moments!
