FOR this party you will need as many paper dolls as you have invited
friends, and of course this, too, is just a girls’ party. Boys are out
of it! Beside the dolls, get colored tissue or crepe paper, scissors,
and paste. Arrange a table, at which to work, and when all your guests
have come, you can begin dressing the paper dolls. Let each choose her
own materials for the dresses. If you like, you can give a prize for
the best dressed doll, mother to be the judge.
Then for refreshments lemonade, or cocoa and sandwiches will be nice,
or if mother is willing, ice cream and cake. The refreshments can be
served on the table, on which you are working, if you like, for it will
only take a few moments to clear away the work, and arrange it for a
tea table.
A clothespin party’s new to you,
I really have no doubt,
So come to spend the afternoon,
And then you will find out.
