Planning a Pink Tutu Party for Little Ballerinas

by ellen benton

Little girls love the idea of being ballerinas and twirling on their toes.  Many imagine dancing on stage in their ballerina shoes and beautiful costumes.  A fun party to throw for an aspiring ballerina is a Pink Tutu Birthday Party.

Some dance studios offer birthday party packages, which may include a mini dance lesson from a professional in a studio room.  Having your party at a studio not only provides professional instruction and an authentic setting, little girls will have fun watching themselves wiggle and prance in the studio mirrors. 

If renting studio space isn’t an option for you, check your local dance studios for a hirable ballet student to teach a few basic ballerina steps or moves to the guests in your home.  Also, you may be able to find a neighborhood dancer or family friend who will donate their services to you for your Pink Tutu Birthday Party.

Invite guests to wear their tutus, leotards, and ballerina slippers.  Any color will suffice, but pink is the preferred color for the birthday party.  Have a few extra ballerina skirts or tutus for those who don’t own ballerina attire.  For fun, parents can put their daughter’s hair up in a ballerina ball. 

On the day of the party, make sure all decorations are pink.  Decorate the chairs with bows made from pink taffeta.  Bake or purchase a cake in the shape of a ballerina or ballerina slippers.  Another option is to bake cupcakes and decorate them with pink icing and miniature ballerinas.  Also, serve strawberry ice cream in pink bowls.

The girls will enjoy this Pink Tutu Birthday Party and pretending to be beautiful ballerinas.  Before each ballerina leaves, give her a pink rose like at a ballet recital.
