Other than that the invites feature a nice design and if your lucky enough to have your child celebrating their 3rd birthday party would be ideal.

If you want to pull the theme throughout the entire party and you do not want to spend a great deal of time hand making everything or buying everything to match, Birthday Express is your solution. They have fantastic Caillou party packs that include EVERYTHING you need to throw the perfect party for your child, including balloons, table cloths, a personalized banner, Caillou place settings, and even party favors. It is the perfect way to have a stunning and stress free Caillou birthday party.

When it comes to the Caillou decorations it is all about fun and bright colors. Caillou wears blue, yellow and red so this is a great idea for your color scheme. You can use streamers and balloons to get the color theme throughout the house.

If you do want more of a hands on approach you can easily print out pictures from your child's favorite Caillou adventures and have them put around the house. These are not only bright and colorful decorations but they are very personal to your child. You can even create your own personalized banner by using Caillou pictures as backgrounds to the letters. Depending on the size you want you can do one letter per page or do four letters on a page. Then just cut out the letters and tie them together with ribbon and hang.

For the cake you can get some inspiration from Photography By Michelle. She created this stunning cake for her two year old son. The three tiers are simply frosted in blue, yellow and red. Then colored M&Ms created the perfect accents to add extra color and fun to the cake. For her topper she used a Caillou bath toy, but you can easily print out a Caillou picture for the top or use a Caillou toy.

If you want to get a little more personalized with your cake then you can go to Etsy and find some of their adorable edible cake toppers that can be personalized with your child's name. With a bit of icing both fondant and buttercream will work work you could have a great looking Caillou birthday cake. All that would be needed is a border around the image.

If your planning on including cupcakes you could make your cupcake toppers by using the free cupcake topper templates Seven thirty three made or you can order the custom made Caillou cupcake toppers from Custom Cake Creations and more ebay store.

When it comes to food for the party, the best idea is to go with treats and snacks that your child and the other little ones will enjoy. You can even create a fruit tray that features the color scheme of the party with strawberries, blueberries and pineapple! Chicken fingers and sandwiches are also great choices for more hearty foods. You can also make cookies and cupcakes with primary colored frosting to really fit the theme. You can also get clear cups and then serve punch in blue and red for some extra color. Another idea would be to get small cups and make three different colors of jello for the kids to enjoy.

The party favors should be all about letting the kids experience the fun of Caillou at home. If you didn't purchase the big party package from Birthday Express which comes with party favors, you can purchase them separately or go with one of these great options.

One idea is to head to Amazon.com and purchase a set of Caillou books. This set of books can easily be separated so that each child can go home with their own Caillou book to enjoy. It is also a really affordable favor considering the value it will have to the child that receives it.

An easy idea would be to make little goody bags that are filled with candies or toys. If you make the cake above from regular bags of M&Ms then you can give out the other colors of M&Ms in the goody bags, which is a great way to get rid of extra candy that you don't want around the house.

For Caillou party activities the focus should be on creativity and imagination. If you are willing to deal with a little mess and can find some cheap aprons (or old shirts) letting the kids paint with primary colors is a great themed activity. They will get to unleash their own imaginations to bring some of Caillou's adventures to life.

Another idea would be to print out some dinosaur masks and let the kids paint or color them with their own favorite designs. Then have all the kids wear the mask and have a roaring contest, just like Caillou does with his dinosaur friend. If you know someone that is good with face painting you can have the kids get their faces painted so that they can pretend to be any sort of creature just like Caillou.

You can also choose to read your child's favorite Caillou book or watch their favorite show so that even the kids who are not familiar with Caillou enjoy the party.
