The Sweetest Gingerbread House Decorating Party You've Ever Seen

Personalize this seasonal stationery from Tiny Prints to include helpful party details like arriving in pajamas or asking guests to bring their favorite decorating candy to share.

A cheerful breakfast and gingerbread house decorating party in PJs is a sweet way to celebrate the season with your friends while kids eat and play.

Set the tone for a seasonal pajama party with a festive hot chocolate cart complete with candy cane stirrers.

Kids appreciate having their own special place settings as much as they enjoy coordinating decor.

Put your bar cart to use even at a child-friendly party with hot chocolate mocktails.

Change up the typical formal holiday party dress code for something more kid-friendly like their favorite holiday pajamas!

Bottles of milk garnished with minidoughnuts and holiday paper straws add a special touch to each place setting.

A clever trick for kids' parties is to use theme-appropriate wrapping paper as the table runner. The bright pattern makes your table pop and the easy cleanup will be a welcome treat.

As an extra treat, you can have personalized plates made at Dylbug for each child that also double as escort cards and favors.

Have a festive spot ready for the kids to patiently wait as the moms transform their holiday brunch spot into a gingerbread house decorating station. Just a few seasonal throw pillows can transform a room for the entire Winter season.

Serve your little guests bite-size brunch complete with mini pancakes, waffles, cinnamon rolls, scones, and doughnuts, eggs, sausage, and fruit.

The fun thing about these plates — besides from being personalized with each guest's name — is that they can serve as both a place setting and activity. Let the kids dress Santa and Mrs. Claus with their meal!

Just imagine a festive brunch with your closest girlfriends and their sweet kids.

By opting for a menu with lots of choices in bite-size portions, you'll be able to accommodate even the pickiest of eaters.

A brunch menu is always a great choice because it allows you to serve fruit, eggs, and protein along with more indulgent treats like pancakes and cinnamon buns.

When your place settings double as an activity (like Santa and Mrs. Claus plates the kids can decorate with their servings) everyone wins!

It's the holidays after all, so encourage kids to get creative and even play with their food. It gets their juices flowing for decorating the gingerbread houses after they finish eating.

The only thing that could make a holiday party even better is a hot chocolate bar complete with candy canes and snowmen marshmallows.

Who wouldn't want to sip some hot chocolate out of these adorable Santa Claus mugs?

Dress up your hot cocoa with festive mugs, snowmen marshmallows, and peppermint sticks.

Whether you encourage siblings to wear their matching holiday pajamas or have everyone come in their own favorite pair, the photos will turn out adorable.

If you didn't know these snowmen marshmallows and peppermint drink stirrers existed, you'll never be able to look at a plain cup of hot cocoa the same.

Not only do cupcake trays look adorable for a brunch decorating party, but they are also an easy way to organize your gingerbread house candies and sprinkles for kids to share.

Be sure to either use rubber bands or pastry bag ties to keep icing in the bags. Kids have a tendency to squeeze the middle of the bags, which will cause the frosting to end up everywhere.

After each guest completes their gingerbread house masterpiece, snap an individual pic of them and their work of art while standing in front of a festive background.

The older the kids, the longer they will spend decorating and the less mess you'll have to clean up. You'll be amazed at their dedicated concentration.

Save yourself the mess and make sure to tie the ends of each pastry bag and explain to each child not to squeeze too hard in the middle, or else you'll have an icing explosion to deal with.

If you serve brunch before they start decorating, your little guests will spend less time eating the decor and more time focused on their gingerbread houses.

Set up already made gingerbread houses at each place and let the kids decorate them without having to first build them. This will prevent any upset party guests from wobbly gingerbread houses collapsing.

Help each child write their names in frosting. They'll love being able to decorate "their" gingerbread houses and you'll appreciate being able to tell them apart at the end of the party.

Organize the variety of sprinkles and candy into muffin trays set up across the table. Everyone will be able to reach their favorite treats without having to struggle or argue.

Host this little get-together year after year and you'll love having the darling photos as they get older.
