Cookie Jar Party Invitations

  • Draw a cookie jar on a manila folder. Cut out the jar and use the pattern to trace the jars onto colored paper.
  • Cut out the jars and use a marker to write the party details on them.
  • Use a word processing program to download and print out clip art of cookies. Cut out the cookies and glue them to the top of the jar.
  • Write “Happy Birthday _____!” with a marker on three of the cookies.

Cookie Birthday Party Themed Food

  • Create a mini-cookie snack mix. Purchase bite size versions of you favorite cookies at the grocery store. Toss them together in a large bowl with pretzels, raisins and peanuts.
  • Make a chocolate chip cheese ball. Mix strawberry flavored cream cheese with confectioner’s sugar and mini-chocolate chips. Mold into a ball shape and wrap with plastic wrap. Let it chill for an hour and then roll the ball in the rest of the mini-chocolate chips. Serve with chocolate graham cracker sticks.
  • Dish up cookie dough ice cream sundaes. Serve a variety of toppings such as brownie bites, M&Ms, sprinkles, mini-marshmallows, maraschino cherries, hot fudge and whipped cream.

Number Cookie Birthday Cake

  • Bake a number cookie cake. Buy packages of premade sugar cookie dough. Shape the dough log into the age of the birthday child- use one package for each number. Sprinkle mini M&Ms over the numbers and press them lightly into the dough. Bake according to the package directions.

Cookie Themed Birthday Party Games

  • Eat the Cookie off the String - Purchase or bake sugar or chocolate chip cookies. Use a needle and thread to string each cookie by poking a hole through the center of the cookie and tying the ends of the string together. During the party have the adults hold the cookies by the string while the children try to eat them off without using their hands.

  • The Frozen Cookie Dance - Enlarge the clip-art cookies from the invitations on a copier or at an office supply store. Make copies of the cookies on brown paper. Laminate the cookies using a laminator or contact paper. Before the party tape the cookies to the floor using packaging tape. Play upbeat music while having the kids dance around the room. When the music stops they have to run and stand on a cookie.

  • Who Took the Cookie from the Cookie Jar? - Teach the kids the song, “Who Took the Cookie from the Cookie Jar?” Have them sit in a circle around the birthday child and chant the words to the song.

Cookie Lollipop Birthday Party Favors

  • Send homemade cookie pops home with all the guests.
  • Purchase cookie lollipop sticks at a craft or baking store. Bake sugar cookies with the sticks in them using your favorite recipe or store bought dough.
  • When all the cookies have cooled use colored icing to write the age of the birthday child on the front of the lollipops.
  • Pass them out to the guests as they leave.
