First Communion THEME |
 |
When parents get home after that first Communion its traditional to throw a small party for the child. Since the Communion occurs at an age when the child is still fairly young its best to have something of a dual party with elements for the adults and for the kids. There are plenty of kids party ideas that can work to entertain the adult friends and family who come over after the Communion to offer congratulations.
The first Communion services can occur at any time but they usually are fit into the morning hours during or after the church services. This means that the Communion will be ending just in time to have a brunch party. A brunch buffet filled with lots of fruit, eggs, bacon and other goodies will satisfy the empty stomachs of your adult guests. Kids will also love these breakfast treats. You can add a fun kid’s theme to the party with themed plates, napkins, cups, tablecloths and other kinds of decorations.
Sesame Street is a very educational television show and there are plenty of party supplies available this show as a theme for your communion party. For younger kids a party with the theme of Dora the Explorer is a great choice. If you want a theme geared more towards boys how about a Bob the Builder set of party supplies or a series of construction themed party supplies.
Kids and adults both love to get party favors and some great party favors for a first Communion party can also be divided into gifts for adults and for kids. If you choose to throw a Bob the Builder themed brunch try giving the kids small building block kits or hard hats and plastic shovels. The adults can get white candles with candle holders or small religious themed placeholders or bookmarks.

HANDMADE
PARTY SUPPLIES |
 |
Homemade party supplies such as gift cards, gift baskets and place cards are a great way to celebrate a child’s First Communion. A child's First Communion is a very important time for most families. Therefore, having a variety of homemade party supplies such as handmade banners, streamers and other party goods available is important. Preparing a guest list and creating homemade First Communion place cards should take precedent over other activities, but this small homemade touch will be well received by most of your guests. A First Communion can be an exciting time for a family and having place cards for your guests will make it more special. Preparing and placing homemade place cards on the table for your First Communion guests will create a warm feeling among family and friends. Handmade place cards is a simple touch, but will make guests feel very welcomed at the child’s First Communion.
Before making homemade place cards and other party supplies for the First Communion, create your guest list. Then, decide how each individual place card for the First Communion will be designed. Decorating the place cards can be quite simple with just a name and small design. Regardless of the handmade party supplies that are used, most people find the First Communion of a child very special.
First Communion invitations come in a wide variety of styles, often with gold or silver foil embellishments, embossed printing and ribbon or lace bows. Make sure you mail them well in advance, preferably at least 3 weeks before the event.

First Communion Cake Ideas
First Communion cakes are a one of a kind opportunity to showcase a child’s relationship with religion. Simplicity is usually the best way to create a first communion cake. Other party supplies and decorations should follow suit.
Create a smooth two tier cake that is circular in shape. Ice it with a thin layer of white icing and then cover it with fondant. The key to this cake is fondant because it gives it a smooth finish.
Where the layers connect, add in silver edible spheres. Be sure to place them right next to each other so there is no space in between them. Once the connected layer is done, be sure to line the bottom as well. This is time consuming but very much worth the effort.
On the top layer, pipe the circumference of the cake. When finished, add some edible glitter or dust to the top piped icing. This will give it a shimmer look like the silver balls but it will be a different addition and look to the cake. This will set up for the highlight of the cake; the cake topper.
Place an edible or non-edible cross at the very top of the cake for a cake topper. You can also personalize the cake by having the child’s name somewhere on the cake.

First Communion Party Music Play Lists
A First Communion music list is sometimes hard to assemble but the below song list selection will get your mind cranking on the right way to go. As one of the most important party supplies on your list, the playlist for a First Communion should be assembled carefully.
We Come to You – C. Alexander Peloquin
I Want to Walk as a Child of Light – Kathleen Thomerson
Taste and See – James Moore
Eat This Bread – Jacques Berthier
Song of the Body of Christ – David Haas
Take the Bread, Children – Carl Schalk

The above are religious songs, however, there are some other songs that would be fun to have to get the kids moving such as the Chicken Dance and the Cha Cha Slide. Fun and energetic songs will be a great way to get the kids having fun together.
