INDOOR PICNIC
This is a nice party to give during Christmas week, when the Christmas greens are still up, and you have so many new toys that you want to show your friends. For this party you will need evergreens, an old covering like a “drugget” for the floor, large baskets, wooden plates, and refreshments such as you have at a picnic.
Before the children come, fill the baskets with sandwiches, devilled eggs, cookies, fruit, and cake, and whatever else you like to take when you go on a picnic.
Trim the playroom with greens, and cover the floor, so the picnic won’t hurt it. When your guests arrive, you can play outdoor games, just as if you were at a real picnic. When it is time for refreshments, the children can help you bring in the baskets, and can set the table in true picnic style. Instead of a pitcher of water, use a pail and dipper, and if you have lemonade, that should be in a pail, too.
You will find that an indoor picnic is a great deal of fun.
