MY LITTLE PONY PARTY GAMES
Friendship bracelets
What better way to start the party than to make friendship bracelets. The ponies are all about friendship bonding, so each participant can make a bracelet for another party friend. The easiest friendship bracelet to make is one using pony beads (easily found at any dollar store or you can find great deals on Amazon) in different colors and colored knitting yarn. First, each person asks the friend they are making the bracelet for what their favorite colors are. After the colors are chosen, each child is given 10 beads in five different colors. Each person is also given five 12" strands of yarn in different colors. (A good way for knitters and crocheters to get rid of some of their scrap yarn.) Ten beads are strung on each length of yarn and a knot is made on both sides of the beaded portion of the yarn. The beads should be centered on the 12" strands. Then the bracelet is tied on the friend's arm and the result is so pretty!
