Invitations:
The best idea for a Wonka invitation would be to wrap a chocolate bar in colored paper, print or write Wonka Bar on it and print the information onto a gold piece of paper to slip inside the bar. Don't want to make your own? You can purchase the customized wrappers and golden tickets @ www.custompartyplace.com

from the hardware store.
Candy Shoppe:
This is a great idea if you have the room to set up a candy shop. You can use a pantry, closet, tent, playhouse or small area of your home, or even a baker's rack will do. Place a sign above or on the door saying Candy Shoppe and stack the shelves or bins with assorted candy, candy apples, gum, chocolate, etc. Label each one with a price sticker or put up price signs. Wonka Bucks (play money-see page 25) can be used. Give each child some play money or have them earn it through winning games and allow them to purchase the goodies in the shop.
Decor:
Hang garland with lollipops or candies attached. Hang purple, gold and black streamers. Attach candy dots to the tablecloth with icing. Turn colored plastic plates inside out and glue or tape to each other back to back to form an M & M candy. Write M & M's onto them. Make flowers out of colored craft foam or tissue paper and hang around the house. Flowers are also good to attach to skewers and place them into a small pot of jelly beans for table decor. Decorate the plates with giant Hershey's Kisses (in stores during Valentine's Day or Easter). Punch balloons are great to have lying around for kids to play with. They look like giant gumballs. Make several wrapped lollipops, candies, and chocolate bars and place around the house. (instructions shown above) Wrap pool noodles with red and white streamers to resemble candy canes and place around the house. (instructions shown above)

Fill kiddie pool with cotton candy or popcorn. Purchase pinwheels from the dollar store to place in your garden or along the walkway as colorful candy spinners. Use a kiddie pool as a chocolate river by filling it with chocolate milk or colored water. (green and red food coloring) Cocoa added to the water will work as well. Get creative and add a small fountain tho the water to have it moving and scent the room with chocolate. If indoors, you may want to use a brown blanket to resemble the chocolate in the pool. This is great for the fishing game. Use top hats as snack bowls (found at party stores). Hang streamers across the driveway like a grand opening ribbon. Hang candy canes or candy sticks around the house. If you have a bubble machine, this is fun to have going either in the yard or outside the front door to set the mood for the guests. Purchase a pinata in either a flower shape for your candy garden theme or buy a round paper mache ball and paint it to resemble a gumball or gobstopper. These are always a hit. Fill baskets, vases or cups with candy and create a centerpiece using candy sticks, giant lollipops and Wonka candy. These can be won as a prize. Cut out the word Wonka in purple and black in large letters and hang from the ceiling (letters on page 19). Make a jellybean wreath out of construction paper and attach jellybeans with icing or glue and hang. Hang a Wonka contract for the kids to sign. Print or write the Wonka contract (available at www.custompartyplace.com) or simply 'I promise to be a kid, act like a kid and eat all the candy my little heart desires and have everyone sign it as they arrive. You can tape it to a door and tape an erasable marker-writing board underneath the contract to hold the marker in place. Purchase peppermint balloons (found in party stores or ebay) and hang. Print out character pictures and attach them to the chairs or around the room. Print out Wonka coloring placemats and put some crayons on the table. This is a good ice breaker and something for the kids to do while waiting for the guests to arrive.

Set up a red carpet or make one out of a blanket or red construction paper as a grand front door entrance. If you have a gumball machine, this would be great to have up for fun or as a decoration. Purchase some plastic purple loot bags or clear ones at the Dollar Store. Print out a Wonka topper that says, I survived (name of child) Birthday Party Attach chocolate coins to your trees or the twig branches if using them for the candy cane sticks. Hook your video camera up to the TV so when the kids walk by the , they can see themselves on the TV. WONKAVISION- They will love this! Purchase a green wig, orange face paint (optional), crazy sunglasses, an orange t-shirt with white masking tape criss-crossed in the front to resemble an Oompa Loompa, black pants, a top hat and cane, black or purple jacket, etc. to set up a photo prop station. Play Wonka or candy themed music in the background. Good candy songs: Lollipop, Sugar, Sugar, My Boy Lollipop, or magical songs are also good, such as a lot of the Disney songs. Set up a play tent or playhouse and decorate it as the Oompa Loompa's house. Insert candies into clear balloons. Print out labels for bubbles, candy bars, candies prizes etc. Line the bottom of the walls with craft/packing paper rolls or wrapping paper and paint or draw candies onto them to decorate the room. If you only have a few children attending, name tags of the movie characters would be great for each child to be. Giant popcorn bowls. Purchase giant plastic bowls from the party store and hang one handle onto the door knob so it's tipped and the other bowl underneath it so when it's filled with popcorn, it looks like it's overflowing. Hang character prints around the room.
Lollipop Cone:
Purchase a large styrofoam cone shape from the craft store or dollar store and poke several lollipops into the cone to look like a lollipop tree. Great centerpiece idea.
Add a floating baby (sold in the baby shower section of the dollar store). If you cannot find them, you can substitute it with anything that floats. (ie. blueberries) The first person to finish drinking their chocolate milk and sinks Augustus (the baby), wins.

Purchase little baggies in the dollar store. Choose 5-10 flavors of Jelly Bellies for each bag. Make sure you write them all down. Each person has to eat them and write down what they think the flavors are. The first person to get them all or the most right wins the game. GREAT FOR ADULTS as well.
Candy Face:
Cover several small candies on a paper plate with whipped cream. Give one plate to each person. On GO, the first person to uncover all of their candies from their plate without using their hands, wins the game.
Wonka Trivia:
Everyone likes a bit of trivia. You can use these 25 questions and answers. You can print out each sheet for each guest and the first one to answer all or most of the questions right wins a prize. GREAT FOR ADULTS. Questions & Answers are listed on page 28.
Gobstopper Throw:
This game is simply just setting up a large bucket or bowl and purchasing colored balls to represent gobstoppers OR simply use actual gobstoppers. Each child will take a turn trying to throw the ball/gobstopper into the bucket. The child with the most wins gets a prize.

Fill a paper cup up with water or juice for each child. Top each one with a blueberry and give a straw for each one. At the count of 3, each child must sip the drink through their straw until the liquid is gone. The first person to sink the blueberry to the bottom of the cup by drinking it the fastest wins a prize.
Balloon Pop:
This is a simple and quick game of filling balloons with little pieces of paper stating different prizes or several ' try agains' and one winner. The person that pops the winning balloon claims the corresponding prize.
Burping Contest:
The person with the loudest, longest or most burps in a certain time frame wins a prize. This is a great and hilarious game to be played after drinking the fizzy lifting soda drinks. Be sure to have your video cameras rolling!

Gather the kids into 2 teams. Each team must take turns putting on a t-shirt, blowing up a balloon, crawling through a tunnel, touching the wall, crawling back through the tunnel, popping the balloon, removing t-shirt. The fist team to get all its members through the course wins a prize. GREAT FOR ADULTS.
pop a balloon of their choice and the one that finds the winning paper wins.

CANDYLAND GAME:
A quite activity would be to play the Candyland board game or replicate it in life sized pieces. Activities: ALL OF THESE ARE GREAT IF YOU HAVE A WONKA INVENTING ROOM SET UP IN YOUR HOME OR WOULD RATHER ACTIVITIES INSTEAD OF GAMES.
licorice strings, you can purchase elastic string at dollar stores in the sewing section.

Edible Clay:
Recipe:1/3 cup margarine OR 1 c peanut butter 1/3 cup light corn syrup* 1 c corn syrup 1/2 teaspoon salt* *** 1 1/4 c powdered sugar 1 tablespoon vanilla extract*** 1 1/4 c powdered milk 2 pounds confectioners* sugar Food coloring****MIX ALL INGREDIENTS TOGETHER FOR A DOUGHY CONSISTENCY and let the kids make their creations.
Chocolat e Paintings:
Give each child some paper or coloring pages and paintbrushes. Let them dip their paintbrushes into the melted chocolate and paint their pages. To melt chocolate, use 1/2 c of vegetable oil to every 4 cups of chocolate chips to thin out the consistency and to prevent burning the chocolate while melting.
Lickable Bowties:
1 6
Cut out some paper bowties and attached sticky velcro to the backs of each one. Melt Jolly Ranchers (45 sec per candy in the microwave) or any hard candy into liquid and allow the children to paint it on the bowties with a paintbrush. When they are dry and harden, velcro them on the kids shirts. Also great to sell in the candy shop!
Food &Drinks:
Fizzy Lifting Drink-Soda with mentos or pop rocks to fizz. Giant Popcorn bowls. Pool full of cotton candy. Sprite with cubes of jello. Never melting ice cream cones-the marshmallow stuffed cones you buy in the party store. Candy apples. Chocolate fountain with cut up fruit, marshmallows, cookies, etc. If you don't have one, you can melt some chocolate in a fondue or small melting pot with a candle and allow the kids to dip their fruit into. Chocolate dipped marshmallow skewers. Soft candy skewers. Bouquet of fruit skewers. Attach skewers into a foam piece inserted into a bowl.
Cake Ideas:
The easiest cake idea for this theme party would be an edible scanned image of the movie onto the cake. This can be done at your supermarket that sells cakes. Another idea would be to simply decorate the whole cake with candy. You can also have a tiered stand with cupcakes instead of cake with Wonka cupcake wrappers on
each one or if you want to get really creative, you can decorate the cake with green icing to resemble grass, pour warm chocolate pudding down the middle or warm chocolate icing to form a river and decorate the sides of the cake with lollipops. If you can find a small boat, this would be great in the river (you can even make one out of colored paper) You can also use a gummy bear as the driver or print out a small picture of Willy Wonka and glue him in the boat . If you are really creative, you can mould a lot of characters, mushrooms, candy trees, etc. by using fondant or marzipan to form them. Candles that would look great would be the colored swirl ones sold at most Dollar Stores. You can place them to look like candy trees. Another neat cake idea would be to make a round cake, decorate it like a lollipop with icing swirls and add a paper towel tube, wrapping paper tube, or flat piece of cardboard to the bottom to look like a lollipop.
