'Mad Hatter's Tea Party' Fun for the Kids (and Parents, Too)

The popular annual event is scheduled Saturday, April 5.

The Mad Hatter’s Tea Party, an annual favorite, returns to the Cultural Arts Council of Douglasville/Douglas County on Saturday, April 5th with two sessions, from 10:30am- Noon and from 1:30-3:00pm.

This spring celebration for children and families is presented in partnership with the Douglas County Chapter of the American Business Women’s Association.

The Mad Hatter’s Tea Party is a fun and creative opportunity for children from 3 to 10 years old to have an interactive activity, based on Lewis Carroll’s classic, Alice in Wonderland. Tickets are $20 for the first child and accompanying adult; $10 for each additional child or additional adult.

Families will enjoy a round of flamingo croquet, sing-a-long music and storytelling sessions, an egg hunt, games and gift bags, the focal tea party lunch and a luncheon for the children’s parents and grandparents.

To encourage adult creativity as well, adults are encouraged to wear their best spring bonnets, and prizes will be awarded for the most creative and original hats worn. Children should bring baskets to collect their eggs.

The Cheshire Cat will wear a grin, the Mad Hatter will serve tea, and the White Rabbit will probably be late.
