Have some (short) news!
Mother Seeking Pony Party Ideas!
Alrighty dudes, it's party time. You are now Pinkie Pie, and you have to throw a party for a little girl who knows all about the different between FiM and the old...stuff. Official g4 party supplies are limited, so you need to IMPROVISE.
Aside from:
Applejacks Bobbing for Apples
Pin the tail on the Rarity
Cupcakes
What else do you suggest for pony themed decoration/games/food? Drop it in the comments!

Tangled "Ever After" Banner Includes Rarity and Pinkie Pie?
This guy in the actual movie has an obsession with ponies, but they were never actually colored. It looks like the new one has some Pinkie Pie and Rarity snuck in.

Awesome :D
ReplyDeleteD'aaaaawesome!
ReplyDeletelol fluttershy
ReplyDeletei like looking at the fic spreadsheet, i feel so buisness-y when im reading it :3
For the party, a pony shaped cake always works! Maybe rainbow dash or something.
ReplyDeleteAlso a Gilda pinata, cause who doesn't want to beat her with a bat after what she did to Fluttershy?
aha i noticed the nightly riund up was place first then divergance story, y u messing up?
ReplyDeleteFluttershy could always just stare the hurricane down.
ReplyDeleteLet kids ice their own cupcake :D :D
ReplyDeleteHave a tea party!
Awesome picture. Indeed, this Washington state brony is hoping things are going okay for everypony over there!
ReplyDeleteParty ideas? Oh wow. Hmm. I'll just toss a couple of ideas out there; I'm the wrong gender and age to have any idea about what would be great or just dumb, but hopefully one of these will work, or maybe inspire something else.
- Cutie mark party hats. Just as the ponies all had ones with their marks on them for Pinkie Pie's party, have the kids make and decorate ones for themselves.
- Some sort of pony themed game perhaps, with a prize for the winner? Maybe a 'Find the Parasprites' game, whoever finds the most wins, or a pony themed scavenger hunt?
-
Hope everypony on the east cost makes it through ok :)
ReplyDeleteI think you'd need every weatherpony in Equestria and then some in order to redirect a hurricane like this.
ReplyDeleteShe could stop it, but Trollestia doesn't feel like it.
Curses! I've lost 40 bits today!
ReplyDeletePinkieQuesting around the Seattle market/convention area was fun.
ReplyDeleteI think that when Pinkie Pie accidentally the dance party was the best part though.
Yeah, we were having some technical issues earlier because of the hurricane. Hope everyone tries to stay safe.
ReplyDeletePony-themed decorations and games, huh? Well, you absolutely must have pony-themed treats of course. At least a pony cake. I believe I saw some FiM decorations too, think they were for Birthdays. But I can't remember where I saw them now. Some store along the lines of the dollar stores or such I think. you could make your own, but lots of work. Or buy the FiM balloons, and print out pictures of the ponies to put around and on things. As for games, hmm. Musical chairs to FiM songs? lol Not the best field for me I'm afraid.
Whats that? The Ursa Major went Super Saiyan? We're doomed!
I dunno, the two little unicorns he's playing with in that banner also look a lot like the two unicorns that are always pestering Charlie in "Charlie the Unicorn". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlie_the_Unicorn
Pinkie dance party?! I'm so there! Looks like it was fun. Love to dance.
And to Granny Smith being awesome in S2!
>getting hit by hurricane
ReplyDelete>Fluttershy
All of a sudden I feel a lot better.
About the party ideas...It can take some work but maybe drawings of ponies celebrating? Big 'Happy Birthday' banner with Luna and Celestia on both edges? Pony music is a must aswell :D Maybe some pony quiz? Hanging cutie marks, you know...like butterfly, gem, apple etc. (no, this is not cupcake fanfic). It's hard to come up with something if we don't know her preferences. Nevertheless I hope I helped at least a bit :)
ReplyDeletePony Party Ideas?
ReplyDeleteSing alongs with songs from the show. Seriously stay away from interrobang pie's songs. http://soundcloud.com/interrobang-pie/clopping-to-the-ponies
Don't paste it into your url.
@Overkillius then why did you post it D: curious pony is curious.
ReplyDeleteNothing really to report upon this morning it seems. The Q&A session on Reddit was pretty awesome though.
ReplyDeleteFor the party, make sure to have a few episodes playing on a tv in the backround
ReplyDeleteOh man! I LOVE Sinfest! I read it all the time! Fell behind though, like majorly. This is only more incentive to catch up.
ReplyDeletePony party ideas for little kids? Or for any pony fan for that matter... hmm.
Cutie Mark face painting.
Angel's Egg Hunt? Maybe not... we are heading more into fall.
Maybe a race, like The Running of the Leaves? If far enough into fall.
A pony themed game of Telephone. Like, use names and events from the show and horse terms. Maybe use the kids own made up pony names.
From the East Coast: We good. We've been through worse. Thanks John and Flutts!
ReplyDeleteAs to the party:
STREAMERS! LOTS OF STREAMERS! And cupcakes, and apple fritters, and confetti, and meat pies, andwaitasecond, Meat pies aren't exactly part material normally... Regular Pies then. No! CHOCOLATE PIES! With Pinkie's cutie mark on them! Oooo!
And a scroll from Princess Celestia saying Happy Birthday!
Now I'm no little girl, but that would make my day. I'd frame that.
Yay Supernova!!!!
ReplyDeleteA Scavenger Hunt will aid the party for the Cutiemark Crusaders.
ReplyDeleteDressing up as ponies MAY seem a tad out of reach, but you could try Rarity's Dressup.
Singing and dancing like Pinkie Pie will be great too.
Storytime with Twilight is also an option (although relatively boring to some).
Making pony cookies is a great idea too, simply make the dough and cut in their shapes... Than use icings to color the manes and such. Rarity is an easy example, with the violet mane and white coat.
No mention of the Israeli Bronies United group?
ReplyDeleteIT'S ANTISEMITISM,I SAY!
Aw, missed the Hoosier Brony meetup!
ReplyDeleteTho i would've been the only girl.
and 15. ._.
Um, they look more like the unicorns from Charlie The Unicorn.
ReplyDeletePinkie's not a unicorn, and Rarity doesn't have a purple coat. Are you drunk, Seth?
For that party thing, know those pocket pony cut-outs? Get some large ones of those and have them popping out from behind any furniture near the walls!
ReplyDelete>Also from East Coast
ReplyDeleteI <3 tropical storms/mini-canes. They're so much fun to watch. But then again, I just love rainstorms in general so whatevs lol.
Yeah you'd need like all of cloudsdale led by Dash and the Bolts to fix this mess.
Also, woot, Noho bronies! Member of the herd reportin' in.
The Pinkiequest rave was beautiful news.
ReplyDeleteAnother party idea would be, if you've a few computers and the kids are old enough ya think to handle it well, maybe set up Generalzoi's pony creator on them so they can make their own ponies. Print 'em out or somethin' maybe.
ReplyDeleteD'awww...thanks Fluttershy, but the storm's already passed, and we're all fine here. Was pretty fun though.
ReplyDeleteHmmm....I guess I would play snip its of sound track and see if she could guess the episode.
1st picture the definition of cute
ReplyDeleteApple jack- bobbing for apples
ReplyDeletePinkie Pie- cupcakes (as long as they haven't read it)
Twilight Sparkle-Fim trivia
Rainbow dash- races and other sport games
Flutershy- petting zoo
Rarity- Making candy brace lets
Pin the tale on the pony
Party ideas, party ideas...hmm...
ReplyDeleteWhat if you gave them a blank template of a pony body outline, and had them draw in the mane and tail? Create your own pony! Get some glitter crayons, they'll love those.
Cookie and cupcake decorating is always fun.
Find some neat old clothes (check your closets or even a thrift store) and have Rarity's Dress-up Boutique?
If the weather's nice, get some sidewalk chalk and turn 'em loose in your driveway (if you have one).
I suppose it depends on the actual age group, too. But when I was a little filly (and the sun was going doww-own...*cough*) I usually enjoyed things that bolstered my creativity and gave me some freedom.
I bet Granny Smith is the one who kicks Discord's ass.
ReplyDeleteWith the Tangled Rarity/Pinkie pie thing.. Pinkie pie doesn't have a horn.. Right?
ReplyDeleteI'm bad at party planning! So tips from me.
ReplyDeleteAnd I really really wonder if the Tangled Ever After poster features Pinkie and Rarity, but might be a coincidence.
No tips* curse you, simplified brain!
ReplyDeleteHello, Massachusetts Brony here, we are currently experiencing the start of this wild whether due to the power that kept flickering on and off, it;s crazy over here though but we're still doing fine, thanks for worrying about us east coast bronys everypony. Lol if only Rainbow Dash were here to teach Irene a lesson.
ReplyDeleteI live on the east coast. its not that bad.
ReplyDeleteAs for the party idea, yes! There must be streamers and BALLOONS! Even better if there are two that are blue and one that's yellow! Also, a pony themed cake's a nice touch!
ReplyDeleteWho blew-up my star!? Was it Trixie!? I told her not to even try astrological magic!
ReplyDeleteSEIZURE PONIES!!! That has made my day.
ReplyDeleteThat is until I got to the Pinkie rave. I love her randomness.
Party idea:
ReplyDeleteOn the Hasbro site ( http://www.hasbro.com/ ) there's a sweet Find The Differences game. There are 20 images with 5 differences each. The best would be to sit all the party goers in a semi-circle on the floor in front of a screen on a table or desk. The music and the animations when you make a choice are very nice. This activity will take at least 30 minutes, even with a half dozen eagle-eyes telling you where to click. An alternative would be to screen-cap all twenty images and print them out (in color!), but the images do not enlarge well.
Party idea p.s.:
ReplyDeleteSmores.
Hurricane moved TWICE. My mind is officially blown.
ReplyDeleteParty idea. Cupcakes. Shaped like Rainbow Dash.
ReplyDeletePower went out for a total of 20 hours here.
ReplyDeleteAfter breakfast today me and my family went out looking at the damage and flooding. It was pretty cool.
East coast pony checking in:
ReplyDeletethings aren't too bad, was just a class 1 hurricane; some downed branches and power out in places. Mine is still up and running, didnt even flicker. LAST years hurricane and tornados were MUCH worse, (8 days no power ) so yeah, we got off pretty easy this time. Don't go worrying about us!
The star in Ursa Major is Twilight finally gaining enough power to kick its ass.
ReplyDeleteOr maybe God blew himself up.
Wait im a hoosier! meetup?! this cannot be!
ReplyDeleteFluttershy totally stared that hurricane down. Why else would it have downgraded?
ReplyDeleteCertainly not because it hit land. No, not ever.
The Ursa Major tried to go all Mama Bear, but Twilight Sparkle put it in its place.
ReplyDeleteTwilight is now most badass pony.
YES! It was totally Twilight that caused the supernova. Let's go with that.
ReplyDeleteUpdate from MA, only had a minor power surge so far (only my PC shut down on me lol). The stream behind my apartment is starting to overflow but I'm elevated so no worries there. Other than that, it's not bad at all. Rain will come down in SHEETS for like 15 mins then nothing for 15 mins. Been like that all day.
Thanks for the love and concern, EqD bronies. YOu all rock!
It's just matter of time for someone to actually make a serious secret world domination pony cult..
ReplyDeleteParty game:
ReplyDeleteDash's rainbow rally!
set-up is easy, get some ribbon (in rainbow colours) then criss-cross them along a path. you can use everything from chairs to climbing frames to hold your ribbons up! ( a loop of tape will let you use a wall) (masking tape along the ground lets you mark out a zig-zag path)
How to play:
somepony gets blindfolded and its up to everypony else to help them get through and retrieve the sweets without touching the rainbows.
when a child makes it through they get to give everypony (including themselves) a sweet (I recommend one penny sweets - no idea what the're called in the US)
group size: 10 - 4
everypony gets to go through, and its up to all the others to get them through
group size: 20 - 11
Pair up, one pony goes through the rally while the other has to guide them to the finish - cheering is encouraged from the others (after all their sweets are on the line!)
group size: 30 - 21
one pony goes through then you get two guide ponies
but I have an odd number of ponies! simply add them to existing pairs - resist the temptation to play yourself!
(any remaining ribbon can be used for streamers!)
hope that helps!
I recently threw a pony birthday party for my friend and I gathered up some rocks, a little bag of flour, some lint, and a bowl of radishes. I then made little party hats for them and placed them around the table. I also put lots of coloring sheets around the room.
ReplyDeleteNo problems over at the coast guys! We have our own weather team ready to help if things get a bit rough, but we'll probably be juuuuust fine!
ReplyDeleteSARSPARILLA FOR THE PARTY!
ReplyDeleteOk Fluttershy i be safe for you
ReplyDelete@Ian: THIS! So much this!
ReplyDeleteNear-coastal NJ checking in. Skies are looking pretty clear now, minimal damage if any here. Most areas in the state seem to still have power, though a town near Philadelphia is down. Haven't been out to survey the damage yet, but no downed trees/branches/lines that you can see from my house.
ReplyDeleteThe Tangled banner seems more like a reference to Charlie the Unicorn.
ReplyDeleteParty game:
ReplyDeletePinkies cupcake catastrophe!
WARNING: MESSY! - flour gets EVERYWHERE!
Oh no! somepony has forgotten to make the cupcakes! well there's nothing for it, its not a party without the cupcakes; everypony is just gonna have to pitch in!
Set-up:
Place a collection of cupcake ingredients at one end of the garden - paper plates with a small amount of flour/sugar. (try and put out as many as possible the more times each pony gets to go round the better)
at the other end of the garden place a table with a mixing bowl, you will need a minimum of two adults one at each end to give and receive (what's left of) the ingredients!
How to play:
the idea is to carry the plates of flour from one end to the other - (going under a ribbon and turning around in a circle make great obstacles), before handing them off to the adult chef pony!
everypony should go at once, if there is not enough room send them down in groups of about 5, its chaos and silliness your looking for!
sounds too easy? well silly filly, ponies don't have hands! so all your budding little helpers are gonna have to balance the paper plates on their heads if they want any cupcakes!
Remember to encourage them to keep going, even if there is nothing left on the plate at the end!
if they are being "overly sensible" feel free to yell they only have "3 minutes left!"
Flour and sugar are used because it is no problem for your fillies clothes and hair - most of it will be gone by the time they go home!
but, wherever they go that afternoon there will be a trail of flour! its polite to give the guests parents a heads up, as they may want to bring something to cover their car seat with!
>Buy blind bag fluttershy
ReplyDelete>Customize
>Profit! o.O
Maine cheeking in for the hurricane: well a lot of rain you get soaked sticking your hand out the window.
ReplyDeleteOh c'mon, no one cared when Ike, Rita, or Katrina hit us. Everyone dry yet? Cool.
ReplyDelete@Carly
ReplyDeleteNo, we had a female Brony named Sierra there; but she'd left before I took the picture.
PARTY IDEA: Musical chairs to pony songs.
ReplyDeleteIt can't possibly fail
Another update...
ReplyDeleteStorm seems to have cleared up (for now?). Saw a squirrel hop out of a tree and I realized... that squirrel was in the tree for the whole storm, wind, rain, and all.
I suddenly have more respect for woodland critters. *flutteryay*
Also that Pinkiequest rave totally deserves its own post!
ReplyDeleteRainbow Dash- your mission, should you choose to accept it, is this;
ReplyDeleteThe next time a hurricane shows up, you and a large team of weather ponies are to build it into a class 3 at LEAST, and move it to the Gulf Coast. Especially the Texas coast.
I was just in that hurricane. Just some heavy wind and occasional falling branches up here in Mass. It did knock out my power, though. But only for a few hours.
ReplyDeleteTo mom planning party:
ReplyDeleteThe official website has a party planning page found here:
http://www.hasbro.com/mylittlepony/en_US/play/details.cfm?guid=16a8cb60-5056-900b-10d8-55224b373ea9
Otherwise, some bakeries now have the new mlp cake kits, so I would shop around as much as I can.
If Jayson Thiessen says Granny Smith is awesome in S2, it must be true!
ReplyDeleteActually,I had fun turning off all the lights in m y house and watching the hurricane while moshing to this song
ReplyDeletehttp://youtu.be/Txtkw_IgYgg
Cutie Mark Cupcakes for the party, as well as decorations nearly identical to the Summer Sun Celebration.
ReplyDeleteAlso, people need to stop hatin' on the old generations. Not only did they inspire the new series, they have some really good designs (even if the cartoon was shit)
Very thoughtful of you Fluttershy
ReplyDeleteHoly crap at the price on that Fluttershy. It's nice, but damn.
ReplyDeleteAs for party ideas (hopefully this isn't too late):
-Cutie-Mark shirts/bandanas/paintings (sponge painting would work well for a lot of ages, or older kids could just use acrylics/fabric paint and stencils)
-See if there's a local baker for the cake, try it yourself, or get a generic "hillside" background from the local supermarket bakery and add the smallest figures (blind bags if they have them in your area or just the standard ones, those things are tiny compared to previous generations)
-Dress Up/Fashion Show (hang up the Rarity Logo, play the fashion show song, etc)
-Unicorn Tag (blunted horn (think paper towel tube) to tag each other, or just pony tag with grabbing tails out of pockets/waistband (like flag football))
-Make/decorate cupcakes as part of the party instead of a cake (or in addition to a small cake)
-Don't know how old the kids are, but if they can write, you could have them do scrolls like in the show with a nice message to the birthday girl and put them in a scrapbook with the mane cast picture in the front (like in the opening). Could do the cover like the book in the first episode (even though that's technically a different book)
-Pinkie Pie charades/Simon Says (could use some voice clip of her as stop/go, or video clips for the kids to mimic for simon says (hoping/twitching/gasping/etc) (easy to queue up on a laptop hooked to a tv or just the laptop, or you could just call it Pinkie Pie, lol c: )
-Horseshoes (they make cheap sets, or I'm sure somewhere like Family Fun has make your own substitues)
ReplyDelete-Three Legged Race/Sack Race/etc (sort of like the episode where Rainbow Dash has to race without her wings)
-"Spa" (painting nails etc) - Rarity takes the other ponies to the spa once or twice
-Cutie Mark Crusaders Chicken Hunt (hide a stuffed chicken somewhere and they have to find it, possibly using clues depending on age)
-If the other guests are familiar with the show/ponies, you could put a pony on each player's forehead and have them guess each other
Party idea: Pinkie Pie's jam/CMC theme?
ReplyDeleteJeez, I've said this before, but I'll say it again.
ReplyDeleteA picture of a pony DOES NOT mean a MLP:FiM refence.
It seems pretty obvious that the Tangled thing is NOT a reference, why would Pinkie Pie have a horn? it doesn't even seem worth mentioning in the Nightly Roundup.
Other news was cool too.
I wish MY mom would throw ME a MLP birthday!
@B-Man
ReplyDeleteThis would do nicely
"Northampton, MA Brony Meetup"
