Teddy Bear Picnic Invitations
Start the fun with adorable personalised invitations. A teddy bear design introduces the party theme and gets the children ready for an outdoors adventure. Don't forget to include all the important details, like the time and location. You could also remind the kids to bring their favourite teddy bear along to the picnic.

Decorations
No picnic is complete without a traditional red and white gingham blanket! The pattern will give any party a classic picnic feel, and it can always be reused for family picnics in the future. Add a wicker basket packed with treats, set up some stuffed bears and child-friendly cutlery, and you're ready to welcome the guests. For larger parties, you can serve food up in individual bags rather than putting them inside the basket. Our party bags and stickers are perfect for this!
