Tea Party


Welcome to Tea Party and dress up week. We will be exploring the age old tradition of little girls acting like big girls by dressing up and talking a lot. The picture above was taken in 1909. It does not look that different than some of the tea parties my daughter threw when she was a little girl. I was always amazed at how complicated they were, and how many details were included in the set up. If I remember right, tea parties were just about the favorite thing to do for her and her friends. She is twenty now, so that was some time ago. So, I wonder, do little girls still throw elaborate tea parties.
