I love everything about planning and throwing a birthday party! For our daughter’s 5th birthday she requested a Rapunzel party, based on the Disney movie Tangled. If you haven’t seen it, it’s super cute! Come along with me and see how you can throw your little princess a Rapunzel party too!
2. Save your ideas in a Word doc.
give in person by printing on card stock paper.
*We ended up watching 20 minutes of the Tangled movie at the end of the party.
OUTFIT:
Rapunzel Dress of course!
I bought this pattern on ebay:
and my mom made our daughter’s dress (I so wish I knew how to sew but I don’t). Isn’t it fabulous?
DECORATIONS:
Large Rapunzel Braid
Used two colors of yellow yard and grouped 3 sections of 12 pieces of 18 ft. strands. Tape down the top and braid. Tie a piece of purple ribbon to the end.
Used these “charms” for confetti for the table instead – printed on card stock paper.
&
(These were inspired by the movie’s lake scene where Flynn and Rapunzel are out on the boat watching the big lantern send off).
CAKE:
To label the bags, I simply added text to a Rapunzel image and added “Princess _____________” to the bags. Print onto cardstock paper, hole punch, and attach to bag with purple ribbon.
Each girl was blind folded and took turns trying to pin the braid on Rapunzel’s pretty head. I copied Rapunzel from this image found here on page 2.
The girls all walked with books on their head back and forth and whoever did it without dropping it won a prize.
I bought the Tangled Soundtrack online and the girls all danced to the music… when the music stopped they froze in place.
Jewelry
Princess Cards
Hair bows
Stickers
I thought this was a bit over-the-top for 5-year-olds. I’m not sure they would even enjoy it?

Rapunzel Paint Favor
(Pattern found here).
Tower Bean Bag Toss.
(Make a tower out of a large cardboard box and decorate like Rapunzel’s tower. Have the girls try and toss bean bags into the open window).
Rapunzel Hair Tug of War.
(I thought this might get a bit out of hand with 10 5-year-olds, lol).
TANGLED MOVIE:
We had about 20 minutes at the end of the party, so we turned on the Tangled movie:
