    We had the party yesterday! it went great better than I expected, we had 15 kids everyone bought a book or two wrapped in all kinds of wrapping paper, we wrote down all the names of the kids in a piece of paper and pulled each name out of the hat and they came up to pick out a book.... The kids and Moms loved the idea...My girls ended up with about 5 books..
    I would definetly do it again.. plus their preschool teacher thought it was an excellent idea.

    It's like a three in one! It's a game for the kids, a party favor and gift all in one! I love it...

    Oooh, what a great idea! Did you ask them to bring a book in lieu of a birthday present?

    SO did you add 2 books to the starting collection (for your girls?) and how did they end up with 5? Seems everyone would end up with 1 each?
    Where these all used books like a trade or new books?
