Note To Customers: Some John Deere Products listed in this party plan are from Hendren's John Deere Toy & Merchandise Store.  PartyShelf.com has no affiliation with this store but is sharing links with them to provide my visitors with the best party supply options on the Internet.  There will be a little "H" by Hendren's products. Other links are for Amazon.com. or my store for add-ons.  We currently don't carry this theme but have items that can be intermixed.  I have had many request for this theme over the years, so that is why I created this page. Have a great party!

Inside or out balloons are an easy and colorful way to decorate. At Hendren's you can get John Deere Logo Balloons H or mix them with yellow and green latex balloons and a few John Deere Mylar Balloons.

Add some John Deere Removable Wall Decorations to your party room. 

Create a corner barn area with our scene setters. Use plastic to cover floor or rug and tape down and then add some small straw bales. This makes a great photo op corner. 
Straw Bales for parties
Straw Bale

Bale will cover  approx. 125 sq ft.  Size: 18.5" x 10.5"

For outdoor parties, it's fun to pick up some bales of straw/hay to create a fun farm scene.  the bales can be used as a focal point for the party. They can be used for sitting on and playing games.   I created this scene pictured above (double click to enlarge) for a barnyard party, but it can also be used for John Deere theme.

 

A visit to a local farm with tractor pulled hay ride is fun too! Or maybe you have your own tractor and trailer to give rides on.

 

                                                 

Game Ideas

Pin the Wheel on the Tractor

 John Deere Fishing Game Matching Game

Enlarge a photo of tractor or cut out your own using construction paper. 

 

Leave off a large wheel.       Using black construction paper cut out several wheel shapes the same size as the one you just cut off.

 

The children try to place the tire  on the tractor, the closest tire to it's original position wins. You can use the removable poster mounts on the back of each tire or just tape. To identify which tire belongs to which kid, you could write their name in yellow glitter pen on each tire.

 

Includes 5 magnetic fish.

Has 5 electronic sounds.

Plays "D-E-E-R-E" song!

 

 

 

Using these playing cards select pairs for numbers 2-10 and a pair Jacks. Shuffle and then flip cards down in a 4x5 matrix on the table or floor with numbers face down. Each guest gets a turn at making a match of two cards by flipping them over. If they don't match they are flipped back to hide numbers.  Match the numbers and they win, but flip cards back over.  If a guest matches two Jacks "J" for John Deere, they win a special prize.  Guest have to try to remember what cards were flipped before.  Depending on the number of guests you may have to have two rounds, shuffle cards and replace them face down.
