A fun family tradition that we’ve done for many years past is to host a cookie decorating party. Although we usually think of cookie decorating as a Christmas thing, there is no reason why you can’t do this any time of year! The only thing to change from season to season is the shape of the cookies and maybe the colors you. We’ve had a blast hosting cookie decorating in every season, but it’s the most fun over the winter holidays.

This guide to hosting a cookie decorating party will cover all the basics so you can do this fun activity whenever you’re in the mood!

Note: You can make this as COVID happy as you want. The pictures are only to show how it’s worked in the past.

How to Host a Cookie Decorating Party

The key to hosting a cookie decorating party is to keep your expectations realistic. What you will expect from a group of preschoolers is different from what you will expect from a group of middle schoolers. And another important tip: While you want to make sure the decorating area (e.g. table) is clean, I would NOT recommend cleaning the rest of your house in advance of this activity. Trust me, you’ll need to vacuum/sweep/mop at the end!

Invite friends

The first important step is to invite friends to come decorate cookies. To know how many to invite, consider how much room you have. We can fit about 8 comfortably around our table, but you can also set up card tables or use other work surfaces if you have the space. You want everyone to have enough room.

Consider the ages of the kids you’ll be inviting. It’s fine to have a wide range, but just consider that younger kids may need more adult supervision than older kids, so make sure you have enough adults coming as well.

You can invite friends with an official in-the-mail invitation, or just send a group text!

Make the cookies

Once you know how many people are coming, it’s time to make some cookies. I always make rolled sugar cookies, and this recipe as written makes about 60 normal-sized cookies.
