Scatter on tables, cling on windows, etc...
- Use colored posterboard and draw characters to adorn walls... blue for Cookie Monster, orange for Zoe, red for Elmo, etc...

Activities
- Elmo's "I See Red" game (from Sesame Workshop!)
- You will need: assorted red objects, such as, apples, red socks, toy fire engine or red trucks, a red wagon, red ballcap, etc...
- Before the party, hide the red objects of different sizes in obvious and not-so-obvious places.
- At the party, tell your guests that Elmo needs help finding the red items in the room. Tell them how many red objects they will need to find.
