| Carly's apartment by decorating with lots of paper | | | | fun! Add a veggie tray and an array of chips and |
| lanterns and strings of lights! Make some homemade | | | | tacos and call it a smorgasbord! The cast is always |
| posters with saying like "You're a Star", "I Heart | | | | munching on something new so keep your eyes and |
| iCarly" and "Welcome to the Web Show!" Have loads | | | | ears open for new ideas. Perhaps at dessert time |

| where all the kids can chill out. Wouldn't this work | | | | print out the iCarly logo. You can easily find one by |
| great as an after school party since the gang always | | | | using Google images and then adjusting to your size |
| heads over to Carly's after school or even as a | | | | requirements. Laminate the logo and cut the plastic to |
| sleepover since Sam is always sleeping over at | | | | shape. Using a cake of any size or flavor, simply place |
| Carly's? | | | | the laminated logo onto the cake with plenty of |

| your computer to a web cam or simply pull out your | | | | use some bright colored icing for decorating - Carly |
| video camera and tripod. Lay out some furniture | | | | does nothing white or bland! |
| similar to the iCarly set and have the party guests | | | | Loot Bags: Here are some crazy options - so have |
| figure out their own show. You can have props | | | | fun with it! Funky Notepads & Pens (between |
| ready like guitars, microphones, funny hats and | | | | school and the show Carly is always working on |
| clothes. Keep the mugs of water and tissue close in | | | | something) Crazy Socks (is it just me or is Spencer |
| case anyone gets too emotional! The guests can | | | | always wearing weird socks?), Yo Yo's (these |
| perform a dance, sing a song, tell a joke, perform a | | | | gadgets are always showing up in sculptures and in |
| stunt or tell a story. Check out the web casts on for | | | | the shows yoyoathons), Junk food (Sam loves her |
| inspiration. If coming up with ideas is difficult, you | | | | chips and chocolate bars but Freddie's Mom would |
| have the option to put several 'idea cards' in a hat | | | | defiantly disapprove), a homemade mix CD (we |
| and have each guest pick one before their camera | | | | know how the gang loves their music & |
| time. Topics and Ideas like "What is your favourite | | | | dancing), a Magic Ball toy or key chain (always |
| Food and Why", a Silly String fight, a Yo Yo | | | | consulting the ball, Magic Meatball that is), Silly Putty |
| competition or something crazy like bobbing for | | | | egg or container of Play dough (you never know |
| apples or a pie eating contest. Encourage the kids to | | | | when the urge to make a unique sculpture like |
| be Creative and Funny! To make sure everyone has | | | | Spencer will hit you!) |
| a good time, you should rotate roles of host(Carly), | | | | I hope these ideas help and just remember to think |
| producer(Freddie) and co-host(Sam). Remember to | | | | outside the box for an iCarly party! The kids will love |
| record every moment! When everyone has had their | | | | all the effort you put in! |
