So how about throwing a fancy fete in your store? To help you host the<br />
ultimate fancy soirée, we present to you this <strong>Fancy</strong> <strong>Nancy</strong> Event <strong>Kit</strong>, full of<br />
in-store event ideas and reproducible activities, including special name tags<br />

Step 2: Preparations must<br />
be made!<br />
A soirée with <strong>Nancy</strong> has to be spectacular. Here are some ideas<br />
to make sure that your event is the fanciest party of the year!<br />
• Bonjour my name is . . . Print out the name tags and bookplates provided. This way the<br />
girls will know each other’s name and can personalize their own copies of <strong>Fancy</strong> <strong>Nancy</strong>. Just<br />
print them out on Avery Laser 6874 (3” x 3 3 ⁄4”) labels for the perfect party giveaway.<br />
• Stand up straight! Proper posture is an important part of being fancy. But a girl can’t<br />
practice with a book and wear a tiara at the same time. The obvious solution is to use a<br />
banana instead. Have attendees balance bananas on their heads while walking around the<br />
store. (It doesn’t hurt to teach them to wave like the Queen while practicing being proper.)<br />
• Ribbons and bows! One bookseller or volunteer should arrive not dressed fancy. With ribbons<br />
and self-adhesive bows, the girls at the event can transform this plain girl into a fancy girl!<br />
• Pinkies out! Cookies with a hole in the middle are perfect for snacking—and for practicing<br />
eating with your pinky out, as <strong>Nancy</strong> suggests. Hand out cookies and show the girls how<br />
to use the cookie as a pinky ring. Serve juice and show them how to drink with their proper<br />
pinkies out.<br />
• Fuchsia is the new black! Fuchsia (that’s a fancy word<br />
for purple) is <strong>Nancy</strong>’s all-time favorite color. Give the girls<br />
purple pens and crayons for writing on their name tags,<br />
bookplates, and working on their activities.<br />
• Decorations are a must! Decorate your store with pink and<br />
purple ribbons and glittery streamers. And remember: A party<br />
space can never be too fancy!<br />
• Get busy! In the following pages you will find fun activities for<br />
your guests to complete at the party or take home as party favors.<br />
Make sure you have plenty of markers, crayons, and colored pencils<br />
on hand.<br />
Step 3: Enjoy the soirée and celebrate the <strong>Fancy</strong> <strong>Nancy</strong> in you!<br />
