A Garden Tea Party



Young Alice is having a tea party and she's invited all her friends from Wonderland.
Won't you please join us?

The Cheshire Cat is on his way.

The White Rabbit is making his way through the flowers.

Daisy the Hedgehog has escaped the Red Queen's croquet game to join the fun!

Looks like the Caterpillar is already here!

"I think I'll try a biscuit," says Alice.

"Oh dear, I feel quite odd! Better have a sip of mint tea."

"Ah, that's better!"

We've saved some for you!
Just be sure to heed the old sign's warning...

"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!

Be sure to visit other Mad Tea Parties today!
