"Decorations: Dress the party space in rainbow colors and smiley faces -- two iconic images from the era. Activities: Pet rocks: A &amp;#039;70s party would not be complete without a nostalgic nod to the pet rock. Have the girls decorate large stones (available at gardening centers) with paints, googly eyes, glitter, yarn, and glue. Tie-dyed T-shirts: You&amp;#039;ll need:  White T-shirts or tank tops for each guest  Fabric dyes in a variety of colors  Extra large plastic tubs  Rubber bands  Wooden spoons   Help the girls tie knots in the shirts or make twists in the fabric and secure them with rubber bands. Follow the directions on the packets to mix the dyes using a separate container for each color. Dip a section of a T-shirt or use a spoon to submerge the entire garment in the color (or colors) of choice. Take the T-shirt out of the tub and rinse thoroughly with cold water. Remove the rubber bands. Hang the T-shirts on a clothesline or pop them in the dryer on low to dry during the party. Make sure to put each guest&amp;#039;s name on the tag on the inside of the shirt so you remember which shirt belongs to which guest. Birthday Cake: Tie-Dyed T-Shirt Cake This easy-to-make cake is the perfect accessory for your child&amp;#039;s birthday.  Cut a baked sheet cake into the shape of a T-shirt. Frost the cake with white icing. Drop dots of food coloring on the icing. Using a toothpick, swirl the food coloring into the icing to give the cake a tie-dyed look. Take a photograph of your child&amp;#039;s face and tape it to a Popsicle stick. Insert the Popsicle stick into the neck of the T-shirt cake to make it appear as if the birthday girl is wearing it.
