We did a Cinco de Mayo theme a couple years ago. We served tacos/taco salads and decorated with red, green, yellow, etc. We had our parents donate all the supplies to make the tacos(coordinated with the room parents) and we also got donations of desserts and beverages.

Check out www.orientaltrading.com or www.shindigz.com or www.partycheap.com

All three companies have great fiesta items. Shopping with shindigz can be quite expensive.

Does your PTO ever ask parents to donate food for appreciation luncheons? We ask parents to donate side dishes and desserts, and the PTO pays for everything else.

Just have great food and great decorations and you won't go wrong! Have fun!

I'm in charge of staff appreciation at our school and am thinking ahead to May. I'd like to do a luncheon and am thinking of a mexican fiesta.

Does anyone have any experience or ideas to share on this theme?

Thanks!
