Superheroes and Villains
My little Zackman is
going to be six next week! Last year I
didn’t blog so I wanted to make a post about his party last year because it was
way to fun to be forgotten! He was
really into lego batman on xbox and that gave me the idea to have a superheroes
and villains party! Whenever we have a
party in our house the whole family gets involved and we go all out! Sadly I was so into the party this year I
didn’t take pictures of all the fun things we did!
The week before the party
we prepped all of the party decorations.
My husband watches the old Batman show with the kids which made these
decorations fun! I ordered vintage
villain masks on www.ebay.com these masks
were decoration. We also used them in
our scavenger hunt coming up! I
downloaded my printables from www.etsy.com
love etsy!
After we prepped the decorations my mother in law and I made capes for each child with their initial
on the back superman style! These capes
were actually very easy to make and the kids loved them!!! We just bought felt in different colors. We cut them out and tried them on our boys
for measurements (we are very professional
like that haha) After we cut them we added a Velcro
closure on the neck. I printed out a logo on cardstock then traced it on felt. We cut out the
superman shaped logo and hot glued it all together. Finally I cut out each initial and glued
around it all with glitter glue. My
mother in law sewed a stitch around the logos to finish them off!
We had a
craft table set up for the kids to make their own masks. We also had a table set up with an activity
for them to pick a superhero name based on their personality.
We had
superhero music and a fog machine going as well. After the initial activities it was time for
Superhero training camp!
The kids had
to do everything a superhero might have to do...crawling, rolling, jumping, climbing, flying and
running. We practiced all of our moves
to make sure we were ready for our mission!
Next was our
mission.
We got a
letter from the major stating that the villains had stolen all of the money
from the city bank! It was our job as
superheroes to get the money back!
Beware! The villains are ready to
fight!
We went on a
scavenger hunt to find the money. Along
the way each villain came out (Abbie, Allie and friends wearing the vintage villain masks) and threw an Easter egg at them with a clue inside. The final clue led us to jokers playhouse
which was a room filled with balloons and joker was hiding inside with the bags
of money. There were so many balloons
the kids couldn’t see the joker hiding and he jumped out and threw the money at
them! It was fantastic! I was the Joker so sadly we don’t have any
pictures.
We ended our
day with mighty munchies a batman pinata and superhero cupcakes.
It was such a
fun day this little superhero was worn out!
I can’t wait for our star wars party this year.
I would love to hear your comments and thoughts! :)
Now that the weather is starting to get nice out this would be a fun summer sensory activitiy!
