We had a transformer birthday party for Alex today and the kids had a great time. When they first got here they were given a transformer mask that I made out of craft foam. I printed a black and white picture of a transformer and traced all the pieces on the foam. Then I added some elastic cord to make the mask. Maddy the transformer. Alex really wanted to play "Transformer, Transformer, Decepticon" (just like Duck, Duck, Goose) It was quite humorous to watch some of the kids who have never played before. We had to defeat the Decepticons a.k.a. pop the balloons! Gracie the transformer. Alex the transformer. Two of the transformers got into a little "scuffle" Benjamin the transformer. We went on a picture treasure hunt for the Allspark. I took pictures of each location and then cut them into puzzles. Each time they found the clue they had to come back to "home base" and put the puzzle together to find out what the next location was. On the lookout for the Allspark. Samuel the transformer! All the transformers with the Allspark! Cougar the transformer! This is the awesome cake I made! It looks exactly (*wink, wink*) like Optimus Prime. Right? Here he is getting ready to make a wish and blow out the candles. It was a little windy so we had to light the candles in the house and have him stand in the doorway to blow them out! Here is a shot of most of the kids that came to the party. We had 18 kids and 11 adults. He got lots of presents! Lots of transformer toys and some Legos. A really cool football toy and a remote control car. He is definitely a very happy boy tonight!
O tema de festa Pokémon Go é um dos temas preferidos dos meninos. O tema ganhou mais destaque nos últimos tempos depois do lançamento do filme e também do jogo.

Let's have a Minecraft birthday party! Minecraft is a creative world game. The player breaks blocks and places new blocks in a three-dimensional environment.
For my daughter's 8th birthday party she wanted a Webkinz party. Of course, there are no decorations or party games for this theme, so we made our own! We started out by surfing the web. We looked on http://www.birthdaypartyideas.com/ as well as other blogger's posts and got a few ideas . We made a sign for our front door to welcome our guests. We made a list of what we wanted to do at the party and then made a "Today's Activities" list just like they have on Webkinz World. For the games that we played where there would be a winner, we gave $2 KinzCash to the winner and $1 KinzCash to everyone who played. At the end of the party there was a grand prize for the girl with the most Kinz Cash. I bought a Lil Kinz on sale for this prize! The Kinz Cash was made from a website I found online. I made $1 and $2 amounts and just combined them if I needed to give anyone a larger amount (for the Wheel of Wow) For Operation Gumball, we had a jar of gumballs and the girls had to guess the number of gumballs in the jar. The girl with the closest guess got to have the gumball jar as a prize. My daughter stenciled the names of the girls onto goody bags so that the girls could decorate them as they arrived. This was a nice, quiet activity to start off the party. The next activity on our list was the "Gem Hunt", just like the kids do in Webkinz World. For our gem hunt, I sent the kids on a treasure hunt to look for the gems they needed to make their pets a "Bowl of Wonder". Each clue was hidden around the house with one of my daughter's Webkinz. When they found the treasure, each girl received a bag with one each of 5 different coloured gems just like Arte has for the Crown of Wonder - red, blue, white, green and yellow. I bought acryllic jewels from Michael's and had the girls use white glue to stick them onto the bowls I had found. On the inside of the bowl, I had written "Bowl of Wonder" and made some webkinz stickers of the Webkinz logo. These took awhile to dry which is why we did it at the beginning of the party. The next activity was a spin on the Wheel of Wow. I found a small lazy susan at Value Village and cut out a circle of cardboard that was the same size as the lazy susan. I made my Wheel of Wow with similar colours as the one on Webkinz World. For the prizes I had KinzCash as well as RingPops, pink applesauce for Pink Gak, Webkinz Bookmarks and I made pink tutus out of hair elastics and pink tulle. For the random prizes, I just used craft kits that I had purchased at major discounts at Michael's. You could also use dollar store finds like crazy straws, candy, notebooks, pencils, lip gloss - anything girly. Next was the Rock, Paper, Scissors Tournament. I split the girls into groups of two. They played Rock, Paper, Scissors and the winners from this round played eachother and then the winners from the next round played eachother until there was one winner. They got $2 KinzCash for winning and everyone else got $1 KinzCash. Our next activity was Wacky Bingoz. I made up my own Bingo Cards with cartoon webkinz on them. The winner received $2 and everyone else got $1. The girls loved this game. They wanted to play again, but it actually took a long time with 10 girls playing! The next activity was Zingoz Pop. I wrote the names of prizes the girls would receive on a piece of paper and put them into balloons, which I then blew up. The prizes were a Webkinz figure or a pack of Webkinz cards. I told each girl to grab a balloon and try to pop it. When they popped it, they brought the piece of paper to me and I gave them their prize. This was a fun game and was over very quickly. The girls loved their prizes and added them to their goody bags. After this we played Quizzy's Corner. You probably can't read the questions I used, but I took some from the questions on Series 3 Webkinz cards. Others I just made from different things on Webkinz World. The girl who got the most right answers got $2 KinzCash and everyone else got $1. They actually had a tough time with some of the answers and I would probably make the questions easier next time. The birthday girl got to open her gifts next. We had everyone sit in a circle and she spun a bottle to see whose gift she got to open first. After gifts we did Chef's Challenge, which was dinner. We had pizza and then had cake. I am not a cake decorator, but I try my best. I but plastic wrap over top of an image I printed online of my daughter's favorite webkinz, the whimsy dragon. I ouline it with icing and then filled it in with icing. I put another layer of plastic wrap on top and made sure the icing filled all the air bubbles in. I then froze the image in the freezer. When it was frozen, I peeled the plastic wrap off and put it on top of the iced cake. Voila, a Whimsy Dragon Webkinz cake! After dinner and cake, I let the girls take another spin on the Wheel of Wow. They then counted up their money to see who won the grand prize of a Lil Kinz. For Candy Bash, I just handed out little candy bags I had made up for their goody bags. It was then time to log out of Webkinz World and the parents arrived to pick up their girls! This party was a blast, and I hope I've given you some ideas if you want to throw a Webkinz party of your own. Some photos of the other decorations we made. We saved the cartoon photos of the webkinz from Webkinz World and then printed them off for decorations. We colored them in ourselves. This was something my daughter could do to help out with her party.

For Alex's 5th birthday party, she requested to have a slumber party. I explained that we will not be having any extra children sleep over our house until the 4 children that currently live here
Liam is into bush craft and survival stuff. Big time. He's never happier than when he's outside building fires and shelters and practising his skills. Or inside creating survival kits or organising and re-organising his pack and gear. He had a Man vs Wild birthday party last year and wanted the same sort of thing again this year. So I got my thinking cap on and tried to come up with some activities that would push them a bit and make them work as a team. It was actually trickier than I thought to come up with a plan! Here is what I ended up with.. 1. The first thing they had to do was fill a pack with essential items. I hid a whole lot of things that they took turns to try and find, once they had found something they had to take it back to the team and decide if it needed to go into the pack or not. They were only allowed 10 items so there were a few tough decisions to make as to what to leave out. 2. Collecting water - they had to transfer water from the bucket down the line to the container using only their hands. They had to really concentrate and work as a team to make sure they didn't loose it all on the way. Once the container was full it had to be carried during the next activities, if the container touched the ground I told them I would tip it out and they would have to start again! 3. Keeping a flame going and target practise - They had to hit down targets using whatever they could find lying around whilst keeping a candle alight. If the candle went out they had to stop and relight the candle before carrying on with the targets. (They had chosen matches as one of their pack items). I was amazed at their ingenious idea of holding the tealight - they wrapped a piece of bamboo bark tightly into a roll and sat the tealight in the top. Apparently something they had seen on youtube :). 4. They had to find a hidden bottle and then they could transfer their water into it. It still was not allowed to touch the ground so they had to tie the water bottle to their pack... but they were only allowed to use one hand each! It was hilarious, their two hands kept sneaking in there without them even realising. It took major brain focus and team work to get it done. 5. One of the team members (Liam) injured his foot so they had to bandage it (fortunately they had chosen a bandage to include in their pack) and they had to support him through the next challenges so that his foot stayed off the ground. 6. Collecting food - there were bags of food hidden around the place that they had to collect up as they did their activities and put into their backpack. They also had to try and pick up popcorn kernels while wearing giant leather gloves. (They had chosen and empty container as one of their backpack items so they used it to hold the popcorn). When they lit their fire they would have to cook the popcorn over the fire. The food items they ended up with: Salami sticks - (giant worms) Potato chips - (pigs ears) Cheese - (pig fat) Raisins - (rabbit poo) Marshmallows - (fungus) Biltong - (dried camel) Oranges with grated chocolate - (dirty oranges) Bananas - (found growing on a 'banana' tree) Chocolate pieces (dirt - to put with the bananas) Apple juice in jars - (urine) Then they had to get a fire going and cook all the food using only items that they had chosen to put in their backpack and sticks and wood from their surroundings. They cooked the bananas with chocolate stuffed inside. Cooked the popcorn in a pot they had in their pack. Melted the pieces of cheese in tinfoil and roasted the marshmallows on sticks. It was quite a feast in the end! And they did an awesome job of getting a good fire going. They were rewarded with chocolate birthday cake to finish. (Same recipe as last year which is grain free and refined sugar free - I make only half a recipe and replace the honey with less maple syrup/coconut sugar. And I make up my own frosting recipe). And then to make sure that they were well and truly worn out we finished the day with some speedy downhill luge racing!
