22nd September 2013 Jamal's 10th birthday Jamal was turning 10. For me this was a huge milestone party... my first child reaching double figures:) We decided since he loved making things and experimenting we would design a Mad Scientist Party. There was a children's market coming up in the holidays so we saved up and went to the market knowing we would find lots of experimental kits. We came home with a car full of things and its didn't cost much at all. I ordered off the internet some Test Tubes, Beakers and Petri Dishes from a science shop. A lovely lady we know gave us lab coats, protective footwear and lots of gloves. Invitation Guests arriving Jamal's best friends came to the party. They loved being greeted by Jamal and being given lab coats, protective footwear, safety glasses and personalised name tags. Name Badges, I didn't add actual photos as they had the kids last names on them. We used the periodic table to personalise and make each name tag different from each other. A great learning tool. Each name tag was pinned to their lab coat. Then the Fun begins.... lots of Experiments! First we started by making Lava Cups. These were great and actually worked :) They reminded me of the old Lava lamps you used to buy. We had so much fun making Elephant Toothpaste. While the rain stopped for a brief moment we made the most of some experiments outside. First Mentos and Coke Geysers then we made some Smoke Drums A short video clip of two of the Mentos and Coke Geysers going off :) Smoke Drums Smoke Drums were made with regular garden buckets. I cut out a hole in the bottom and covered the top with shower caps. The experiment I found on the internet used a shower curtain but shower caps fitted perfectly and were only $1.00 for three. The buckets were filled with smoke from our smoke machine. When the kids tapped the shower cap rings of smoke came out. The smoke was strong enough to knock paper cups of the table. So much fun they were lining up for more smoke :) Another indoor experiment with Dry Ice. The place we got local ice from wasn't open in the weekends. We brought 5kg (thankfully they gave us a lot extra). When we got home Friday night it weighed just over 8kg, by Saturday night we had lost over 3kg. We were very lucky to have lots left for fun on Sunday at the party. The kids made exploding gloves. They put a few pieces of dry ice in a glove and knotted it, put it in a warm bowl of water. After a few mintues the glove had expanded and was huge, after a few minutes there was a huge bang! They also put dry ice in a bowl, rubbed dish liquid around the edge of the bowl and pulled a small rag over the bowl, huge dry ice bubbles formed. Potato and Lemon Clocks Next was Potato and Lemon clocks. We split into two teams and one made a clock out of Potatoes and one out of Lemons. Both clocks were a working success. Lastly Tornado in a bottle using a tornado tube, two empty bottles, water, dish liquid and some food colouring Food I love planning party food using a theme. We had green slime cupcakes, Popping candy in test tubes, Pizza Particles, Molecule Cookies, Atoms (Chocolate Lollies), Radio Active Jelly in Petri Dishes, Bacteria bites (Mini Savouries), Laboratory Mice, Brains and lots more. We used dry ice in the drinks and in beakers and test tubes to give off a real science feeling. The kids especially loved the dry ice :) Delicious Mad Scientist Cake A few extra family photos Brothers - Leroy & Austin Birthday Boy - Jamal Jamal and Dad Jamal and Mum Little scientist sister Willow Loot Bags This year we found bubbles shaped like science bottles.

Can you believe my little girl is 4???? Oh my goodness, where does the time go? When I asked her what kind of birthday party she wanted, it is no surprise Megan said she wanted a candy party. Healthy eating can be such a bore sometimes. Besides, a candy party sounded totally adorable so I was more than happy to oblige. Here is the lollipop invitation I made . . . I totally copied was inspired by an invitation created by Cherry Blossom Way on etsy. I steal some of my best ideas from etsy. Totally cute and totally simple to do. My next task was to plan the cake. Megan said she wanted a topsy turvy, whimsical cake (and yes, she actually used the word "whimsical." We spend a lot of time watching cake shows together.) Everything on the cake was edible except for the lollipop sticks. It was a classic white cake with vanilla buttercream filling, coated in chocolate ganache and covered with marshmallow fondant. Megan loved it! She also really liked the dessert/candy buffet. It seemed to be a big hit with the under 10 crowd!!!! Info on how to make the tissue paper pom poms is here. My mom made the adorable table runner for the table. These little cupcake treats are made from cake balls and melted chocolate. I used chocolate cake and cream cheese icing and they were delicious. For instructions on how to make them, check out Bakerella here. Some sugar cookies with royal icing . . . yum! I decorated the outside too. Welcome to Candyland . . . Info on how to make the lollipop decorations is here. I made a little sign for the front door. I decorated the backyard with some more lollipops and these cute little candies in the trees. To make them, I just covered sturdy paper plates with tissue paper, then wrapped them in gift wrap cellophane and tied ribbons on the ends. I punched a hole in them and looped some ribbon to hang them. The night before the party, Megan and Brendan spent the night at my mom's house so John and I could put things together for the party. Here they are arriving the day of the party . . . I love how even Brendan is smiling at the idea of a party full of candy. The looks on the faces of the girls was priceless! And we can just help ourselves to whatever we want? YEP! Megan's lollipop dress came from here. We played Pin the Cherry on the Ice Cream Cone, a game idea I stole from my friend Heather's party, only she used a cupcake. Thanks for the great idea Heather! The face painting station was a big hit with the kiddos. And Aunt Laura too! We played "hot potato" only I called it "pass the gumball" to go with the theme. I played a candy mix CD that John created from songs we found on i-tunes and when the music stopped, whoever was holding the gumball was "out" and had to go eat a piece of candy. I think the kids really enjoyed themselves . . . Then we opened gifts and had cake and ice cream. We really appreciated the thought that went into choosing gifts so perfect for her. She really is blessed by wonderful family and friends. And since I determined that the 14403958233 milligrams of sugar the kids had so far wasn't quite enough, we clobbered the heck out of this pinata (found at Hobby Lobby) for even more candy. Fun!!!!! And here is Nana . . . she taught my baby how to hold his own bottle. He didn't get any candy but seemed to have a great time anyway. We sent all the kids packing with a treat bag loaded with . . . more candy, a CD of the candy music that played at the party and of course . . . A TOOTHBRUSH!!!!
