Calling all Superheroes!

William requested a Superhero birthday party this year for his birthday.


We started off by all the kids coloring Spiderman pages...

Once all the kids got there, I explained to them the the SuperVillain was trying to destroy the party, and I was going to equip them to defeat him. Their first avenue of defense was their capes. I hate custom capes made for all the kiddos with their initial on the back.

As soon as they got their capes, the Villain arrived and dumped a bunch of "birthday bombs" (black balloons). Their mission was to defuse the bombs by stomping on them.

Their next avenue of defense was their superhero bracelets (Iron Man silly bandz). I had them do some warm ups to get ready to fight, if the time should come that the villain attacked again. Below is musical "chairs" complete with Superhero music.

About the time they finished musical chairs, the Villain arrived again, this time to drop kryptonite all over the floor! The kids had to use special thongs to pick them up and put them in a Hazardous Material bin:

Their final defense was Web Slinger (Silly string). We headed outside, in case the Villain were to try to get us there.

As they all gathered in the backyard, awaiting the Villain, they saw this:
 and then the Villain jumped down from the roof, and the kids attacked:

After they defeated the Villain, we headed inside for Cake and ice cream.



 and of course, presents!

It was such a fun party, and William said it was exactly what he was hoping for!
