So this year I talked the little man into doing the party outside of our house in the hopes I wouldn’t obsess so much about itJ. We chose a gymnastics facility…perfect for a bunch of boys to run, jump and bounce out their energy. Yehaw! No need to figure out games, just order pizza, bring cupcakes and call it good. They even provided a party favor! I tried to leave it at that, but there were too many fun possibilities, I had to do one of them!
For the goody bags, I attached Angry Bird faces to colored bags (free printables from Party Animal blog). I tossed around a couple ideas of what to put inside and decided to do a bag of 6 gumballs (played off the age 6 too, pure coincidence, happened to be what fit) with a note that said, “Hope you had a ball!”
I also gave each boy two Angry Bird coloring sheets (Cartoon Jr. ) and a bouncy ball. To seal the bag, I used a mailing label with a little note of thanks.
I know it would've been fine with just the gumballs or just the balloon and sucker provided by the gymnastics facility for that matter, but I love the creative process and the fun bags we ended up with. They made for great decoration on the table too. Multi-functional – LOVE IT!
I restrained myself from incorporating Angry Bird games into the gymnastics stuff. It was hard, but I held back and let it be fun on its own. And it was. The boys had a blast and only one bloody nose. Not badJ! Tomorrow I’ll tell you about the fun backyard slingshot game we did for the family party.
