Opinions needed please! Matt's real birthday is tomorrow (NOT MY BABY!) but we will not be having his party until two weeks because my Dh has a really tight work schedule until then...anyway....So tell me what you think of my ideas for the party. Remember all the parents know it is a star wars party and these are all kids that play star wars with Matthew. There will be about 20 to 25 kids so I want to keep them busy.
When the guests first arrive they will be given a name tag that says "padawan Matthew" or whatever their name is. They will be taken to a life size stand up of Darth Vader and take a picture...these will later be used as thank you cards. We will eat first. We are having "Lava dogs", "Naboo Nachos", "sith Salsa", and "yoda sodas" after everyone has eaten the kids will be told that to become Jedi Knights they must complete three tasks. They will be split into two teams and one team "land spaceships" this will be done by trying to throw a hovercraft frisbee into the middle of some hoola hoops. The other team will play a game called "protect the ambassador" We have a blowup punching bag and an adult will shoot nerf darts while the child tries to block the shots with their body.
We will then take a break for cake. (no not the one I wrote about..lol)
For the last task, all the kids except for Matthew will be led down a trail. There will be an adult to wait with the kids and Dh and I will put dry ice on both sides of the trail and wet it so that it makes "fog." When the kids come thru the fog, one at a time they will find Matthew waiting for them on the other side dressed as darth vader! lol
After all the kids are done we will have a graduation ceremony where they receive a certificate and their goody bag.
So what do you think!
