We had a party for Sarah's birthday on Saturday. She wanted a "Bugs and Butterfly Birthday". We made the invitations last week and gave them to everyone in the class. Since it was memorial Day weekend, only 4 could come from the class, but we also invited a family from church that has 6 kids plus one on the way. So it was a nice sized party.
The first activity I had planned was to let the kids decorate cupcakes however they wanted.
Then, we pretended that some of the kids were caterpillars and we wrapped them up in toilet paper like a cacoon.
Then we had a "bug hunt" on the trampoline where I had put toy bugs in balloons and blew them up . I filled the trampoline with balloons (We have an enclosed trampoline, so the balloons didn't blow away). The kids had to bounce around on the trampoline and find the balloons with bugs in them, then pop them. They loved that, but it was soooo hot that the balloons were popping on their own every few minutes.
Lastly, we had a pinata with tons of candy.
Marshmallow spiders made out of toasted coconut marshmallows and crunchy chowmein noodles.
Gummy worms in apples.
