The after school party.
Friends and cousins and siblings. After school in the park. Chips and dip and fruit. Parcel the pass. The 'balloon pop' game. Running, climbing, sliding, wrestling. Cupcakes decorated by the whole family before school. Balloons. Party blowers. Lots of Lego.
The night-time party.
His best friend came for dinner. Tents and trampolines, torches and sparklers. Barbecue dinner. Toasted marshmallows on the fire. The worm cake.
The morning tea.
Nanny, Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Jon, Nanny Marjie and Kevin. So much love for this little boy. It was so nice, sitting around the large table enjoying more cake and chit-chat.
The actual day. Today.
Birthday presents, phone calls and his favourite dinner tonight...Taco's.
And the biggest birthday hugs from his proud mummy.

'Balloon Pop' Game
I'm sure you already know it. I am just adding a list here, as I am new to party games, maybe you are too?
You put the message in the balloon and blow it up. At the party get the kids to sit in a circle and pass the balloon, one at a time, around the circle. When the music stops, the person holding the balloon must burst it. Then act out the message.
Walk like a duck
Roar like a dinosaur
Act like a monkey
Make your self into the letter T
Show us your best dance moves
Make the silliest face you can
Flap your wings and fly like a bird
Sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and then do a bow
Do five star jumps on the spot
Hop around the circle
Pretend you are a tree blowing in the wind
Be a fish
Love the balloon game! What a great party. x
ReplyDeleteI remember the balloon pop game, we used to do it when we were younger! I did this for Jess's birthday when she was about 8, they had soooooo much fun with this...Do you remember how hard it is for a little girl to sit down on a ballon to pop it...Lots of Screams and Squeals....and laughter...:)
