A superhero birthday party for Zach

Zach wanted to have a superhero party to celebrate his birthday. We kept it pretty simple and had 5 of his friends from church. The superhero theme was pretty easy; we focused our activities around a superhero training camp.

 The first activity was create your own weapon, Captain America style. Everyone decorated their own shield using a template I found online.

We used the finished shields to knock over a tower of stacked cups.

Then we headed outside for Spiderman web practice (using cans of silly string). The cans were a little hard for 4-5 yr.olds to operate, but with a little help it worked out. 


We made a tower of boxes and the kids took turns doing the Hulk smash (with an inflatable Hulk punch glove).
In the patio the kids practiced their skills on a training obstacle course (created by Anwyn): ball catching, shooting, jumping, balancing, etc.

 We had a simple lunch of PBJ sandwiches, pretzels, cheese cubes, and strawberries. Then we headed outside to blow bubble using Superman Super breath.
And finished things off with presents and cupcakes.
It was a really fun party, and we are thankful that Zach has such a great group of friends to share the day with!
