And it was a success
The kids had a great time.
The whole party cost less than 50.00 dollars
They created their own "Goody" bags (Technically I didn't give out goody bags but you will see)
Then the boys built spaceships out of Legos and we took pictures.
Next was free time for them to all play in the basement. (They got to stomp on balloons)
Next up was target shooting. I drew Yoda on a large piece of cardboard, randomly picked names and then the child picked a body part (eg: Left ear) to shoot and they each got three tries. We use Nerf guns.
Onto the highlight of the party. The DeathStar pinata. Whew, it lasted until the very last child. It broke open and the kids went crazy. (The candy went into the goody bags)
The party was brought to a close with cake and ice cream.
2 1/2 hrs. 50 bucks. Yea!
