Angry Birds Birthday Party! Part 4

I can't believe this is taking me four posts!  Anyway, the kids had a blast with the games (covered in post 3) and the edible Angry Birds game (covered in post 2).  I don't think I have ever put so much effort into a birthday party before.

I didn't get any pictures of the food set up (I was just so busy working on everything that day).  But here was the line-up:

• Chicken Tenders (we were going to do Chicken Wings, but figured those would have been too messy)
• Boiled Eggs (I was going to deviled eggs, but glad I didn't.  The kids loved the eggs!)
• Pigs in a Blanket
• Bird Poop dip (recipe here) with graham crackers
• Bird Food (gummy worms and cheese puff balls)
• Veggie Tray 
• Bird Bath Punch (orange sherbet, Hawaiian punch, and ginger ale)

 For party favors, I used a few ideas I found online to create my own bags and favors:

• Solid colored bags using printable faces found online (printables found here)
• Golden Egg (plastic eggs on Oriental Trading Company)
• Filled with a few Angry Birds stickers (found sheets of them at Walmart and cut out individual birds and pigs to fit in the eggs)
• Scroll of Angry Birds cutouts (found here) with an egg shaped label with instructions
• To find the download link on the site linked above, just above the first picture is the following line: Download your very own Paper Angry Birds.  But Download is in a color that matches the background.  Hover your cursor over the blank spot where the word download should be and click.
• Good luck bird and pig made of pom poms, glass beads, wiggly eyes and felt
• Inspired by this blog
• Difference: I glue them on glass beads.  Years back I made good luck bugs for elementary students at a school I worked at.  By putting the glass bead on their bottoms, you can toss the bug any which way and they always landed on their "feet"  I took that concept and used it with the birds and pigs.

 

 Overall, Tristan's birthday was a success!  He was quite pleased with everything.
