In my previous post below, Tanner snuck into his bday gifts early and found the Batman suit
which he obviously hasn't wanted to take off for days. I used to be so embarrassed going to stores with him dressed in silly attire. Now I think it is hilarious and just smile back at the people that laugh with me, and just smile back at the people who glare!!
Tanner has been wishy washy in wanting a
pirate party, or
scooby doo party, or
Batman party...and even a
Star wars party.
Well, we obviously decided to go with the Batman theme since it sounded fun.
This is how you pull off a cheap Batman themed party
the night before!!
Stay up super late and cut black polyester material (that you bought earlier that day)into strips, for the kids batman capes.
Find free clip art on-line and make copies.Use as decor.
Fill your decorated goodie bags with appropriate themed toys such as Batman socks, pens, stickers, dry erase boards, and fruit snack packs.
Cut out the cardboard batmans from the snack packs to use in an upcoming game.
Punch out batman logos from the pen package, then
Wake up early enough to finish preparations and as you eat your eggs for bfast, cut out batman masks from your black card stock. Add ribbon to sides and tie around kid batman heads.
Color your frosting so it matches batman's colors.Finish arranging the decor, go shower, and enjoy the day!! ________________________________
