Jake had a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle party yesterday. Many friends and one classmate came. I think next year I'll just invite the whole damn class, since he invited 7 friends and only 1 showed up. Anyway, I didn't make near as much stuff this time as I usually do, owing to the fact there was a lot of mass market merch readily available in his chosen theme. I did make ninja masks and mutagen ooze* and I folded 5 origami ninja stars for a simple party game, but that was it. I also had temporary tattoos for everyone. I didn't take a lot of pictures, unfortunately.

Course, 10 minutes after they all got here they were huddled around the Kindle Fire playing Minecraft.

The ninja masks took a while to catch on, but once they did all the kids wanted them.

And the chair picture:

Of course, this is how most of them came out. LOL

*this was way more fun, and more successful than I imagined it would be. The ooze was a big hit as a favor with both the boys and the girls. I have plenty of borax and one bottle of glue left, so this will be a summer activity as well. How to located here.
