After visiting Michelle and loving her theme parties we decided to give it a try. We even invited some friends over to enjoy our party. Our first theme was Construction! We had trouble finding construction hats but the kids didn't mind wearing the camouflage ones! We started with a lesson in tools. We pulled out different tools and talked about how they work. Then, we learned how to use a hammer and drove some nails into boards.
Next we played the coolest game ever--Grease Rag Tag. Each child has a Grease rag (or a nice clean one) in their back pocket. Then, whoever is it runs around trying to collect all of the rags. It was great fun but was interrupted by necessary water breaks--this heat is killing our fun!
Then, we had lunch and did some constructing with marshmallows and pretzel sticks. We learned that the larger marshmallows worked best!
After lunch they did construction with Lincoln Logs and worked on the roads on "Matville" using their construction vehicles. It was a great success and will definitely become part of our routine!
