Bryson wanted a Panda birthday party this year. We ended up with a jungle theme, highlighting pandas. 19 kids were at the party a few too many in my opinion, but you live and learn.
We stared off with a matching baby animal names to their parents name worksheet. I thought the kids wouldn't really be interested in it, but they actually really had fun trying to match up things.
Next was pin the nose on the panda. With so many kids waiting your turn in line that long was a little too long.
We had a bean bad toss, which was feed the monkey the bannana. Super fun.
We had a jungle obstacle course. The first part you couldn't touch the water (blue tarp) second section the vines were poisonous. The third second you had to climb under the mesh net and not knock off the baby leopards or the mom would get mad. The record time was actually Landon for the the first round. This was a crowd favorite.
The other favorite was becoming an elephant and racing another elephant to see who could knock three cups over the quickest. I used tights with a tennis ball in the end as the trunk and the kids had to put their hands behind their backs while doing it.
We did presents, cake, and rainbow fruit kabobs which went well. The panda cupcakes told me they hated me and didn't really turn out, but everything else made up for it.
Our last game was jungle bingo. I looked for runts and couldn't find any so we had to settle for skittles. This was a great way to end the party.
Bryson really loved the party and I had fun getting it all together.
