Party number 1: Invention party

Do you like inventing cool inventions? Well then you'll LOVE this party! It has cool craft ideas and activities. From making robot snacks to making your own inventions...This party has it all!

Ages 4-12. Number of kids: 3-10. Length: 2-3 hours.
Activities:
1. Make an invention:
Take everyday things and make them into cool inventions! Some of the best things would be ribbon, silverware, paper, hangers, and towels. I even made a cool doll for my little sister, Owa, out of a hanger, some Mr. Potato head parts and doll clothes! It was really fun. My brother, Bubber, even made a clothing tree! You can use anything you want for your inventions! Have fun inventing!
2. Dress like a robot:
Dress in your most robot-like clothes for the party(a robot COSTUME would be perfect!). Some good things to wear would be gray or black shirts with buttons on them, black or gray jeans, gray or white socks, and white or black sneakers. If you have a robot costume, put that on instead.
3. Make robot stories:
Make up robot stories and share them with friends!

Snacks:
1. Cracker robots:
Take three crackers and stack them on top of each other. Slather peanut butter all around the stack of crackers. After you put the peanut butter on the stack of crackers, put four small pretzel sticks in the corners at the bottom of the stack. Put raisins on top of the stack for eyes. Stick two more pretzel sticks on the sides as arms. Now it's ready to eat!

Have a fun party!
