Benji's Birthday, part 3: A Half-Blood Party

Benji asked for a Percy Jackson and The Olympians-themed birthday party this year, and we were happy to oblige.  The preparations:

Enter and be claimed as a demigod

Blue Candy buffet

Blue food (this is an inside joke from the books)

Poseidon cake

Training schedule: Sort by Cabin (cake walk); Quest for the Golden Fleece (scavenger hunt)l Make ocean slime; Slay the Minotaur (pinata); Capture the flag; Medusa freeze tag

Forgot to add this to the training schedule

 

Treasure maps

Set up to make slime

The kids had a good time and all of the activities went well:

Second map

The girls were a big help with the prize table

And that's a wrap
