We had a great time chasing villains, shooting off bottle water rockets, eating cake and candy and being Super Heroes!
Here are what all the capes and power bracelets looked like:
Everyone had their first initial on the cape (S,P, B,T,I,Z,D and the little bib/capes: M AND G)
The power bracelets had white squares we let each child design and color their own power amulets in with fabric markers.
Inside the goodie-bag we had lots of candy! Superhero masks were also included.
These were my favorite favors, I think. I found the idea
here.

There were lots of creative superhero poses throughout the day. These are just a few I caught on film.

Attacking the White-haired Villain |
Then the real fun began! My parents had created this water bottle launcher for their scout troop and volunteered to let us use it. I think the kids enjoyed this more than anything else.
Even when it launched the bottles onto the roof!

What a cool sky to fight crime under!!! |
Once we'd played and got thoroughly wet, we came inside to discover a terrible villain had kidnapped all the superhero suckers and stuck them in the lava! T was particularly disturbed by this.
He kept asking what the villain looked like and how I knew it was a villain. Of course I
made up gave him the best description of the villain I could, but that wasn't enough. T decided this is what the villain must have looked like:
We then sang to the birthday boy and ate plenty of Tres Leches cake disguised as a Spiderman cake!
What a great way to end such a fun-filled day!
