So, we had a problem of our own which required a group of super readers to help! I read the boys a story about Logan's birthday party which was all ready except his birthday sign was missing it's letters. (meanwhile, Ryan was hiding 20 letters around the house). The boys quickly dispersed to each find 4 letters and bring them back to the kitchen. Afterwards, they helped us match the missing letters to the poster which then read, Happy Birthday Logan!!
Next, they each got to draw on a canvas bag with fabric markers to decorate their own library bag. Meanwhile, they could snack on ABC crackers. As they finished, they could move into the family room where there were a variety of toys, games and puzzles that all had to do with the alphabet.
The highlight of the party was cake, of course. Logan picked a sprinkle cake which we decorated with alphabet letters and his prized Super WHY toy. Logan did not see the cake before his party and his reaction was priceless! He put his hands over his mouth as he squealed with excitement, "A SUPER WHY CAKE!"
After the boys were all loaded with sugar, they went to the basement where Ryan had put out a dozen balloons (which he lovingly wrote the entire alphabet on EACH balloon) for them to play with.
Overall, it was a great party and most importantly, the birthday boy himself seemed to have a SUPER time!
