Madagascar crazy!!!

I had another opportunity through Crowdtap to host a party to get excited for the release of Madagascar 3!! Becca LOVED the first movie so I was excited to watch the second movie at the party.  It was such a good time.  We had 4 girls her age that were able to make it and we partied it up. 

I made masks from the party kit Crowdtap provided and got some pink wigs to supplement their looks. 




I played the first Madagascar movie in the background as people arrived and we ate elephant and lion shaped pancakes. The girls watched a lot of the movie through their masks.


I planned a lot of outdoor water games since it was HOT here.  After we ate we all moved outside to play in the sprinkler.  They had a good time pretending to be different animals running through the sprinkler and performing their "circus tricks" while everyone watched.  It was a great way to cool off.


Next we pulled out water balloons and tried to see how long they could toss them back and forth without dropping them (not long :) ).  It was so fun to watch and there was tons of giggling. The winning team got small prizes to take home.




Next we played pin the tail on Gloria.  I was a little worried that this game would be too hard for them but they did so well and we ended up taking second and third turns.  They were blindfolded, spun 3 times and faced to the wall.  I think the hardest part was keeping them pointed toward the wall. They had to be redirected a few times. :)















Here's the end result.  We had some deviations, but they all made it on the wall.

Next we dried off and went inside for dessert.  I had made tie dye cupcakes and zebra cake.  It got very quiet after they were passed out so I think they girls enjoyed it.




All in all it was a great day and everyone left full, happy and exhausted!  Thanks again Crowdtap!!
