Ninja Party Prep

Treyton celebrated his 5th birthday this year and three-days away before his Chuckee Cheese birthday celebration in the late morning and a birthday at home in the evening -- yes, all in one day-- I decided I wanted to put a little more effort this year. Here's what I did for kids goodie bags.

First, the invitation

I bought some ninja figurines at Party City, a set of 12 was about 5 bucks. Some fortune cookies and ball and jacks (my favorite game growing up!)

Jeff made about 30 of these origami Ninja stars from regular papers. I packaged them out with some mini markers for the kids to decorate their own ninja stars.

Then I bought a yard of white fabric from Joann's, 2 bucks, cut them up to make ninja head bands. I wrote each kid's name with fabric pen in Japanese (thank you Google Translations). I also made some for the adults for the evening party.

I bought these chinese takeout containers from my favorite Chinese restaurant, Que Viet, for 10 cents each (way cheaper than the Container store). The chopsticks were from Sun Food, an Asian grocery store, a buck fifty for 10 sets.

Voila!

So how did the party go?
