I Can Make the Bad Guys Good for the Weekend


Quinn wanted a villains themed birthday party this year.  I loved the idea, but quickly found this wasn't a birthday party theme that was often picked by five year old girls.  So, I spent a lot of hours on Pinterest and Etsy and pieced together a pretty awesome villains party for Quinn.  I ended up finding lots of fun games and ideas, as well as, a cute skirt and hair bows for Quinn.





The only downside was the weather.  We invited 16 kids counting Quinn (11 came), and planned most of the activities to take place in our yard, but a rainy, rainy day forced us inside. 





The guests had to walk the plank when they arrived, and we played Captain Hook ring toss while we waiting for everyone to arrive.  Dalan made both the plank and the ring toss and did an incredible job.  They looked awesome and were a big hit.




Next we got snacks, Captain Hook stole all the forks. so the kids has to stab their food with mini-cocktail swords.  We also had "poisoned" apple juice, and Ursula cookies. 





Then it was time for more games.  We played Bad Guy Bowling with more poisoned apples, and toilet paper rolls with all the villains on them.  The kids each got a goodie bag to collect their fun prizes (the apples for this game) as we went.  Next we played Megamort's Shrink Rays and squirted more of the toilet paper rolls with water guns (which they kept), then was Maleficent's Dragon Pinata. And in the style of Ralunzel, we wacked the piƱata with a frying pan. We then had a Mirror, Mirror...on the Wall Scavenger Hunt. 












It was then time for the Cruella's Cupcakes and to open presents.  Her friends were way too generous, and Quinn got lots of fun new toys and activities. 





Finally, it was time for the special guest to arrive.  The Mistress of Evil herself- MALEFICENT!  The dark fairy came and read a story to the kids.  She was incredible.  The kids were captivated by her the entire time.  They loved her story, and the fun activities.  She was just the right amount of wickedness without being scary.  It was incredible!















Whew!  Another birthday party in the books!  We had a blast!

Princess Quinn

Quinn is in major princess mode these days. She loves Ariel the most, I would say, but it does depend on the day.  Her Little Mermaid figurines from Disneyland go almost everywhere with us. She also loves her princess "barbies." 

She also loves Rapunzel, Snow White, Cinderella, Elsa, and Anna. She also really loves Alice in Wonderland. Why can't she be a princess too?
