My sweet friends ~ I am on Spring Break!! Whoo-hoo!! For those of you who aren’t –I’m sorry but I’m guessing it’s either coming up or already came right?!?! Well I have to share this darling am I even allowed to say that about my own unit??? I hope so because I really, really LIKE this one guys. It’s homo’PHONES’ with phones get it?
homo’phone’ center
I know this part doesn’t have to do with phones but had to add it anyway. Will your kiddos have fun with this? Tell me what you think and I will give away 2 tomorrow. Don’t forget to leave me your email.

Now it’s mom time – My sweet son is 11 and he wanted a Minecraft party — so since I LOVE to plan KIDS parties I was all over it. Notice I said kid parties — my gift lies in the word Kid here. I’d much rather plan a kids party than an adult one — is that weird of me??!?!
Anywho here are some pictures of our amazing day together.
{ creeper cookie pops }
Me making tons of stuff
Creeper ice cream cake
The cake pieces look like Minecraft grass blocks — it was perfect because he didn’t want the coconut grass on top.
We had a bit of a photo booth with mustaches, bow ties, etc. I had to make a creeper mouth though too…right?!?!
Cover boxes with brown and bunch up green paper on top to look like a grass brick for a decoration.
Draw creeper faces on green buckets from party city – you have favor ‘bags’.
Game – shoot the creeper – they tried to hit his ‘nose’ with a nerf arrow gun…they loved this. The girls marked where they hit with numbered circle labels to keep track of who was the closest.
TNT – I covered toiled paper rolls with red paper and added TNT with my cricket…then threw in some red licorice. Of course real minecraft tnt is square I know that…LOL
Pick up some green balloons and draw on your own creeper face.
We had a blast!!! If you have stayed with me this long don’t forget to leave a comment for the homo’phone’ unit.
