Ben's Seventh Birthday Party

This weekend we finally celebrated Ben's seventh birthday. The party was organized around a lego theme - starting with the cake which was shaped as lego bricks.

Guessing the Lego Bricks
The party started with a scavenger hunt. The clues started in the mailbox and the two teams (spiderman and batman) had to follow clues and collect lego bricks. One of the challenges was to guess the number of lego bricks in a glass jar.

Opening a Layer of the Parcel
Part of the hunt included a game of 'Pass the Parcel'. Each layer of the parcel included a challenge. One of the challenges was standing in a line from youngest to oldest and another was to find the sum of all the boy's ages (51!).

After all the games, the boys had worked up an appetite. Here they are having their snack. Surprisingly we had to cut extra carrots because the carrot sticks were almost as popular as the potato chips....
