With the release of the new movie, the popularity of
Superman is growing. I don't think he ever went away, but it's now
becoming easier to find superman items in the store. This should make
your job of finding birthday party supplies extremely easy.
As mentioned above, finding supplies featuring Superman shouldn't be
difficult. Use the following mostly as a checklist for your little guy's
next birthday party.
- Cake
Most cake decorators will have several different Superman layouts. If
you are making your own, you should be able to easily find a small toy
to place on top.
- Ice Cream
A simple item which needs little additional information. Regular ice
cream should work for a Superman party.
- Plastic Forks and Spoons
Superman's colors are red and blue, so purchase these colors if
possible. If you already have some left over from last year, this will
work too. Keep in mind red is also the color of Spiderman!
- Plates and Napkins
These should feature Superman if possible, but go with red and blue if
you must.
- Decorations
Streamers and balloons should be in red and blue only, or Superman
specific if possible.
- Invitations
These MUST feature Superman if you are planning a Superman theme. If you
can't find any, let your son make his own. Save one invitation for your
scrapbook to remember the special day!
Don't forget to get your little superhero involved in the party. After
all, it's HIS special day!

Math Games
for the Active Child
To put it in a nice way, my son is rather squirmy. He doesn't like to
sit still for very long unless he's playing a video game, then it's just
amazing. So instead of constantly telling him to sit down and do his
math, we take it outside or up the stairs, literally...
