A Super Scooby Doo Party

It was only like six weeks late but we finally had Whitney's Scooby Doo friend party.  Thankfully, Whitney was very patient as she waited for a Saturday that would work for everyone.  And it was an awesome party if I do say so myself.

We had roughly an extra 15 people here, so it was a bit crazy.  But we made it work.  First the kids decorated bags for goodies with stamps and stickers and markers.

I told the kids to come get their goodies but when they got there the goodies were missing.

The kids had to follow a bunch of clues to find their prizes.  At the bottom of each note was a clue to the identity of the monster - a footprint, a piece of a bag, a paint brush, some circus peanuts, etc.

Only Whitney was able to figure out that it was the ghost clown who did it.  Will was very good and pretended to be the monster and the kids chased him around the yard.

After finding their treats, we played some Scooby Doo games.  This one was Pin the Glasses on Velma.  The girl who got the closest won a big pair of fake glasses.

Then it was time to make Scooby Doo collars.  It is hard to find small circular foods, but we managed to make some yummy Scooby Doo collars.

Whitney shows off her necklace - I mean collar.

Then it was time to go outside again to do a Feed Scooby and Shaggy relay race.  The kids fed them sandwich pieces.

This was a catch the monster game by trying to drop a box on the escaping villain (who was taped to a truck).

And time to open presents.  Whitney said that was her favorite part of the party.

And finally we decorated dog bone shaped sugar cookies.  That is what Whitney requested instead of cake.

Anyway, it was really fun.  I think the kids had a good time and Whitney was all smiles.  Hooray!  Now I have a few months break before the next party.
