Shadow Man Party

I asked Connor what Theme he wanted for his sixth birthday. His response was NOT what I expected. He wanted to have a Shadow Man party. The Shadow Man happens to be the bad guy in the new movie "The Princess and the Frog". I suggested that it would be fun to have a Spider man party, but he really wanted to have a Shadow Man party. Realizing that this boy is only going to turn six once I did my best to give him a Shadow Man party. I had all ready bought spider man wrapping paper, so for his family party he still got all his presents in Spider man paper.Seeing that the store doesn't have stuff around for a Shadow Man birthday party I had to be creative. I thought face cards were close enough. I decorated with black and we played shadow games. We made shadow animals on the wall, and played a game of tag that I called "Don't step on my Shadow". I think the kids had a good time, and I know Connor was pleased with his Shadow Man Party!
