For my sons 4th birthday, we decided to go with a Camping Party theme. The invitations read You're invited to Cade's 4th birthday!  We will be camping' eatin' and roastin' marshmallows. I made them on the computer with woods, birds and fish graphics.  When the kids arrived they saw a big sign on ply wood that read "Camp Cade 2001". In the troops came! All 14 of them. Straight down to the basement to have a picnic by the BIG tent.  They ate hotdogs, chips and marshmallows first, and as they finished they came upstairs to do craft. Colored sand art in babyfood jars. As they finished the craft, I took Polaroid pictures of each child holding one of those talking fish and placed them in red fun foam frames shaped like a tent that read Camp Cade 2001. The games included walk the plank w/ a spoonful of plastic bugs, which they got to keep, fish for a party bag and a toucan piñata. The cake had green icing and crushed Oreo's to look like dirt. Complete with a tent, little men and a fun foam sign saying again Camp Cade 2001, it truly looked like a campground. After cake, we did presents and the 2 hours were up. I had intended to play my guitar and sing kids songs around the red and yellow cellophane campfire we made.  The kids had each gotten a flashlight w/ their name written on it and when the flashlights were placed in the cellophane it looked like a real bon fire and very safe. Unfortunately, the piñata took a little longer than expected and the parents started to arrive during the present opening. Oh well, better to have too much planned than not enough!
