Intriguing isn’t it? My 6 year old is obsessed with brains for some reason. So, for his birthday I decided to make a brain cake. It was sooo easy once I looked up “brain cake” online. I baked a couple of round cakes, slapped them together and then coiled rolled fondant on top. I added some raspberry jam for the bloody effect. It was pretty gross when it was all done. Even my 13 year old thought it was disgusting. Mission accomplished!
I also had a Halloween themed birthday party for him. I had all these games planned which I thought would take up the two hours I allotted for the party. We played 3 games in only 15 minutes! Luckily, my mom was there to sing some silly songs with them.
We played mummy wrap, pin the mouth on the jack-o-lantern, daylight/darkness (vampire version of red light/green light) and the Frankenstein walk. Before we opened presents, I read a scary story to them while they passed around bowls of “body parts.”
The party was such a great success and I loved every minute of it too! The kids were so cute dressed up in their costumes. They had so much fun. I can’t wait to do it again next year!
