Name: Nico (4)
Location: Gig Harbor, Washington
My son decided he wanted a Muppet birthday party this year. I was shocked, considering his super hero obsession of late, but also thrilled to death.
Since Kermit is Nico's favorite of the Muppets, he was our inspiration for a color scheme, green and yellow. I created a Kermit pull string pinata (which came out slightly larger than I intended) using an amazing tutorial from Alicia Policia. Some of our food ideas also came from her.
I searched and searched for other Muppet themed parties to try and find some ideas for activities, etc. but just couldn't find much out there. So we ended up doing a spin on a classic with "Pin the Nose on Gonzo." I also set up a table for the kids to make their own Kermits out of craft foam. Both were big hits with the 4-5 year old crowd. Nico definitely had a 4th birthday party to remember!
Thanks Amy!

Muppets are classic and always fun. I think my favorite Muppet has to be Beaker. What’s yours? Did you see the new movie with Jason Segal. Loved it.
love me some dr. teeth and the electric meyhem
We're doing our nursery in Muppets, and are also vexed by the lack of Muppet themed items. So, we're using what I already have (Kermit has always had my heart), a few things we have found, and bright, Muppet-y colors otherwise. Love the pinata! Might be a good shower idea!
What other foods/snacks are on the table(I can't tell from the picture)? I love the magic potion and jello slices! We are doing my daughter's first birthday in muppets theme and I am looking for all of the great ideas I can get! Thanks :)
Oh please! Oh please! Help!! Can you tell us what else you did on the table and also how you did the make your own Kermit's?
