Does the prospect of planning your little dude\u2019s birthday make you feel totally powerless at the hands of Shredder and the Kraang? Fear not, big dude! Crafting the perfect turtle-themed party is easier than you think. Here\u2019s our step-by-step guide, from invitations to goody bags to your inevitable post-cleanup victory lap. That\u2019s right, say it: Bookyakasha!<\/span><\/p>\n

Step One: Invitations<\/b><\/p>\n

\"TMNT<\/a>
\n<\/b>You\u2019ll want to send out the gnarliest ninj-itations<\/a>. Print these ones on cardstock or heavyweight paper, then fill them out and send out to friends and family. <\/span><\/p>\n

Step Two: Decorations and Party Favors<\/b><\/p>\n

\"TMNT<\/a>
\n<\/b>All party ninjas must be armed with\u00a0the proper attire. Use\u00a0this template<\/a> to make no-sew felt masks in blue, orange, red, and purple. When guests arrive, they can choose to wear their favorite turtle’s color.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"TMNT<\/a>
\nAnd no ninja turtle\u00a0birthday party is complete without pizza! Hang this printable pizza pendant birthday banner<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0wish a happy, cheesy, saucy birthday to your little dude.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"TMNT<\/a>
\nYou\u2019ll also want to pre-pack these free printable TMNT goody bags<\/a>. Just think green: green paper bags, green gumballs, green glo-sticks. Build on your verdant base on with \u201csewer\u201d gummy worms and this awesome printable coloring page<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Step Three: Activities<\/b><\/p>\n

Once your goodies are bagged and each kid is suited up, it\u2019ll be time for activities!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Donnie<\/a>
\nIf you have some budding scientists in your mist,\u00a0work with them to make this recipe for ooey-gooey green sewer slime<\/a>. Distribute into small containers or\u00a0plastic\u00a0bags to take home. (Friendly notice: you may want to provide smocks and plastic gloves for each child.)<\/span><\/p>\n

Quieter\u00a0guests\u00a0may prefer to start things off with a lower-key activity, like\u00a0coloring<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Step Four: Cake<\/b><\/p>\n

\"TMNT<\/a>
\nIt\u2019s time for dessert, and so arises the perennial question: cake or cupcake? Whichever side you fall on, making birthday treats pizza- or ooze-themed is a totally rad option. Check out this recipe for mutagen cupcakes<\/a>!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"TMNT<\/a>
\nWhile you prep the meal, kids can color in some of the shows principal characters with these printable party placemats<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

And be sure to conjure up some \u201cMutagen Ooze Juice\u201d to wash down the pizza and dessert. Lemonade with green food coloring, anyone? <\/span><\/p>\n

Once dessert, candles, and birthday-song singing is through, send each party guest\u00a0home exhausted, with a belly full of pizza and a bag full of ninja treats. Is your little dude passed out on the couch or running round with frosting face and a wicked sugar high? You are the Splinter to their ninja. It\u2019s time for that victory lap!<\/span><\/p>\n

Make your child\u2019s birthday extra special by setting up a personalized call from their favorite Nickelodeon character when you join the Nickelodeon Birthday Club<\/a>. It\u2019s free and easy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
