We have done quite a few super hero themed parties around these parts with our friends at Target (find Spider-Man and the Ninja Turtles here), but the Avengers might just be our favorite. Our kids have been in love with each character on their own for years now, so seeing them each come together and do their thing as a team is just about the coolest thing our boys can think of! Today is an easy at-home playdate idea or even just a fun adventure to take as a family! All you need are a handful of training stations and your super hero gear so each kiddo can give their favorite character a whirl! For the at home training stations all you need are some laundry baskets, yarn and some imagination! We created the city scape with skinny duct tape and slips of black paper!
First up, space the baskets apart for agility training. Being quick on your feet and avoiding obstacles is a vital super hero skill.
Then with your trusty yarn you can create a tunnel of lasers to avoid by ducking, jumping and having the utmost balance and control.
Then stack towers for target practice! Shooting them down with only your Iron Man laser glove (or a bouncy ball!)
Or your Captain America Disc Launching Shield (find the mask here):
Or maybe just smashing with your Hulk Fists!
As we mentioned in our sneak peek on Instagram this week, Hulk Fists are for everyone.
Our kids happily Avenged all afternoon and the only clean up was a handful of baskets! That is a win-win if we’ve ever seen one. Find a whole set of Avengers dress-ups here!
