Dad suggested we play "pin the nose on the Sphinx" rather than "pin the pyramid on Egypt." Bobo loved this idea. Now I don't have to sacrifice one of my maps. But, I did have to paint a huge Sphinx! Free-hand drawing is not my thing; I'm banking on the fact that most of the little soon to be seven year olds invited to this party won't even know what a Sphinx is - let alone be able to critique my work. This is not just wishful thinking. When Bobo announced to one of her best buddies she was having an Ancient Egypt birthday party, he said, "What's that?"
Ignorance is bliss.
(The theme of this little guy's party was "food fight," in case you're wondering, and involved hundreds of pounds of cooked pasta and individual canisters of ready whip, one for each child).
