Some of the most popular video game characters in history are the Super Mario Brothers. They are plumbers who started out in a Donkey Kong video game. Now Mario and Luigi star in their own games. It seems that most of the time they are trying to rescue Princess Peach from Bowser. Other times they are going around in racing cars. If they are your child’s favorite, consider throwing a Super Mario Brothers birthday party for them.
The perfect invitation for this birthday party is also simple. Anyone familiar with a Super Mario video game will recognize this. Take a piece of card stock and cut it into a perfect square. Make a small, round coin out of a piece of gold foil. Attach the corner so it looks like it comes out of the top of the square. Draw a big question mark on the side of the square. Write the party details on the other side. It is intended to resemble the question mark box that Mario or Luigi hit to make the coins come out.
The perfect activity for this party is to break out the video game console and play some games. Mario Kart is a great game for multiple people. Have small gold cups to hand out as prizes to the winners. Another fun activity is to set up an obstacle course for the party guests. Mario and Luigi are plumbers, so use some pop-up game tunnels like pipes for them to crawl through. Time how long it takes each person to get through the obstacle course.
Your guests will love a buffet of food inspired by Super Mario. Serve them Plumber’s Pie, Toadstool Muffins, Bowser Burgers and Princess Peach Punch. Decorate the area in red and green and fill the boxes with chocolate coins. Create a Mario and Luigi cake with a plumbing pipe as decoration.
These ideas will help create a fun Super Mario Brothers birthday party for your child and their friends.
