Hotel Transylvania Party
I am a member of a site called Crowdtap (to get more info go here http://bit.ly/My2TEK). It is a site where you log on to collaborate with your favorite brands and earn giftcards, discounts and charitable donations by answering polls, participating in discussions, sampling products and throwing sponsered brand parties. I was lucky enough to be chosen to host a Hotel Transylvania Party.
I invited my brother and sisters and their kids to our Hotel Transylvania Party. I had a lot of fun activities planned for all of the kids and family.
We started off the night with some yummy dinner and then the festivities started. This was a perfect time to host a party to kick off the beginning of the Halloween season.
We started off by coloring some Hotel Transylvania coloring pages that we would use for some games for later.
After the kids were done coloring their pages we had them decorate some pumpkins. They each got to color with marker some scary (or not so scary) pumpkins. The best pumpkin was my niece Brenna's pumpkin. She drew a pumpkin that had a witch, a vampire and a mummy all on a small pumpkin. She was very talented.
After the pumpkin decorating we were ready for some dessert. Sticking with our Hotel Transylvania theme we wanted to make some monster cupcakes. The kids really got into this. Even my 1 year old nephew Sam had a good time (well he really liked the eating of the cupcake part). They came up with some pretty good monsters.
My son had to show me his before and after photo as well.
After we ate our cupcakes we decided to start playing some Hotel Transylvania Games. The first game we played was "Last Man Standing." We hung up the pictures the kids had colored. They had a picture of all the characters on Hotel Transylvania such as Mavis, Dracula, etc. and I had the names of the pictures in a bowl. The kids would stand by any picture they would want to. I would pull a name out of the bowl. If they were standing by that picture they were out. Then they could go stand by a different picture if they want or stay at the same one and I would draw another name. We would keep going and going until the last man was standing and they were the winner.
When we got to the last man standing they got a prize. I was happy to find the perfect prize to give away. I found a little prize pack that had a little mini coloring book with crayons and stickers that was Hotel Transylvania. Once one kid had won the game we started over until everyone got a chance to win.
The last game that we played was like musical chairs. We found the PERFECT Hotel Transylvania song that we played. It was the song of Carly Rae Jeppsen's "Call Me Maybe" only it was a play on the song and it was "Call Me Mavy" (based on the character Mavis). I would play the song and when I stopped the music the kids had to stand by the picture when the music stopped. When I called out the picture if they were standing by it they got a prize (a ghost sucker). We kept going and going until everyone got quite a stash of ghost suckers. It was so fun because the kids just kept going on and on dancing and singing "Call me Mavy." Even two weeks later after the party we still sing the song "Call me Mavy." We love the character Mavis.
It turned out to be a great party and the kids (and adults) had a ton of fun. Coloring, painting, eating, decorating, playing games, dancing, singing, winning prizes, learning all the names of the characters of the movie.
One of our highlights for Hotel Transylvania was when I was out and about with just my husband and kids and we were at the movie theater for Hotel Transylanvia and we ran into a professional basketball for the Utah Jazz, Center Enes Kanton. It is not every day when you are out and about and get a photo opportunity like that. It was amazing.

Getting to host a party like Hotel Transylvania was such a fun opportunity. My kids and nieces and nephews had such a fun time. We had a ball. We got to see an awesome movie and meet a real celebrity because of it.
